TO JDN of Toronto

Post by gruch_s »

Thanks for your Adobe tip.

This if off topic, but tell me about Toronto. Here's my email address gruch_s@hotmail.com

I visited Toronto 20 years ago and loved the warmth of the people. Is it still like that?

Heh. I think I'm probably the wrong person to ask about Toronto.

But in order to give you some good info, I'd need to know where you are located. Sounds silly. But - in my opinion - people from Europe would be interested in different issues than people from the US.

Twenty years ago, Toronto was growing. So money was flowing into the city to build cultural centers like museums, opera houses, art galleries, theaters, ballet houses, amphitheaters. So there was a lot of great experiences for visitors.

Now, the core of the city is no longer growing and most growth is happening in the sububrbs - Mississauga, Scarborough, Vaughan and York Region. As a result the greater city proper has been decaying for quite some time. I don't mean the city has gone rotten. But you can definitely notice a degradation in the quality of our roads, transit system, air quality, quality of restaurants. It may not be a big change for a visitor. It's likely a lot more noticeable for residents that are close to the city center.

The above opinions are just my own and you should know that many people who live here would vigorously disagee with me.

Thanks for the info on Toronto. I am in Eastern Connecticut, USA near the Rhode Island border. Camelot never lasts forever - I guess that's why we need to make hay while the sun shines. Still, a weeks vacation in Toronto might be great. -Steve

Hey guys, how about exchanging such info through PMs? That would help other folk who are trying to get help on x2 PRO at this forum!

Thanks for the consideration.
