I was there for a week 3 months ago and I stayed in New Jersey, took 25 minutes to get to the port authority in Manhattan and then the subway just went everywhere quickly and efficiently, I was stunned. You can pay with a card and after a certain number of uses it becomes free and the system was pretty easy to understand compared to some European cities.
I've heard horror stories, but New York (Manhattan to be precise) was fantastic up and down. People were nice too, we hit some rough looking areas and I was expecting some craziness but honestly Montreal gets rowdier and is generally angrier too.
Why are we still letting cars in our cities? Especially a city with such fantastic public transit, New York could set a new gold standard for walkable cities.
Exactly, it's akin to a dog pushing a button to get a treat, he'll push it more and more often if it works. Except in this case the button is what gets his fans engaged and the treat is money.
So you said it yesterday without any proof or knowledge? Why would you make such a statement when you come from a place of ignorance? Would you have come here and declared you've reversed your position and apologized to the people you zealously argued against from said place of ignorance or did you only do so when called out?
Prequels are hot garbage, they were only saved by the memes. A pessimist could argue that an incredibly successful viral marketing campaign saved them.
I never understand this, the last time I needed an MRI I got it done within the same day. Canadian healthcare can have its downsides but when you need something you get it quick.
And as a Canadian I have never met anyone who went to the US for healthcare and as a middle class person I grew up with people poorer and richer than myself.
Canadian healthcare - I got surgery within the space of a month for something totally non-life-threatening and didn't pay a cent other than my taxes, which cost less than American health insurance monthly. The amount of people I know who went to the US to get simple procedures done is exactly zero, and all this information is directly from - a Canadian.
Robertson is superior.
