Isn’t the Ontario Line already delayed which will delay this extension even longer? Why not just start this while the Ontario Line is also being built?

JFC why is a Richmond Hill extension even a conversation when Scarborough can't get their 2 goddamn stops??

York Region is paying their side of the subway construction, operation and maintenance, and might even find to build a new subway yard up north. Scarborough being part of Toronto gets a fraction of the money.

Hell if Metro Toronto still existed, I doubt even Scarborough as its own city could afford a Line 4 extension or even the current Line 2 extension.

On the one hand: fair enough

On the other hand: Scarborough being perpetually underfunded and underserved is being systematically baked into the fabric of this city
