The wait for this bus today took about an hour. The only reason I took the Yonge bus and not the subway is because I was travelling with a stroller and both North York Centre and Eglinton stations are inaccessible. The delay - and the inaccessibility - is completely unacceptable considering these are such important and central locations. Our round-trip travel time was over 3 hours for a 1/2 hour swimming lesson - no wonder I arrived home exhausted with two children in tears. Next time, I will have no choice but to drive - for $2.50 in parking, it's cheaper than the TTC, too (two adult fares, two child fares). How awful that it's impossible to travel around town in an environmentally-friendly and family-friendly way.

Please be assured that your comments will be directed to the appropriate area in the TTC for staff review and any action deemed necessary. Your input is greatly appreciated.

What do we tell our kids about Chabad and “Yechi”?

If I start by saying I really like Chabad, and adore the late Lubavitcher Rebbe, z"l, well... maybe you already know where I'm headed. Naomi Rivka has been asking lately what I think about Chabad. She asks, in part, because she already knows how I feel. She already knows I’m bothered, though to her, it’s mostly about “liking” and “not liking.” I wish things were that simple. Our little neighbourhood in Israel has a significant Chabad presence, and Chabad conducts fairly significant outreach within the community. Which sounds nice until you realize that this is a religious neighbourhood, closed on Shabbos, where some huge percentage of people are shomer mitzvos. Sure, it’s mostly religious Zionist, and there are a range of observances, for sure, but we’re pretty much all religious here in some way or another. So at that point, this isn’t outreach but inreach . Convincing people who are religious to be… what? A lot of Chabad’s efforts here are focused o...
