    As I said, bad timing and I'm not defending it. It would be naive to believe that everything a senior executive does is done via Zoom...

    There are two types of balanced Cantilever design - with precast and with cast-in-place. Typically, they need several miles of bridge...

    Thanks, My quick math if this was done in 2012 or so. Eglinton Grade separated to STC = $2B (extra over Eglinton LRT). 8 km...

    I was hoping to have a tunnel there - but I guess it would still be the same effect of not being opened.

    Nice map. Something like that would have worked well. I do think branching could work on Line 2 or any subway line in Toronto, but not...

    I had the B-D line following Eglinton - back when the Eglinton Line was planned to go up to STC (circa 2011). This would have been a...

    I think the same thing happened in Romania and in France. The EU doesn't like a leader and mysteriously they come up with charges...

    First off, it's too embarrassing to close Eglinton from Laird to Kennedy to elevate it. What's done is done and that mistake must be...

    Please do not accuse other members of lying. Its a school-yard type taunt and it will naturally lead to escalation. You're welcome...
