The term "World class city" is meaningless to people who aren't politicians or consultants pitching to the International Olympic Committee.

NYC and Chicago are dream cities for many, some Torontonians included. Does that mean that their transit stations aren't teeming with capybara-size rats? That they don't have problems with homelessness and poverty?

And I say this as someone who lives in the 'burbs and is upset that the LRT delays have continued as long as they have.
