Congrats to Montréal where the next phase of their REM metro system opened today! Work started in 2017. Now 50-km of new transit is open for riders! 🎊

Meanwhile, a certain 19-km LRT in Toronto has been under construction since 2011 and there's no opening date in sight... 😤

Public Inquiry now!

line 6 finch west begins revenue service demonstration this saturday, the final stretch to opening. this process takes 30 days, meaning you can expect to ride the LRT in the 4th-5th week of october (barring any issues).

so, line 6 is now officially ahead of line 5 to open. made that bet in 2022 🙃

Sure, a government study found building the 401 tunnel might cause roadway collapse and put the public in danger, but don’t worry: the premier has already forgotten all about it. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

"Are you trying to delay and defer what is actually crucially needed transit?" Councillor Alejandrao Bravo asks Bradford.

Bradford says he is trying to "anchor" the RapidTO plans to the World Cup, since that was part of the rationale.

"Defer and delay!" Bravo says again.

LOL GOODBYE
Back to RapidTO. Councillor Pasternak says he'll vote against the transit lanes for Bathurst & Dufferin. He says he would prefer an expansion of the subway network. "These lanes will end up causing gridlock, air pollution, taking away parking — it is not something that will go well."

y’all some of these Toronto councillors are so fucking stupid
July 23, 2025 at 5:42 PM
what a loser
"RapidTO! It should be CongestionTO! I think it's rubbish — and a lot of people do as well!" declares Councillor Stephen Holyday. He says opposition to these transit lanes has "galvanized" Toronto.
