    Be my guest, I have no proof what documents you see or do not see. Either way, you are not a decision maker.

    I do not believe you are a representative of the government, or the government's intentions. Regardless of your track record on this forum.

    Respectfully, without knowing your real life identity and/or professional relationship with government, I cannot take your word for it. If the Premier's Office or the Ministry of Transportation puts out a statement to that effect, good. Otherwise, it is an unverified statement on an internet chat.

    Thanks for the advice. I didn't know that I could reach out to my MPP.

    You are missing the point. Why does the provincial government need to acquire a major municipal road in the first place? Why have they not brought it to the public's attention? Why have they not explained their rationale for needing this land to the public?

    Billy Bishop Airport Expansion?

    The federal government may not have that power by law. However, if Ottawa decides not to go along with the airport expansion, Doug Ford’s supposed justification for all of this expropriation collapses.

    Billy Bishop Airport Expansion?

    Referring to the images in the following article, tell me @mcbg1, why does the province require so much of the city's land to improve Billy Bishop Airport? Why is provincial ownership of Bathurst Street, from south of the Gardiner Expressway to Queens Quay West, and all of Eireann Quay...

    The Ontario government will be expropriating Little Norway Park:

    Toronto Toronto | Eglinton Line 5 Crosstown West Extension | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Renforth is interesting because Metrolinx's station map seems to suggest that there will not be a Line 5 extension to Pearson Airport, despite what we occasionally hear from the government, and the media. Maybe Metrolinx will install a curve for Line 5 to head up Commerce Boulevard? Right now, I...

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    Is it still the case that all GO train lines terminate at Union Station? Or, do inbound Barrie trains become outbound Stouffville trains, for example?
