@jonliedtke His status with the Law Society of Ontario is suspended administratively. Explains why he was on leave from his job with the city. Can't do your job as a lawyer when you're not legally able to practice.

@BradleyWhitford DONNA!!! - words you can hear while reading them

@RVenezaCTV Indeed they did. But it's not as simple as that. Was the landlord living in the upper unit when the converted basement was first occupied? Was the basement finished or unfinished prior to conversion? Did you ask?

@ChadLindberg Kevin Spacey is an incredible talent, and a horrible human being who doesn't deserve to work in the industry ever again.

@brettgelman I'm so sorry this is happening to you. To everyone. I don't understand how we've found ourselves back here. How so many people have found it so easy to slide into such deep hatred for fellow humans based on race or skin or any other difference.

@jonliedtke Having such wonderful memories of tobogganing down huge hills as a kid in Scarborough, I was so excited to take my kid. The first time I did, I wondered how the heck we survived it. Definitely a different experience as an adult, lol. Wear a helmet and push off!

@jonliedtke Good news for the community, and smart move by the union. Shore up some public support in case a strike becomes necessary.

@PaulReiser I thought I was going to be fine, and then about half way through, the tears just burst out of me. What a beautiful video.

"Friends" stars Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc and David Schwimmer paid tribute to Matthew Perry:

"We are all so utterly devastated by the loss of Matthew. We were more than just cast mates. We are a family. There is so much to say, but right now we’re going to take a moment to grieve and process this unfathomable loss. In time we will say more, as and when we are able. For now, our thoughts and our love are with Matty’s family, his friends, and everyone who loved him around the world." https://t.co/zphp7aABq9

@WindsorPoli @detroitnews He's said before that he wants to repair the company's relationship with Windsor and Detroit. Looks like they're trying to do what the Gordie Howe has done, and build goodwill by committing to neighbourhood improvements in Detroit. I hope they do the same in Windsor.

This. THIS.

"Not Matthew Perry"

[Variety @Variety]

"'Friends' wouldn’t have been 'Friends' without Matthew Perry.

And neither would have been, as time went by, American culture. The actor, who infused the hit show with its vital, sustaining dose of sarcasm, went on in recent years to publicize his sobriety, and his work bringing others out of addiction through the founding of a sober living house. His death, at 54 in an apparent drowning, comes as a shock, in part because Perry seemed to have a second act lying ahead of him."

@FabioCostante Do you not want people from surrounding areas to come to Windsor to work or shop? Are the people of Lasalle no longer welcome at Rock Bottom or Dominion House? Lasalle residents might use this Windsor intersection more, but Windsor is who benefits.

BREAKING: In a devastating speech, iconic actor Robert De Niro rips Donald Trump to shreds, declaring that Trump is “not a bad man,” but “an evil one” who is a “wanna be tough guy” and has “no morals or ethics.”

But Robert De Niro didn’t stop there…

De Niro continued:

“Trump has no sense of right or wrong. No regard for anyone but himself — not the people he was supposed to lead and protect, not the people he does business with, not the people who follow him, blindly and loyally, not even the people who consider themselves his “friends.” He has contempt for all of them.

The repercussions of his turbulent presidency divided America and rattled New York City beyond imagination.  Remember how we were jolted by crisis in early 2020, as a virus swept the world.

We lived with Donald Trump’s bombastic behavior every day on the national stage, and we suffered as we saw our neighbors piling up in body bags.

The man who was supposed to protect this country put it in peril, because of his recklessness and impulsiveness. It was like an abusive father ruling the family by fear and violent behavior.  That was the consequence of New York’s warning getting ignored. Next time, we know it will be worse.

Make no mistake: the twice-impeached, 4-time indicted Donald Trump is still a fool. But we can’t let our fellow Americans write him off like one. Evil thrives in the shadow of dismissive mockery, which is why we must take the danger of Donald Trump very seriously.

So, today I issue another warning.

From this place where Abraham Lincoln spoke — right here in the beating heart of New York — to the rest of America:

This is our last chance.

Democracy won’t survive the return of a wannabe dictator.

And it won’t overcome evil if we are divided.

So what do we do about it?  We have to take today into tomorrow – take it outside these walls.   We have to reach out to the half of our country who have ignored the hazards of Trump and, for whatever reason, support elevating him back into the White House.  They’re not stupid, and we must not condemn them for making a stupid choice.  Our future doesn’t just depend on us. It depends on them.

Let’s reach out to Trump’s followers with respect.  Let’s not talk about “democracy.” 

“Democracy” may be our holy grail, but to others it is just a word, a concept, and in their embrace of Trump, they’ve already turned their backs on it.  Let’s talk about right and wrong.  Let’s talk about humanity.  Let’s talk about kindness.  Security for our world.  Safety for our families.  Decency.  Let’s welcome them back.  We won’t get them all, but we can get enough to end the nightmare of Trump.”

Well said, Robert De Niro!

Please retweet and ❤️ to thank Robert De Niro for calling out Donald Trump — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a woke new Twitter competitor that banned Trump for life and is exploding in popularity because Elon Musk banned Tribel’s Twitter account — but he forgot to ban this link to download the new Tribel app: https://t.co/HnJzSKjCwX

This is not fighting for freedom. This is barbarism for the sake of barbarism.
