Can One Great Idea fix Toronto?

from This Matters · host Toronto Star

Guest: Ed Keenan, Toronto Star city columnist Toronto has always been a contradiction; a city people fall in love with and get fed up with, often at the same time. This year, the Toronto Star explored those many shades in our Toronto the Better series, digging into the cracks, complexities, and questions around how to actually make the city better. Now we want you to join the conversation. We're launching One Great Idea — a project asking for your bold, beautiful, or just plain weird ideas to help fix Toronto. If you could change one thing about this city, what would it be? And what kind of ideas could actually turn Toronto into the place you want it to be? In this episode, city columnist Ed Keenan talks about the project, the city's identity crisis, and why even the most frustrated Torontonians show up to cry and cheer together during a Blue Jays playoff run. Have a great idea of your own? Send it to [email protected] in under 200 words or drop it in the comments below. We'll be publishing a selection soon and letting readers choose which ones are worth championing. Audio sources: Youtube, CP24 This episode was produced by Sean Pattendon
