    What part of Toronto’s new transit plan do you think will have the biggest impact-more stations, faster commutes, or better connections?
    Note: In the video, for the Eglinton Crosstown LRT, we mentioned at 05:15 a September 2024 opening date, with the exception that "uncertainties remain". Well, it seems the uncertainties won, and there will be no opening in 2024. We apologize for the outdated info.

    It's too bad these videos weren't created by people with subject matter expertise, rather than just reading info off of Wikipedia. The video overlooked a number of other significant projects..

    Fun little transit fact...
    When it was first announced, the Eglinton Cross-Town LRT was scheduled to be completed by the time my daughter was entering grade 10. Our family was relieved her 1-hr morning bus commute would turn into a 30-mins LRT ride! Grade 10, came...it went...grade 11 came...it went....grade 12 came...and she graduated (still no cross-town)... She's now out of the city in first year university and guess what? We're hoping by her graduation from her bachelor's degree she MIGHT get a chance to actually ride the LRT that was supposed to take her to grade 10 classes.

      the whole video is recycled clips from other users and the speech is a natural speech voice synthesizer. A growing trend for "husslers" is to use AI generated scripts and voice overs to generate content which is then edited/assembled by cheap, for hire video editors online. I've seen people promoting these types of gigs online as a way to generate free money without lifting a finger and its honestly so disappointing. soooo many of these types of "creators" making videos about construction projects bc its so easy to rip information from other sources and regurgitate it with AI.

      This video is really off on many points but not that one actually. I find it also surprising, but Montreal Metro is the third most used subway system in North America after NYC Subway and Mexico City Subway and just before Toronto Subway that is in fourth place. It doesn't include other form of transit like buses, this is why Toronto isn't in 1st place. Including all of the Transit agency, Toronto is first, Montreal second.

      The TTC carries more than the STM (Montreal transit agency).
      However, the Montreal Metro carries slightly more passengers than the Toronto’s subway. Montreal and Toronto’s metros are roughly the same length and have roughly the same number of stations, with Montreal having slightly larger train sets.

      The Scottish pronunciation of Eglinton is similar to the English pronunciation:
      Final 't' -- in some areas of Scotland, the final "t" of a syllable is not pronounced. For example, "bit" might sound more like "bih".
      ***Don't see anything about a missing ''g'' which gets misplaced and mispronounced as ''Ellington'' (a common British name and likely was confused by the narrator, which is why we're poking fun at it)...

    I find it amusing that you use maps of the Greater Toronto Area and call it Toronto while showing the GO transit network which has a far larger reach outside the city limits and has its own expansion construction underway. You should also not show possible expansions (i.e. Sheppard East subway) that have not funding or even a possible plan. the LRT's, thanks to fighting between the builders and the province (Metrolinx) are delayed until mid 2025 at the earliest.
