Ontario Budget provides funds for every Ontarian to move to Alberta

Well people, I'm totally swamped with work right now, but I couldn't let something as momentous and exciting as the release of the Ontario budget happen without my commentary.

As many of you know, the Alberta budget was released a couple of days ago. According to Finance Minister McClellan, the new funding strategy will be to provide every Albertan over the age of 3 one million dollars and a set of 24- karat gold steak knives.

Here in Ontario, we're getting a subway to York University. A fucking desolate place that people don't go to unless they absolutely have to.

How'dya like them apples?

Emma,

Before you completely write-off the idea for a subway to York University proposed by the Ontario Government I think you should drive down to campus at 5:00pm on a weekday night and then re-evaluate your stance on the issue. As a former student of York, I can honestly say that sitting in traffic at Keele/Steeles is worse than anything I have ever sat in. Not to mention the 30,000 + students who have to wait over an hour at time for a bus since there are only a few available to transport them back to the closest major station. It once took me over an hour to drive one block. Do not forget that York that "desolate" place is Canada's largest University with 10's of thousands of students who deserve the right not to have to allot 3 hours for travel time from wherever they live. I think that a subway to and from York is actaully one of the best possible ways the gov't could have chosen to spend the taxpayers dollars.
