In 1974, the CBC reported that the province had purchased an "unproven" system using elevated tracks that would chart transit routes along existing railways and hydro rights-of-way. They would spend $750 million on a 56-mile network comprising five routes, three of which would "terminate in Metro centre," with the other two being crosstown routes. ...
Eight years later, the Progressive Conservatives were still the government in power and reporter Robert Fisher described traffic congestion as a "major problem" that the province was ready to confront. To that end, Transportation Minister Jim Snow presented a roomful of municipal leaders with a regional transit plan on a map almost as tall as he wa...

Premier Bob Rae brought out a throng of helmet-wearing construction workers to announce the NDP's "exciting" $1.5-billion transit plan for Toronto in 1993. Rather than showing off any new plans, Rae pledged to "speed up" previously announced projects, said reporter Colleen McEdwards. That included an extension all the way to York University which h...
David Miller had been elected twice as Toronto's mayor, and Dalton McGuinty had accomplished the same as the Liberal premier of Ontario when they got together to announce full provincial funding for a plan, developed by the city, called Transit City. The plan relied less on subways and more on rapid transit on major east-west routes like Finch and ...
