Once again, I ask that context be added - a short summary or a reason why - whenever a link to an article is posted here as a link. Not everyone subscribes to every newspaper. Not everyone wants to click on a BlogTO link or a tweet.

Sometime copy and past does not work well nor I have the time to fix it. Some sites have their pages setup to not allow cut and paste,

Never post from twitter, BlogTO as well a few others.

Like others, there are things that are behind paywalls and I refused to pay the $1,000's per year to gain full access, let along seeing part of it to do what you want.

You can buy the newspaper or get an on-line subscription at this link. The mild-mannered reporters at this great metropolitan newspaper have to be paid somehow.

Don't mean to get too off-topic, but just posting "blocked by paywall" is super not necessary on here. If you are blocked, that's on you and there's no way the poster can know if your IP has used-up their free views for the month and/or if you have a subscription. And yes, with the ad market having crumbled, this how journalism increasingly happens.

You can use 12ft.io to bypass paywalls. It works almost all the time!

Blocked by paywall

Hmm, I didn't experience the paywall. However, if you have a TPL membership (it's free) then you have access to a multitude of news streams. So if there are paywalled articles you can view them through one of the portals. My usual goto is this one:

Canadian Newsstream​

Canadian Newsstream

Full-text articles from major Canadian newspapers and several Toronto community newspapers.

www.torontopubliclibrary.ca

But one needs an "account" at the Toronto Public Library.

Please also consider before posting that I don't want information that contradicts my version of reality. Also, TikTok and YouTube only please.

How is one supposed to know that the poster doesn't know that it's blocked by paywall.

Could Metrolinx and TTC do a talent search for a new song to commemorate the opening of Line 5 along with the new light rail vehicles?

We could try to get the Shuffle Demons to compose the Eglinton LRV song.

After all, they composed the Spadina Bus song. Yes, they have re-formed after breaking up.

I don't think we need a song for the opening of the line. There wasn't any for any of the others except for the TTC subway song

With Open Doors only 3 months away, what will ML have open for it?

As it stands, only parking to be have to see stations other Mount Dennis are Caledonia, Lard, Bayview subject using local plaza spots. Trying to find parking for the others stations will be a bitch.

What every stations get uses, would be nice to see ghost trains like they did for the Spadina Subway Open Doors stations passing the station.

Keelesdale, Science Centre, Bayview are connected with e-w + n-s service as well Cedarvale depending where it is at the time. Don't see Yonge being view at this time.

Why would they need parking for Doors Open? Most Doors Open spaces don’t offer parking.

If only there were buses along Eglinton Avenue, where the Crosstown LRT will be? Oh wait...

Plus resurfacing the roadway itself along Eglinton Avenue.

I guess you haven't Seen car folks pull up to open doors looking for a place to park?? Been asked a number of times over the years where can I park and said no clue considering I did for a few locations.

Some of of the out lines doors you need a cars to get to as transit sucks getting to/from them as well a lot of transit travel time.
