🇨🇦 Toronto at the tipping point: Bringing a once-great city back from the brink

Thirty years of task forces, speeches, and urban visionaries—and Toronto has gone from New York run by the Swiss to a gridlocked, unaffordable mess where nothing works. Anne Golden chaired a Task Force in 1995 to save the GTA. Three decades later, she's back with another book diagnosing the same problems: crumbling transit, housing costs through the roof, homelessness, and infrastructure rot. The Eglinton Crosstown is now the poster child for public sector incompetence. What changed? Mass immigration without infrastructure. Globalist growth-at-all-costs policy. Governance by ideologues who prioritize virtue signals over basic services.

And now they blame Trump for exacerbating it all—convenient scapegoating when decades of Liberal and NDP mismanagement hollowed out the city. You can't import a million people, defund enforcement, bloat bureaucracy, and expect Swiss efficiency. Toronto isn't at a tipping point. It tipped years ago.
