Finally, some vision!

TheStar.com | GTA | Chop Gardiner, Miller says

No shocker, really, that I'm pretty happy about this. I've said before that the whole thing should come down.

What I love about this is the question from Denzil Minnan-Wong:

"Who's going to pay for it? We already have a $300 million backlog in road repairs, so it's logical to assume that this will come at a cost. What roads will not be repaired or repaved that are already falling apart?"
-- Denzil Minnan-Wong

It's almost funny that he can't see the answer staring him in the face. (Almost funny because this guy has a say in the direction of the city.) Well, just so Mr. Minnan-Wong doesn't hurt himself trying to think of it, here's the answer: The money to do this today will come because we won't have to pay to fix this part of the Gardiner tomorrow! And the road that will not be fixed if we do this is the Gardiner between Jarvis to the Don Valley Parkway!

On a sad note, I will miss this part of the Ride for Heart, but that's a small sacrifice to get back our waterfront.
