Berlin, Hamburg and Amsterdam make Toronto look like a steaming heap of developing world shite.

I don't really resent the developing world comparison. In a lot of ways, Toronto does have more in common with the likes of Mexico City or Shanghai than it does Amsterdam or Berlin - its an emerging city as opposed to one thats come onto the world stage centuries ago - and suitably, its built form shows. Rather messy and unkempt and full of contrasts. Not a bad thing.

Kind of sad that our infrastructure resembles that found in a developing country though...as is the case across Canada, and will continue to be the case for at least the next 4 years.
