Not sure why the change in styles but here is a link to what the new ones will look like

The already have two that I know of in service at Donald and Graham replacing the black decorative ones that were put in when the Bus Mall started. |
I've travelled Western Canada and Ontario for years. These kind of 90 degree angle traffic light configurations have been replacing the curved ones for years. I actually like Winnipeg's style (which used to be the norm in Vancouver as well) as it was unique to us for the last few decades. I guess that is all going to gradually change now. Too bad.
