The Toronto Star mentioned that this would be happening in an article
about 2-3 weeks ago. The TTC was looking at doing a planner themselves,
but went with Google because it would save 2 million dollars. Vancouver
has a great trip planner already, and I wish Toronto had their act
together earlier on this.

It's actually from March, believe it or not.

Have your Toronto Transit people, contact our Boston, Massachusetts
Transit people.
Boston has a trip planner programme on their page, urge the TTC to look
it over maybe it'll give the TTC folks some ideas on where to go next
for a feasable trip planner.
