Although transit alone does not make a great city, this is a great start. Would like to see this fit into a higher level development plan for the horseshoe. By plan I don't mean just transit planning but province building.]]>

Now it's Harper's turn to come up with the money or be vilified in the next election.   John Tory would be wise to not criticize the plan.  It seems the Conservative and he PCs (they are different, after all) are going to have difficulties with this proposal.  Good for them during an election year.]]>

Haha, yes Eric you're right. Not totally impractical. Just impractical. I cringe every time I have to watch an elderly person or parent with a stroller try to get on and off. ]]>

"The streetcars we have now, though very charming, are totally impractical."

Well, not totally, because all sorts of people use them for their intended purpose every day.]]>

I can't say I agree Francois (my cedille isn't working...). I think you've made my point for me by saying the city is too densely populated. That's exactly why we need the subway to go further. Plus I'm sure York university students would appreciate it. Not having to live near campus is a great thing. I also don't understand why so many people are so against a light rail system in the city. The streetcars we have now, though very charming, are totally impractical. ]]>

As long as some of that money goes towards either a subway or LRT to Pearson, I'm happy.]]>

I see no valid reason to extend the subway into York Region and make it even easier to live farther away. And don't get me started on the streetcar project. The city is getting too densely populated for that;  what we need is large-scale subway development within the city. (I'm not holding my breath.)]]>

Wow, how far into York region?  Like, Newmarket far?  Because that would rule unimaginably!]]>

I agree Sameer. Faster, electric GO service is great news, even for TTC keeners who rarely take the GO train. 

I guess now we just have to wait and see what the federal government says. Let's just cross our fingers, shall we? ]]>

Fantastic news!  Let's cross our fingers and hope that this goes through, and that the project is kept near budget estimates.]]>

Wow!  I'm impressed with the large funding budget, and tremendously surprised that the Yonge subway will be extended even further.  If only this had happened 15 years ago, my daily commute to Markham wouldn't suck as much.]]>
