The State of the TTC

In the next few posts, I'll be writing about the performance of the TTC. I'm going to attempt to be as factual and data-based as possible.

Before we get started, I'll note that there are no perfect statistics on anything in our quantum-mechanics based universe. Nevertheless, some statistics are good enough - and are in line with other datasets - to be the basis for drawing inferences. (I was recently posting on another website - whose owner has decided not to publish some of my calculations. I endeavour not to treat anyone in the same fashion. This individual continually downplayed statistics he didn't like.)

I'll be looking at the following:

1. Ridership,
2. Costs,
3. Service quality,
4. Employee morale,
5. Leadership,
6. and lastly Governance
