Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Toronto's one and only bus depot is often chaotic; always depressing. Most days you'll find dozens of would-be passengers aimlessly pacing the dingy waiting-room. They seldom find a vacant seat. Outside in the boarding area; idling buses engulf waiting passengers in clouds of nauseating diesel fumes. This is the dismal picture of Toronto the newcomer is greeted with - if he arrives by bus.

Bay St. Wheel: Jack Mosevich biked to his job as president of Burns Fry Analytics every day in the last year but two: only an ice storm and a blizzard stopped him. Of course he doesn't always wear a business suit and carry a briefcase in city traffic.
