(When we initially wrote this post we believed the Councillor Karygiannis was merely a destructive voice yelling from the margins. We have since learned that politics have transpired to make his mistaken and problematic voice relevant.

A group of us from Scarborough Transit Action spoke at the #ExecComm meeting on June 28th. Our demand for an LRT network instead of the One Stop Extension triggered an overwhelmingly negative response from Mayor Tory and his allies. The most absurd being Councillor De Baeremaeker’s claim that any opposition to this project constituted a “wall of hate” toward Scarborough.
In Friday's edition of The Globe and Mail, it was revealed that the Scarborough subway costs are expected to rise by $900 million to $2.9 billion.
The $900 million additional cost estimate for the Scarborough Subway Extension (SSE) proves once again, an LRT network is, by far, the best choice for Scarborough transit riders.

What is the plan for Scarborough Centre? This seems like a simple question, but it is one that has us confused. Very confused.
On the one hand, a one-stop subway extension is included as part of the proposed Scarborough Rapid Transit Network because it “Supports the development of Scarborough Centre as a vibrant regional urban centre.” Those of us using Scarborough Centre station on the RT today look out at the fields of parking surrounding the mall and Civic Centre can be excused for thinking that the plan is to re-purpose those lots into the type of place you would want to ride transit to, i.e., a vibrant urban centre.
On May 31st, City Hall will vote on a Low Income Pass. We've been waiting all year for an opportunity to 'speak up' for lower TTC fares and we need to get active and get ready.
In preparation for the vote at City Hall, on Thursday, May 12th, we are hosting a Civic Engagement Training Workshop in Scarborough at Scarborough Village Recreation Centre, 3600 Kingston Road (Kingston and Markham) from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. where you can:
With the impending widespread implementation of Presto on the TTC it is possible that there could be proposal to change the TTC fare structure from the current “single-ride within Toronto” arrangement.

Last evening I rode the 134C from Scarborough Town Centre to Centennial College for the mayoral debate. Although I suspect that I was one of the few debate participants who came by transit, the bendy buses going the other way were loaded to the doors with students.

Last Tuesday September 23rd, members of Scarborough Transit Action and CodeRedTO attended a transit talk at Agincourt Collegiate Institute. Also in attendance were Scarborough MPPs Bas Balkissoon, Soo Wong, Minister of Transportation, Steven Del Duca and Ward 38 council candidate, Kevin Winson . 
Today, TTCriders released its first ever report card evaluating the TTC’s performance from the perspective of TTC users.
The report card rates the TTC on how well it has done in achieving five goals important to TTC users which are key parts of TTCriders' Vision: creating fair and affordable fares; building modern, fast transit to all corners of the city as fast as possible; making public transit fully accessible transit; providing frequent service that connects all of Toronto; and environmental sustainability.
