Yes Toronto made mistakes in the past but show me a north American city that didn't put the car first in the last century. Montreal actually built more hwy's in it's core then Toronto ever did. It's not a bad thing just a fact.


Go ahead, take a look for yourself ssiguy

If Toronto is putting the car first I'd hate to be whatever is second.
