A Street View to a Thrill

Google Street View for Toronto will launch "in the coming weeks," according to the Post, who note some of the sightings of the car around the city and who interviewed Jon Lasiuk—the photographer in Torontoist's Flickr Pool whose photo of one of the alleged cars we featured this past weekend. The Star, meanwhile, chronicles all the groups in the city who are planning to "make a visual statement if one of the conspicuous sedans comes driving down the road," such as the Toronto Cyclists Union. The cars themselves? Still (somewhat hilariously and a little unnervingly) elusive. According to the Star, staff reporter (and Fixer) Jack Lakey "spotted one yesterday, but the driver told him he wasn't supposed to talk to media and hurriedly drove off."
