@Smacruger @BlueJays @MLB You clearly aren't a fan if you don't know who Madison is.

@ShiDavidi Giants fans very classy.

Please read and retweet the tweet below. It says it all.

Think of it this way: anything can be destructive at the wrong scale.

If you replace your residential street with a four-lane highway, you destroy your neighbourhood.

If you put a wrong-sized airport on a waterfront, you destroy it as a place for gathering, respite, and connection.

Ford’s expansion plan must be stopped. It’s another assault on the livability of our city, driven by someone settling old scores, who doesn’t care about the city as a thriving urban place.

We’re building a dense, urban, walkable city, and this airport expansion isn’t necessary. And it conflicts with that goal.

��This tiny speck of ecological paradise provides critical respite from our dense and urban concrete jungle and is vital for mental health, community, and happiness.”

OK! We now have the new wage standard - all of us need to bargain 11% increases this year! We don't say this often, but thanks @fordnation for setting the bar high!

Don Davies: "There is a little something I'd like to clear up arising from my speech at the Press Gallery dinner. I erroneously said 'when Prime Minister Carney played hockey that he was a goalie.' I was mistaken, he's clearly a right-winger."

@Tyeezeee @COPEVancouver @VancouverPD Have any of the annual police budget increases helped stem the issue? Answer is a big fat no. Services like mental health support, community centres do.

@RaulCastro2001 @Canucks @BlueJays The Vancouver Canadians are the Jays High A team. The link is pretty clear.

WTF?! This is #Kelowna Canada, where I grew up in the Okanagan Valley. Over 160,000 people evacuated with a state of emergency called today. The fire jumped the lake from West Kelowna to North Kelowna. I hope everyone makes it out of there. #kelownafires

@Bibo79868230 @blogTO Except Bass is objectively bad at his job?

Proud to continue supporting @andrewmorley0 in this critical role.

here is a montage about a decade of doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results

@CanadianRay16 @VANDUpeople @VancouverPD Are you so naive that you don't realise they'll be back in a matter of days, if not hours? This isn't a "solution"

[Anne-Marie Connor @AnneMarieConnor]

@dorianbanks @dougcraig3 I'm "not from Vancouver." Are you implying we need an income test to gain access to the city?

[Anne-Marie Connor @AnneMarieConnor]

@ianhanomansing My Dad, a long-time pediatrician in Ontario always used 'emerg'. I do too and no one has ever looked at me strangely...
