The Empire Club of Canada Presents: Progress on Transit Expansion in the Greater Golden Horseshoe Metrolinx is undertaking the largest transit expansion program in North America, delivering a $75-plus billion capital plan over the next 20 years. Metrolinx, while also operating GO Transit, UP Express and PRESTO, is building an integrated regional transit system that will create exciting new possibilities in the region and provide economic and environmental benefits for our communities. As people are returning to transit to get where they need to go and we continue to build back ridership, Metrolinx, under the leadership of CEO Phil Verster, is transforming the transit system to connect communities and meet the expanding needs for the Greater Golden Horseshoe, which is expected to grow to 5 million people by 2051. On February 13, 2023, the Empire Club is pleased to host Phil Verster, CEO of Metrolinx, in a sit-down discussion with esteemed journalist Anita Sharma. Phil will provide an update on Metrolinx's capital and construction projects and discuss how Metrolinx is working together with communities to build and deliver a seamless transportation network, getting people where they need to go better, faster and easier.

GO Transit, the Toronto Commuter System, has recently been running trial trains to London, Ontario, a city 4 hours away from Toronto. This route, if implemented, would be GO Transit's longest route, and one of the longest commuter rail routes anywhere in the world. In this episode, we discuss the merits of such a service, and our own thoughts on whether a route like this would be feasible.

I just love trains. I love traveling in them, I love talking about them, I love studying transit maps. Meet Anne Marie Aikins, former nurse, current spokesperson of Metrolinx, I couldn't have found anybody else who could match my passion for trains other than her.  We talk about ever expanding plans of Go Transit lines, impact of Presto cards, Covid measures in trains, using Morse code to prevent birds from crashing into glass and the upcoming green measures for transit services.

Guest: Ben Spurr, the Star's transportation reporter The pandemic has been near catastrophic for public transit. Ridership dropped for the TTC, costing the transit service millions in fare revenue and the Ontario government more than $140 a ride as the province covered the cost of near-empty GO Transit and UP Express trips. But the worst could still be to come and the fear of the "death spiral" remains a real possibility. Today on "This Matters," we explain the pain and drain of the "transit death spiral" and whether how we move in a city post-pandemic will be led by cars instead of buses and subways.

A fasinating picture of what the bus means to people. A family doctor from Larder Lake near Timmins says it delivers organ donations and medication.

Despite conventional wisdom about there being no news in August, over 100 people went to Margaret Greene Park last week to confront City councillors, staff, and Metrolinx reps about a plan to build a traction power substation in a portion of the park. The events in the west end capture in a microcosm of big concerns about public engagement, and development running roughshod over neighbourhood concerns. As you've surely heard,  Metrolinx, the crown corporation that owns and operates GO Transit, posted a virtual town hall outlining their plan to electrify the Kitchener GO Train line. One slide identified the placement of something called a traction power substation, or TPS, on a trail that runs from Margaret Greene Park behind some residential homes on Ferman Drive. The infrastructure, which is usually the size of cargo container, will change the shape of the park, and the implications did not go unnoticed. The way that Metrolinx has handled this public engagement, and the behind the scenes discussions with City staff on the placement of the TPS that even seemed to catch Ward 4's councillors unawares, has fit into an increasing common narrative. For years, people have been feeling more and more cut out of the planning process, and in the case of Margaret Greene Park people are no longer willing to stand for it. This week, we've got two people who are standing up to Metrolinx. This week’s guests are Crenda King and Ashley Lewis who both live in the neighbourhoods around Margaret Greene Park, and they both have a new found sense of political activism to protect this area that means so much to them and their families. This week's podcast will take you to the park where King and Lewis will talk about their concerns, their thoughts about the process so far, and whether or not they trust City Hall, Metrolinx, and other authorities to respect their point of view when it comes to the fate of their beloved neighborhood park. So let's go to the park and talk about how to save it on this week's Guelph Politicast! Metrolinx has extended the deadline for the virtual town hall until August 28, and you can find those materials and leave your input here. And you can keep up with the fight to protect Margaret Greene Park at the "Save Our Greenspace: Margaret Greene Park" Facebook page here. The host for the Guelph Politicast is Podbean. Find more episodes of the Politicast here, or download them on your favourite podcast app at iTunes, Stitcher, Google Play, and Spotify.

Many people depend on public transit and one of the busiest in the province is the Go Transit system. How's it holding up and how are they protecting passengers and front line staff. To help us with the conversation is Anne Marie Aikens. Anne Marie is the Manager of Strategic Communications at Metrolinx

Premier Doug Ford took to Ontario News Now, (the PC party’s social media “news” channel), to endorse Pelee Island wines. The move sparked an immediate, if not kneejerk, response from critics who called for a boycott of the Niagara region winery. While the boycott may have been overboard, the premier faces legitimate complaints that he and his ministers give preferred treatment to those who cut big cheques for the party. Transportation Minister Caroline Mulroney floated the idea of selling naming rights at five GO Transit stations. The government’s even prepared to sell naming rights to quiet zones and washrooms.  Green Party Leader Mike Schreiner has come up with his own plan to clean up the political appointment process at Queen’s Park. But can it rise above politics. And we wrap up what appears to have been a good week for the Ford government’s handling of the autism file. Minister of Children, Community and Social Services, Todd Smith has turned down the heat it seems but has raised expectations that every autism family will get the help and support they need and the government won’t have to spend more than $600 million to get that job done.

Kelly talk to Metrolinx's CEO about why this is happening.

Libby Znaimer speaks with Bruce Hawkins, Senior Communications Coordinator at the City of Toronto about why the Union Station revitalization is taking so long and how much it will cost. A new pathway for public transit commuters has become the latest development related to ongoing construction at Union Station. From today onwards, travelers going between Go Transit and the TTC station will be diverted through a glass-covered, underground corridor that runs below Front Street. The Union Station revitalization project began in 2011. It is expected to be completed by the year 2020, which is five years longer than its initial deadline.

Alex is joined by: KIM WRIGHT - Principal at Wright Strategies ELISSA FREEMAN - Public relations and pop culture expert Topics include:  No real explanation needed. Is this a path we should go down, and re-write the laws to allow this to happen? Or, does this cross a line?Euthanasia by organ donation: Should we allow doctors to retrieve people's organs while they're still alive? Health has been in the news a lot lately. This hospital is essentially hiding behind a bunch of red tape. Burlington women say dads are dying from shocking bedsores, blame Jo Brant Hospital 10 former Ontario health ministers have written letters to Premier Ford calling on the province to reverse cuts to health. And while this is being sold as a bi partisan stunt-- 6 were libs. Three NDP and one VERY red tory from the Davis years. The front-runner, also known as the only runner, so far, for for the leadership of Ontario's Liberal Party says he'd upload responsibility for the Gardiner Expressway and the Don Valley Parkway to the province and introduce half-price TTC and GO Transit fares at off-peak hours. This guy was the transportation min.. If this was such a no-brainer why wasn't it done when he was in gov? Old ideas. Old blood. Another day- Another apology for our PM Justin Trudeau who was in Saskatchewan today to formally apologize and exonerate Chief Poundmaker who was convicted and jailed in 1885. He and other First Nations leaders were accused of instigating violence in the Northwest Rebellion. This is the 6th formal and historical apology Trudeau has made. Is this not over kill?
