Mike Colle is proud that the McGuinty Government has announced Ontario’s $17.5 billion transit plan, which includes extending the Spadina & Yonge subways and light rail transit along Eglinton.

The McGuinty plan supports Toronto’s Transit City Vision.
MoveOntario 2020 will build 902 kilometres of new or improved rapid transit, starting in 2008.
It will create 175,000 jobs during construction and deliver 52 rapid transit projects. These include:
• Eglinton Ave Light Rail Transit from Mississauga to Scarborough
• The extension of the Yonge St. subway line to Highway 7
• Extension of the Spadina Subway to Vaughan
This project will remove 300 million car trips off our roads. And that's good news for the air we breathe — and the fight against climate change we're waging together.
The Province is calling on the federal government to cover at least a third of the cost. The Province will cover the rest of the capital costs and continue to share operating costs with municipalities through the existing provincial gas tax program.
Building a modern rapid transit system that moves people and goods quickly and efficiently will ensure we can attract and keep thousands of good high-paying jobs.
