Looking at the members of the TRAN committee, there are no NDP members. Feel strange as NDP has had presence in committees for so long. But after they merged with the LIberal party last time around, it isn't surprising they were wiped out.

@justinling.ca For the same Reason Toronto won't give traffic signal priority to the Finch line or any of their downtown trams: affraid it will anger car drivers (voters) who feel it is designed to slow them down.

@jerome Cocos Plate pushes onto the Nporth American Plate near Mexico at speed of 68mm/year. In this case, from the beach ball, it was Mexico rising to release pressure of Cocos plate pushing (and being subduced under Mexico).

USGS said 5.7 […]
