      @seeker of truth Oh before I forgot, what is the name of this monster i should observe in open court?

    1. Ridership is low because service has been generally awful for years.

      One of my favourite things is living near a major route that supposedly has a bus service which is ’10 minutes or better’ and routinely waiting 20 minutes or more for this ’10 minutes or better’ bus.

  1. Planning a trip downtown tomorrow with my kids on the subway….or I was…🤷🏼‍♀️ Perhaps I’m being a bit overprotective but considering the circumstances…..I hope the poor woman makes a quick and full recovery ❤️‍🩹🥹

  2. Anyone want to take bets on it being more of Trudeau s imports he did say he would be responsible for them

  3. No names or pictures released of the victim or the attacker. Why? What is being hidden? Can we make some guesses? And what is being done about it?

  4. This is unacceptable, this is so horrific and disgusting I don’t even know how to process it.

  5. What a disgusting act. I pray she recovers. Unfortunately Canada doesn’t have a penalty severe enough to give the attacker the punishment he deserves… speaking of the attacker, there was no description. Wonder why that is?

    1. I am thinking that any person who does this horrible crime is in a very bad Mental State or on horrible drugs! I think Security needs to be beefed up in many places now

  6. This is the most disgusting and disturbing news I have read in a long, long time . No words.

  7. I really hope this young lady recovers well. I hope this evil coward rots in jail.

  8. Why is there so much emphasis on the TTC in this report? The TTC is irrelevant. The issue is what those in the news never get into, the chronic violence and misogny of so many males. When will any of you have something, anything substantial to say about that?
