^WTF? Christmas isn't for like another 1.5 months, and the snow we've had will be gone by then.

Chrismas Parades in the Greater Ottawa Area usually start about a week after Halloween.

Our parade is indoors, in the pedway system, and is usually very boring.


--------------------

If you want to operate a proper trolley system, you will find a way to do it and make it stick. If you don't want to operate a trolley system, you will do as ETS did.

Awesome! Those going to Toronto's Santa Claus Parade, please take TTC or GO (or both) to make it there in time. When I went to my first SCP, I took the BD Line to St. George Station from Kennedy.

Here's a map of it on this link: http://www.thesantaclausparade.ca/TTCMAP.html

There usually is....I've even worked on a couple......LOLOL

for a lot of years 7901 was the Christmas bus, then it was 9201, now there has not been a Christmas bus since 9201 was retired....

If you dont like what I say, there's always the back button on your browser.... or this board software also has a ignore feature, use it...
I do my research, I go to the commission meetings, I keep myself INVOLVED in transit.... Not to please you, not to humor you, but because I CARE about TRANSIT and the issues surrounding it...

I'm done arguing with people on here..
I've been a Transit Advocate for 15 years, I know my stuff.
I've been a Transit fan for 18 years.

I dunno, something about standing out in the cold to watch a few floats go by doesn't appeal to me. Sitting at home and watching it with a hot cup-o-joe does! smile.gif

You of all people should be going to donate to charities...

Cambridge parade is November 17th, which is when GRT unveils its christmas bus as well.
