Councilman's Assistant, Transportation Services & Our MP Not Much Help Last Year!

Here's a note from Michael, a local Oxton-Oriole neighborhood resident, who writes...

I spoke to Chris Sellors, Councillor Michael Walker's assistant. Nice guy but not useful on this issue. He sent me to Steve Benjamin at City Hall.

Nice guy but not useful on this issue. He told me that what I wanted came under the Highway Traffic Act of Ontario.

I called Michael Bryant's office (he's our MPP) and spoke to his then-assistant, Jeanette. She said send her the info...

...I was looking for less than you. Just a sign that would say Pedestrians Have Right of Way.

[I was told] there aren't too may pedestrians so why hold up traffic with a stop sign?

Actually, half the people stop at the corner even though they don't have to. But a pedestrian still can't cross in front of them because he doesn't have the right of way and one never knows when they will charge forward.

I was told to use the stop lights at Kilbarry and the cross walk at Highbourne. This is ridiculous because they are not on the natural route to Yonge Street from here.
