I was actually going to the airport yesterday, and was wondering why the otherwise 30 minute drive took over an hour, with the lineups already reaching the hwy exit. I was explaining to my relative, that see, Montreal has such little foresight, they couldn't build a train to reach the airport in fifty years, unlike Toronto and their Union-Pearson express, which makes YYZ a superior departure point.

Little did I know that this was a sit-in by activists. And the First Nation & Eco activists do this stuff in Toronto all the time. As in block the UP / CN lines, so it's not like that would be exempt from delays either.

All the power to them mind you. I'm just trying to highlight my smugness and bias towards Toronto transit interconnectedness.

Nearly every other developed country on the planet has rail connecting their major airports. It just makes sense. Of course i didn't bring my personal car with me on the flight. The train is often cheaper than a taxi too.

Locking this post since some troll isn't getting the message.

I wish they could figure out a better strategy than making people hate them.

Doesn't anything less mean they get ignored?

Comfortable protest isn't protest.
