Last night I flew from Calgary to Toronto, arriving slightly late at 11:20pm.
At 11:25pm I boarded the express bus from the airport to the subway.
Halfway to the subway the driver announced they were going on strike.
In fifteen minutes.
He told us we would make the last subway going east.
We didn't.
Hundreds of people stranded on the edge of western Toronto. Not many cabs.
*That* could have been an interesting night.
A few friends decided that I better be rescued, so they zoomed out and did so. Yay for rescues! I would have been OK to walk, but man I would have been tired.
For your reference: the potential route.
Today we have no transit. Toronto is eerily quiet.
