Not that any of this exonerates Miller, but the TTC is essentially half of Toronto's budget. If anyone needs to figure out how to do more with less, it's them.
Of course, Miller doesn't actually understand that, he was just dumping his own problems onto the TTC, just as he was trying to dump them onto the taxpayers before that.
Oh, and notice how there's no background, context, or opposing viewpoints presented in the article? Right, that's because it's the Star. Seriously... please don't post material from that rag. |
+1.... yes that's right digi I agree with you. Hell has freeken froze over. Except for the Star = Rag comment. All media sucks and has bias. If you really want to be well informed you have to search for various sources of information yourself.
The TTC does have a bloated budget and it sucks that they use the threat of fare hikes and service cuts when they could very easily trim "in house costs". I know cause I've worked there, there are employees there that do fuck all. The only problem is if in house cuts ever happened the union would strike and we wouldn't have TTC.
Let us not forget that its not only the TTC saying that they will need to make budget cuts. This threat by Miller has been extended to many areas.
