@DrKateTO@g_meslin I’d like to think that PM Carney is carefully keeping Ford’s hypocritical friendship alive and well by NOT killing the deal today. Instead, he will spend months (years?) working this out as Economists do, namely through biz case practicalities. YYZ can do more w/less.
@kristynwongtam They just make stuff up to bolster their claims. It’s all being driven by a chronically insecure man (Ford) who has lived his entire life without true accountability. Narcissists use bulls**t and bluster to substitute for actual proof of concept. Fake it til you make it 100%.
#realcanadiansuperstore Every now & then we stop here on our travels. Time to stock up the RV. And then we realize your carts need coins to unlock. We never have coins post-Covid. So we get back in our rig and shop elsewhere. In Whitehorse now. Do you really lose that many carts?
@TomPark1n I can only hope PM Carney has told his folks to stay quiet while he gently pushes this agenda down the road a ways. Carney has never backed anything that didn’t have a solid biz plan, and Ford’s back-of-napkin #’s don’t represent anything other than talk.
@ronmortgageguy@VancouverSun We’ve got a sweet waterfront condo west Toronto. Maybe we should just sell it in time for Fall and keep traveling for another couple years. When we add *only* maint fees and property tax it’s cash in our pocket vs a market that might go up 5%
@OntLiberal@fordnation Sweet political revenge for @OntLiberal would be to block Ford’s unilateral and dictatorial expropriation of the Toronto Islands as he serves his JP Morgan masters Billy Bishop on a platter.
@cityoftoronto@ausmalik Waste of time and money if Ford expropriates the islands to build additional runways and infrastructure. Also, new approach path flight rules will eliminate most of the harbour traffic.
@CityNewsTO Weak. Oh my god, so weak. Doug Ford is smarter than so many of us believed he was. His time in City Hall taught him that he could easily be the line wolf amongst all the chickens.
@markrmcqueen It will ultimately cost us billions in long term devaluation of current and future space, everything from work to live to play to tourism. Find me an airport anywhere in the world servicing 10M pax/yr that is nothing but industry surrounding it. No coincidence.
@PrabSarkaria@NEWSTALK1010 This is complete and total fabrication to protect outside investors. YYZ will deliver more passengers with its expansion than Billy Bishop ever could, and without destroying Toronto’s waterfront. This administration is putty in the hands of business people.
@Thetrilliumca@CharliePinkerto That moron started with a Ferris wheel proposal for Toronto’s Cherry Beach and, once told it was impossible for tourists to enjoy it during the winter, added a monorail proposal from downtown. What is it with this guy and round things?
@BradMBradford You sound a LOT like PP, always criticizing and making everything bad on the planet the fault of somebody else. Having you fail as Mayor would involve years of listening to you dodge responsibility while blaming everybody else. No thanks.
@NoJetsTO@g_meslin I’ve got more bad news for you. It’s impossible to delver the stated passenger goal with just one runway. At present YYZ can handle diversions due to crosswinds. Impossible at higher volumes. Ergo, additional runway. Explains expropriation of entire island chain.
