 | | The fiscal pressures on Toronto, for example, to support a huge rapid transit system, sustain enough affordable housing, accommodate thousands of new immigrants and support an education system that works for these immigrants, are huge. |
 | | And to somehow suggest that Toronto — a city of 2.5 million, with 5,239 kilometres of roads, 500 bridges, eight water treatment plants, 60,500 units of public housing, and 5,800 kilometres of water pipes — can be treated the same as North Battleford strains credulity. |
