Hey guys, I’m starting to think that maybe all this crazy traffic might be caused by having too many cars in the roads.

[TDot Resident @TDotResident]

Does anyone else find it ridiculous that Doug Ford is trying to pivot from bike lanes to international trade deals? He actually thinks that he’s the Mayor of Toronto and PM of Canada.

Pierre Poilievre says the CPC will vote against the GST bill and are against sending the $250 cheques out, calling it “irresponsible and inflationist” #cdnpoli

I updated the graphic given today’s news from the province.

[Kristyn Wong-Tam 🇨🇦 @kristynwongtam]

Our NDP proposal to subsidize trucks on Highway 407 tolls is still the best way to reduce congestion. Supported by experts, it's still the fastest, greenest and cheapest option. Ford and the PCs voted it down.

It took nearly 20 years to build the subway extension. It was 8kms long. Ford will be unalived from old age before this would ever be finished.

[David Moscrop @David_Moscrop]

Sorry but I don't trust the premier who doesn't know how to use a laptop with a 55 kilometre, $100 billion tunnel that will take a decade or more to build along the continent's busiest highway.

[Nora Loreto @NoLore]

For the same cost as a traffic tunnel in Toronto, you could pay every working-age Torontonian to just stay home.

[Ameil J. Joseph Ph.D. (he/him) @ajesusjoseph]

In Doug's first year he cut social services by $1 billion, removed rent control, cut the basic income pilot, cancelled a minimum wage increase, cut mental health funding, & cut WSIB payments for injured workers. OW & ODSP are not enough to live on. He has put Ontario on its ass.

[Colin D'Mello | Global News @ColinDMello]

"Has he thought about this for more than 5 minutes?" asks NDP Leader Marit Stiles of Premier Doug Ford's highway congestion plan.

The Ford government announced plans to build a tunnel under Highway 401 from Brampton to Scarborough.

[Julie Wilson @JulieJCWilson]

my dude, everyone is against building a tunnel under the 401. Nobody wanted this. Fund Hospitals, you moron.

[Doug Ford @fordnation]

It took Bonnie minutes to confirm what I already knew. She opposes building a tunnel under the 401 and she’ll cancel Highway 413.

Bonnie will always say no. We’re saying yes to building and yes to getting drivers out of traffic.

[David Moscrop @David_Moscrop]

Ontarians: We’d like a doctor so we don’t die please.

A video about the Ford cottage in Muskoka and its transformation into the #GravyEstate with a massive new cottage built during the pandemic and the AirBnb

[Julie Wilson @JulieJCWilson]

@Budrino Nobody i know owns a cottage. Not a single one of my millennial friends from working class families owns a cottage. The only time we go to a cottage is when we rent one from Airbnb.
