Best non-quote of the day
Is it me or is this the best notable non-quote you have seen in awhile? In other words, the long-awaited subway to York University will be completed "sometime in the future". Aside from some likely inflammatory comments in the early Harris years, has not every right-minded person in Toronto always known that "eventually" the subway would have to get extended? Wasn't it always just a question of "financial issues"? Is this news? Well done, Greg Sorbara, on making the government's position of "someday, we might have money to do this...if other people pay for it," a news story.

I agree that Sorbara's non-news news is an achievement in itself, but it is good to remember that there were tunneling machines digging in the ground in 1995, and they managed to get as far as a completed Downsview station and a big hole underneath Eglinton West. The Harris government did a little more than merely make nasty comments, they did in fact cancel ongoing work and pour dirt in the tunnels. Of course, that simply makes non-committment committments like this one seem like a step forward.
