@Beth_Levy66 Playfair is a disaster, beyond shovelling into the street (I don’t get my neighbourhood) people have shovelled their driveways into the sidewalks…I don’t get it. Kids walking on the road to school.
It is ridiculous that Toronto still can’t figure out transit for the marathon…let’s run extra busses down Yonge St but subway??? Yah, you’re outta luck. 30k runners plus volunteers, plus people just coming to cheer/support. #ttc#WaterfrontMarathon
Canada Post is a national service, not a private business. We should discuss it as such. But that would mean recognizing that ending door delivery unequally impacts seniors, people with disabilities, and those in rural communities.
@TheresaLubowitz If we want change than we have to talk about it. Some of these names are like mythical creatures who lurk in dark corners. Real renewal means new voices, new perspectives and new campaign tactics. Plus…yes…kindness…we need to focus on that more.
The Ontario liberal party at the best of times is a vessel of (for the most part) progressive policy.
At the worst of times, the sense of entitlement among its party insiders rears its head, with little regard for putting party or policy above self-interest.
@NokhaDakroub I think there was a general assumption that she would pass it because of the ex-officio vote, I thought she would have been sitting around the 70% mark. This result is damming, Libs cannot win an election or rebuild with her as leader.
His goal is to put the public education system on life support to funnel students and their parents' incomes towards PC donors in private education. This playbook is 30 years old.
All of this. Are we just numb to this government now? Do we think they’re just going to do it anyway no matter what we say? Trustees are the oldest elected institution in the province…we’re just going to sit back and let this government eliminate them? #onpoli
No trustees means no watchdogs.
Who will challenge privatization? Who will speak truth when government pushes classroom plans with no evidence?

"According to board staff, 71 out of 72 school boards across Ontario are running deficits in special education this year"
It's those darn spendthrift trustees, I tell ya!
I had the opportunity to share my thoughts on the provincial takeover of the TDSB and other things today, including the New Leaf Liberals. Thanks for having me Jake, this was fun!
NEW PODCAST: Former TDSB Vice-Chair Jennifer Arp joins the program to discuss why she’s joined up with the New Leaf Liberals, and her concerns about the Ford government takeover of the TDSB. Tune in! https://t.co/0WsjqCXc06
@TheresaLubowitz I had a physio appointment on St Clair this afternoon and drove because it’s faster, I have a privilege of having a car and because parking on the side streets is free. I live 2 mins from Dufferin. This whole thing is disappointing.
