The Toronto Transit Commission is rejecting any responsibility for a recent incident in which a woman was pushed into the subway tracks and is calling for her $1 million lawsuit to be dismissed. The subway train did not make contact with the plaintiff, the TTC says. Their defence simply tries to avoid the real issue of what safety mechanisms TTC should have had in place,” he said. Singer notes that the TTC previously considered adding safety barriers to the platforms, but ultimately decided not to due to high costs. “The TTC submits that this action be dismissed with costs,” the defence statement adds.
