The Money being spent on the Building programs are a one time expenditure where as salaries come from the operating budget which is on going. The levels of government that gave money for the building and equipment is one time thing not an annual contribution to the TTC budget.
If they don't want to work.. then let them be replaced. Private sector has that cut throat mentality and while I myself may not like it is the way of the world. So they should grow up or some one will downsize and out source their asses to INDIA or closer to home, St. Catharines where the unemployment rate is well above the national average.
Tell me where does one get a 40k + job by sitting in a booth taking change and giving tickets. And what make them so special that their employers pay their health tax when the rest of us have to pay it ourselves. The rate of inflation for the past few years has been less than 2 percent. So they are ahead of the game where others have not had raises for a few years.
