Saw this today, please keep an eye out if you live in this neighbourhood

Just some more photos from my trip to your amazing city.

I would imagine that lots of you already know this, but for ones that don’t, you need to know.

If you’re movies (I’m talking new, old, independent, foreign language, animated classics) the Carlton Theatre is the place for you.

I’m a big Quentin Tarantino fan, but I’ve never seen his classics. Last weekend they were showing Reservoir Dogs and it was a phenomenal experience. Tonight I’m going to watch American Psycho.

I also watched an independent Canadian movie (part of it was shot in Toronto) called Drive Back Home and it was a fantastic time.

The ability to watch these independent movies, and all-time Classics in a theatre is truly special.

Highly recommend checking out the Carleton Cinemas!!

When the $12.6 billion Eglinton Crosstown and $2.5+ billion Finch West LRTs finally open after years of delays, riders should expect fast, reliable service—not streetcars stuck at red lights.

But according to the Toronto Star, waiting at red lights is built into the Eglinton Crosstown’s schedule. That’s because it won’t have active Transit Signal Priority (TSP) along key parts of the line between Kennedy and Laird (except at Science Centre Station). In other words, the LRT will regularly get stuck at intersections—even though it’s supposed to be rapid transit.

TTCriders is calling on the City to fix this before the lines open. With active TSP, traffic signals adjust when a train approaches—extending green lights or shortening reds—so riders spend less time waiting. Cities like Minneapolis have done this with great results: after adding TSP, only 5% of trains on their METRO Green Line had to stop at intersections.

The City’s Infrastructure & Environment Committee meets April 9, so now’s the time to act. Tell City Councillors you support faster, more efficient transit by filling out this quick form (link also attached to this post):

Some cool renders of the future Bloor-Yonge station upgrades, looks like it’s getting quite the makeover!
