That TTC vote you need to know about
Okay but real talk, fam, your city council just made a big move concerning the TTC. On April 16, the Toronto Transit Commission voted *unanimously* — seven "yes" votes to zero — on a motion to respond to Bill 98, the "Building Homes and Improving Transportation Infrastructure Act, 2026."
This wasn't just some small thing, dude. The motion, put forward by Chair Jamaal Myers and seconded by Dianne Saxe, means City Hall is officially pushing back, or at least strategically responding, to provincial legislation that could totally change how we build housing and, you guessed it, our transit.
* **Who voted yes?** Jamaal Myers, Dianne Saxe, Josh Matlow, Ausma Malik, and others. * **What was the vote?** Carried, 7-0. * **When was this?** April 16, 2026. * **What it means:** The city is making it clear they have thoughts on how the province wants to run things, especially when it impacts our commutes and where we can actually afford to live.
Real talk, this is Toronto — stay up. This isn't just about some bill; it's about control over our city's future, how we get around, and if we can actually build homes for real people and not just luxury condos. Keep an eye on the next steps here, because the province and city are definitely not on the same page.
