To Cherry Street to see "The Breeze", the new Toronto-Rochester ferry arrive from Rochester for the first time. David Miller, Toronto's "large imperfect" Mayor was there trying to shrug off the risible lack of preparation at the Toronto port. A half constructed portakabin with flapping plastic sheeting greeted our American guests. His popularity ratings can only be based on public ignorance - a third-world country would have done better.
By the way they have installed a roundabout at the bottom of Cherry Street - unknown in North America - about half the cars turn right (correct) and about half the cars turn left (incorrect) - this can't go on much longer before we have a few bent SUVs.
