There are numerous articles that show his anti-subway bias. The recent one I remember is when Metrolinx initially decided that LRT was wrong for Eglinton and pushed for a full subway line, Miller literally lost his marbles and began going on about how building subways is not the answer. After speaking to a few councillors on the Eglinton corridor, they said the same thing. Go ask the normal people living on Eglinton what they think about the LRT, and they'll tell you - gauging your opinion based on a few LRTistas from this forum is laughable.
If he's pro subway, then tell me this: the DRL being the most important subway expansion for Toronto and one that would benefit everyone, has had its study funding pulled. I believe last year, the $2 million for the study was removed for 'budget cuts'. I'm sure you could remove a stop or two from his beloved TC to cover that, but no, subways are evil in Miller world. Also, if it was that important, then he'd include it in TC, but no, originally he said, and very clearly: "NO DRL UNTIL TC IS FINISHED". After cancelling the study, I can just imagine when we might be getting this fabled subway line - instead we're going to get suburban streetcar lines that nobody uses.
