Buses vs. Busybodies (a.k.a. Today's Idiot)

The (Toronto) Star does tend to lean a little more to the Left than I'd prefer, but sometimes their leanings are worthwhile reads. For example, their "Fixer" series is an excellent piece that holds municipal and regional entitles accountable for things that are broken or missing (e.g. missing street signs, potholes, other repairs of a Public Works nature.)

Today's little tidbit is a llittle closer to home, metaphorically and actually. In an age where we should be actively embracing public transit, this shockingly myopic and misguided individual deems it an intrusion on her fluffy, suburban lifestyle.

Kudos to the folks at DRT who are (wisely) dismissing her concerns and supporting their passengers.

"Route change request sparks bus war"

(Edit: I wonder if the next dictionary that includes the term "Asshat" will use this 'person' as an example?)
