Bob and Doug Ford do the Waterfront


After decades of excruciating negotiations planning and getting three levels of government to commit to a plan the vision of a world class waterfront for Toronto has been advancing and all the ducks are a row to finish the project over another 20 years. Doug after watching the Simpsons scribbles on his napkin and comes up with a better plan, a shopping mall with a Monorail and Hotel on the waterfront. I support this urban planning wunderkind, who needs all that education planning and consulting, go Dougie.

Top ten reasons to build shopping mall on the lake
1)No waterfront city in the world including Hong Kong has done it.
2)When the international car thief’s steal your car its way more green to load it directly from the parking lot.
3)All the runoff from rain can do directly into the lake, do you have any idea how much it costs to process all the runoff from other shopping malls.
4)It will be a world class destination for RV drivers. No other city in the world has this kind of infrastructure for them to utilize. Direct access to water, and a place for those who are libertarians to dump organic waste.
5) The wind from the lake will blow away any trash, operating cost for this mall will be world class.
6)The Don Valley Parkway and Gardner expressway are infrastructure treasures, a mall will fully utilize this resource.
7)People shopping don’t care about the noise from the airport, killing two birds with one stone.
8)It will have a monorail, and monorail was the best Simpsons ever.
9)The West Edmonton mall is only on a river.
10)Ford nation will be able to view the waterfront from a drive through.
