South of Steeles: What did we miss?
http://southofsteeles.blogspot.com/2007/09/what-did-we-miss.html
Where Toronto's Troubles Begin. Thursday, September 27, 2007. What did we miss? A 100 million dollars. How much has been siphoned off of Toronto's non residential tax base in terms of assessment values and new development? And what has this cost the city in missed revenue? What if instead of losing 100 thousand jobs during 1989 to 2004, if Toronto could have kept pace with the surrounding regions what would that meant? What a wasted opportunity!

South of Steeles: Toronto cannot afford to grow
http://southofsteeles.blogspot.com/2008/01/toronto-cannot-afford-to-grow.html
Where Toronto's Troubles Begin. Tuesday, January 22, 2008. Toronto cannot afford to grow. So thankfully it is not? This means that between 2001 and 2006 when Toronto's population grew by 22,529 it needed an additional $33,457,773 per year by 2006 to cover the additional expenses of new residents. The only saving grace here is that the city has missed its growth targets. If they city had grown by the projected amount of 131,966 it would be $195,982,448 worse off than it already is.
