Without addressing the 401 thats just going to be more of a bottleneck channeling more cars quicker to it....

Um, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't the last provincial government sell off 407 to a Euro consortium on a 99 year lease? :huh:

So this means in effect that the feds will be paying money to extend a highway which is not owned by the provincial Crown and the profits from the tolls from this new section are going to the Euro consortium?

.... your tax dollars at work :rolleyes:

BTW: Doing something about the 401... thanks to the brilliant City of Toronto planners allowing building to practically abut the 401, there's nothing they can do about it, short of making the lanes narrower and hell, I don't want that! We have enough stupid drivers out there with the lane widths we have :ph34r:

The Harris Provincial government should not have cancelled all the subway lines that were under construction at the time. Right now at least on Eglinton Av all I see are TTC buses full of people that should be on that subway line but are up on those buses causing congestion, just imagine if all lanes on Eglinton were able to move instead we have diamond lanes because the buses have to move around. All this bostering by Harper is just an pre-election ploy to grab more votes when his government crumbles.

Laterz :)
