The Toronto Star maintains a series of forums on current issues such as:

Revamping Nathan Phillips Square

T.O. street furniture
What do you think of the three "street furniture" proposals to be considered by the City of Toronto? Responses

Clear Channel outdoor Canada's vision for a public washroom in downtown Toronto.

This article has links to each of the proposals, "Toronto street furniture designers roll out the bins to win."

However, the Toronto Star's Forums would be more useful if they contained links to the original articles and other documents.
