Ford asks province for more than $150M - thestar.com →
thestar.com
Mayor Rob Ford, who campaigned on the city having a spending — not a revenue — problem, is asking the Ontario government for an injection of more than $150 million in the provincial budget expected in late March, the Star has learned. In a four-page letter dated Jan. 25 sent by Ford to Ontario Finance Minister Dwight Duncan, and obtained by the Star, the mayor asks for money for road construction and repair, public transit projects, a Fort York visitor centre and the renewal of programs to fund subsidized child care, housing and services for immigrants.

And, while Ford often blasted predecessor David Miller for building demands for provincial transit operating funding into city budgets, and has said Toronto needs to get its fiscal house in order before asking the province for money, the mayor makes a case that sounds very familiar.
Then, when the province refuses to give him (enough) funding to balance his horrible bookkeeping, he’ll blame McGuinty (who is already doing poorly in the polls) for all the program cuts.
Dear Dylan,
Thank you for dealing with all my shitty moods today. I know I can be hard to deal with when I’m all down and negative, but I appreciate the way you stick with me through it all.
Thank you for being so wonderful.

You two (you and Dylan) need to stop posting such amazing pictures.
Ahaha, thank you! ;D I just post what I take, and apparently I take a lot of photos. The same goes for Dylan I assume. We both never leave our houses without our cameras, so it seems. I’m glad you enjoy them. :)
I’ve had my scanner for a little over a year, and I’m only just now starting to master the act of scanning my negatives. It’s so finicky.
I’m experiencing a rare moment of self confidence and admiration toward my own photographs. It won’t last, but I’ll enjoy it while it does.

lololololol so I’m a sight?
Oh, the best there is.
Alone (lonely) in my room again.
I had a nice day with Dylan, though it was cut short thanks to his dad’s birthday. He brought me cupcakes and we walked through high park. We managed to walk across Grenadier Pond (frozen of course), which was actually really fun. Before all that we ate like horses at Sneaky Dee’s.
School is in two days…
I haven’t started a project that’s due monday, I have two essays due soon, and I’ve lost every bit of motivation to do any type of school work.

uhm I'm sorry, did this toronto website, toronto.com just refer to eglinton, davisville, rosedale and summerhill as Midtown?
I thought they never referred to Toronto in terms of midtown and uptown? ;D
Fine you win, but only partially. You said Bloor-Yorkville was midtown, and I said that it’s still downtown, which holds true. We’re both right. ;)
