London subway vs Toronto subway (cost, convenience, ...)

London has "Oyster card system" of payment since 2003, vs Presto card (forced by Metrolinux, a Liberal Agency) Fiasco...

Originally budgeted for $250 million, our fare card, Presto, turned into yet another boondoggle and was the subject of a scathing report last December by auditor general Jim McCarter, who said it had cost $700 million up to that point.

He said when all the costs are factored in, Presto could be among the highest-cost fare cards in the world.

How about Presto card vs "Octopus Card" used in Hong Kong since 1998?

Why not buy the systems from Octopus, or Oyster card System, that saves time and money. Well, Metrolinx is Liberal Agency hence as usual (like Adscam...).

Enough is enough.
