@TTCnotices Minor delays?? No service at Keele station eastbound for 20 minutes and NO announcements

There is no bottom to how bad things can get in Canadian media. I urge you to support independent, non-profit journalism in any way you can.

Powerful @globeandmail letter from @OntScienceCtr architect Raymond Moriyama! OSC was conceived by PC Premier John Robarts. Requesting "an institute of international stature," he directed that it be outside of downtown Toronto & that it last beyond 250 years! #onpoli #topoli

Everything good about Toronto, RIP. Piece by piece. @fordnation is our Grim Reaper.

NEW: Therme, the company behind a controversial waterpark and spa that’s set to take over a major portion of Ontario Place has signed a 95-year lease with the province of Ontario, Global News has learned.

He put SmartTrack - remember that imaginary transit line?- on his lawn signs.

John Tory’s legacy will be one of cruelty towards his citizens, crumbling infrastructure, wasting money on a highway during a climate crisis, and transit promises that never came true. #AusterityTO

Imagine the nerve of asking for federal $ for healthcare after forgiving 1 billion dollars to 407, cancel license plate fees, lost 4.4 billion Covid funds, cut 1.5 billion in healthcare, gave over 400 million to parents for "tutors" and you can still afford a HWY for 10 billion.

@BradMBradford @BeachMetro @BeachMetroNews If we have so much in common, why can’t @JohnTory work to form majority consensus on issues like a normal functioning democracy?

The Ford Government should be under police investigation. It is not possible to believe that these land speculators paid tens of millions for land that could not be developed without knowing the greenbelt protections would be removed. Criminal.

🙌 THE 4 DAY WORK WEEK HAS HIT IRELAND WITH ASTONISHING RESULTS. 🙌

The Irish Findings are as follows:
• 100% of the companies involved are continuing with the 4-Day work week ➡
• 85% of companies which reported data on revenue reported growth in revenue 📈 (1/X)

In case they need reminding, I’ve compiled a list of all the times Doug Ford and his housing minister Steve Clark said they wouldn’t touch the #Greenbelt (caution: long 🧵 ahead):

The #OntarioPlace proposal is the most unimaginative, uncreative, bland idea. I can’t believe after 10 years this is what we’re offered. It has no cultural significance, turns it’s back to the lake, and will not be open for everyone. #ONpoli #TOpoli

Canada is a better place with Jaskirat and Tanvir here. I have contributed $100 to their battle.

Many of you are in a position to donate, too. I hope you will.

Here is the link for donations: https://t.co/1EnLMKSC5Y

@kempthead @SeanFraserMP Please don't deport Jaskirat Singh Sidhu; it only compounds the Humboldt tragedy. While fault also lies with the trucking company & highway managers, Sidhu's taken responsibility for the accident w/o appealing the harsh sentence. Let him rebuild his life in Canada.

1. Privatization of public healthcare
2. Sending public education dollars to private hands
3. Erosion of local democracy giving more power to land speculators
4. Destruction of sensitive lands during rapid climate change (province has no climate plan)

Ontario is in a bad place.

Toronto vibe check: off-the-scale readings on the fed-up-with-it meter. Stuff is falling apart, or locked up, or not there. Can’t we do better? https://t.co/jlB1d3CPc8

[Ben Bergen @Ben_Bergen]

Someone has done a guerrilla art installation for #NuitBlanche in #Toronto - It criticizes @JohnTory & the austerity of our city.

It could be more brilliant or more perfectly timed for the city’s municipal election.

Well done 👏👏
