The Toronto Transit Commission has been running streetcars on downtown Toronto streets for more than 80 years. Yet streetcars have been present in T.O. since 1861; long before the TTC became the responsible body in charge of public transit in Ontario's capital. Their rails and overhead wires are a familiar sight to Torontonians.

 
"...Always the wind and the persistent snow
Gets into your eyes and your mouth and every fold of your coat" (Chekhov)"

Anton Chekhov was a Russian short story writer and dramatist who is considered among the great literary minds of all time. He began his professional life as a physician before making the most of his creative talents. I'd tell you which work the quote is borrowed from; but I honestly don't know. How bout that? Let me know if you do.

Some of Chekhov's better known works include "The Seagull," "Uncle Vanya," "The Three Sisters" and "The Cherry Orchard."
