      Dude, it's not the Bomber's problem when some dumb bum TTC driver decides to drive a streetcar into a lake.... That idiot driver should be fired.

      @@kevinn1158 Now I know what I'm going to say is not all correct, but I'm just going to play devil's advocate for a second. Given that rails can be extremely slippery with the slightest moisture, the driver may have failed to brake in time before the giant pool. Even if this was not the case, where else is he supposed to go? sure he should have stopped but then if he couldn't, he can't just go around, streetcars are not cars, they cannot go around what the tracks to not.

      because we have greedy out-of-touch city councilors who are finally being shortened in numbers. (not enough though)

      Would you like to have around 200 - 300 new buses cramming the road instead?
