The unopened shading makes sounds like it's under construction/nearly finished. Would "proposed" or "not yet built" be better? Is there a style guide for these things? Turini2 (talk) 12:14, 2 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

Maybe just changing "unopened" to "unbuilt" would work? - Floydian τ ¢ 14:12, 2 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

Long Star article

Could be unusable due to POV, but: "What the Ford government hasn’t told you about its next controversial highway project" Mapsax (talk) 00:10, 2 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Pretty much anything from the Star or Sun are diametric POV that has no place amongst facts. I can't even read the article, but if they want me to pay for it I know it's not worth reading. - Floydian τ ¢ 00:29, 2 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Floydian Several issues with that - a paywall doesn't make a source bad as per WP:PAYWALL. Many newspaper of records have them (Globe and Mail, New York Times etc!) The article is a journalistic piece, not an editorial - read it and then make a judgement on it. Obviously an editorial would fail POV, but that's a separate issue. I'll add a few relevant bits from it shortly. Turini2 (talk) 12:49, 2 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
Added relevant bits - not a huge amount for a huge long article, some useful FOI bits. All relevant bits quoted so you can read it - impressive that they got the MTO on the record about tolling, something no other news outlet has managed! Turini2 (talk) 13:48, 2 November 2021 (UTC) Also, UK person grumble - very annoying that Canada doesn't something similar to WhatDoTheyKnow so we could read the FOI responses for ourselves!
