Workout for TTC Employees

I saw this video response to Adam Giambrone's video on Youtube announcing that he is running for mayor. I would have made my own video response to Adams video but I don't need to thanks to 'Jogbird'.

TTC Screws up maps

The CN Tower is a 10-minute jaunt from St. Andrew subway station. But a new TTC map posted at the station doesn't show that.

According to the map, the Toronto landmark doesn't exist. Neither does the Rogers Centre or City Hall.

The maps, intended to show transit users what city sites are nearby, have been raising eyebrows since they started to appear three weeks ago.

Full Story

TTC Chair Adam Giambrone says "part of the issue is there is no one who oversees map creation". Well Mr. Giambrone, as the TTC Chair I would say that automatically makes it your job since there is no literate manager or otherwise qualified TTC employee to do it, and obviously you are not doing your job very well. Furthermore, for a paper like The Star to be reporting this says quite a bit considering how many typos and spelling errors they print everyday! This is just one more pathetic example of what Toronto has deteriorated to under the Miller regime.

Update: Google Transit

You may recall my post regarding Google Transit and the TTC. I wrote to TTC Chair, Adam Giambrone to ask if they had any plans to become part of the Google Transit site and this is Mr. Giambrones reply:

"The TTC is aware of this Google site and have been in touch with
representatives from Google to discuss options related to it. At this time
however, there are no concrete plans for the TTC to be added to this
site."

Thanks to Adam for getting back to us so promptly. We think he's doing a great job as TTC Chair (and is one of the cutest politicians ever) and the TTC seems to be getting better these days because of his hard work!
