Fmr. Data/Org Chair in Davenport. Liberalist guy, Math guy, I read a lot of books about Canada || Not the former premier of Ontario.

“The buses are half empty!” screamed the lone occupant of an 8-passenger Honda Pilot rolling down the transit lane.

@BikeShame You had me until the “excuse for a human” bit.

@PierrePoilievre When you import the American Anger Politics rhetoric you’re supposed to update it a bit for your area. Gated communities? Tough on crime culture wars? Sounds more of a US thing.

@EricGrenierTW Public Polls make elections more like horse betting than democracy-in-action

Policy, platforms, candidates should be centre state, not just who pollsters (some with agendas of their own) give odds of winning

Dear Julie Vignola,
If you think the Governor General is expensive, just wait until you find out how much elected presidents cost.

The budget of @JohnTory leads directly to this. Cuts have impacts.

Anyone running for mayor needs to be held to account for supporting this past budget and to explain how they will fix this

@franco_nomics Evergreen tweet:

The Canadian Taxpayers Federation is an astroturf org. that does not represent the interests of Canadians.

With voting membership of 3-20 ppl, they are as far from a grassroots or citizens advocacy group as possible and are simply anti-tax sensationalists.

@paulisci Is @Rogers going to keep topping up the mayor’s salary with a $100K a year stipend / board seat or was that just for @JohnTory?

@leonardoh4h @cityoftoronto @TorontoCouncil @TOparksrec This is the first year that Spring has followed Winter, the largest richest city in the country is still figuring out how to open public washrooms, please have patience

@PierrePoilievre Bring back the Progressive Conservatives

This anti-tax rage farming is disappointing and poorly serves the country

Taxes pay for services. What would you cut? Do you have policy or just bumper sticker slogans?

@TashaKheiriddin If he doesn’t want to be there anymore he could always just resign. Someone else would love to me an MP and in his spot, CPC or not.

[Dale Smith @journo_dale]

Bev Oda didn’t resign over orange juice. She changed hotels to a more expensive one so that she could smoke in her room, and she had a demonstrated pattern of expensing limousines. It was never about the orange juice.

I know that the mats from the rink were probably heavy

But having the workers park on the walking path, so that the truck then parks on the grass, while the backhoe pulverizes the grass as it loads the mats

I dunno. Is a lighter touch not possible?

@hehhehhyohyo @TheBikingLawyer It can’t be forgotten that that’s a part of it.

If the timelines for delivery aren’t reasonable enough for drivers to operate their vehicles legally and without endangering lives, the company itself shares blame. Profit over people. @PurolatorInc

@jasrajshallan This hyper-partisanship might get you some angry support, but at the expense of faith in our institutions

Small-c conservatives deserve better, Canada deserves better

[Bill Davis @BillDavis__]

@CBCNews This is dangerous rhetoric, stop acting as a stenographer for this.

As others have said, the CPC 2021 National Campaign Manager disagrees with this.

Interference needs investigating. Suggesting the election is illegitimate is incredibly harmful.

@SteveRickettsSP @meghanandy You don’t have to fully align with a party and make voting for them your identity

Voting is like taking the bus, none get you exactly where you’re going, take the one that gets you closest

[Bill Davis @BillDavis__]

@LaurenPelley It was my own fault for seeing the picture and thinking this would be a cute story about stinky-cats. Dang.

[Bill Davis @BillDavis__]

@Paulysworld He should not but he could be

Best way to prevent that is to get involved politically, even outside of elections
