Should the TTC be the OTC?

Mayor Rob Ford's office has been floating a controversial idea: Asking the province to take over the TTC. The provincial Liberals are saying publicly that the idea doesn't interest them. But it's an idea that has come up in the past - and just doesn't seem ready to die.
Joining Here and Now to explain what HE thinks of the idea was Howard Levine. he's a transportation planner and a former city councillor.
