Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: The original pushover: That's The Star's Dale Brazao who road-tested the honesty of Metro's cabbies. He reports he didn't get stung for a roundabout ride by any of the seven cabbies he hailed - though one overcharged him $2. To make it tempting, he posed as an immigrant.
