Ah yes, Dundas Street, the favourite route of Etobicoke’s conservative municipal politicians to drive to City Hall. Rob Ford drove it. Doug Ford drove it. And you know Holyday drives it.
Matt ElliottHolyday explains why he will oppose this report on implementing transit priority measures to speed up the Dundas streetcar. "Dundas is a really important route for residents of Etobicoke when they drive into the city ... it's an essentially important street for east-west movement."
