@MikePMoffatt "On the left", which serious person / account on Twitter is saying this?

[Urban Cayman @ProjectEND]

@anotherglassbox Tell me you did it!

[Urban Cayman @ProjectEND]

@thecoreyhotline @ElectionDigest I do, yes. Doesn’t go remotely far enough but it’s light years ahead of the opposition.

[Urban Cayman @ProjectEND]

@SwanBoatSteve Haha fair enough!

[Urban Cayman @ProjectEND]

It's so painful to see catenary at St. Clair and Oakwood. We used to be a real City, I can't believe Olivia tore this all out.

[Old Canada Series @oldcanadaseries]

Did you know Toronto used blue buses from Edmonton in the early 90s?

[Urban Cayman @ProjectEND]

@thegrittymag “Well researched” lol

[Urban Cayman @ProjectEND]

@thecoreyhotline @ElectionDigest Seems people feel that “fame and renown” was and is earned, given where we’re at in this cycle, no?

@Krush_Canada @tobi Turpitude?

@jusdirtmcgirt @EVYSTADIUM Hell yeah 🤘

@GConnaughton @JShamess That was a lot of words to say: we don't really have these kinds of enormous warehouses sitting vacant & willing to take a golf tenant to stem the bleeding. There are some inflatable dome facilities but they're seasonal, & I don't think given the scale, they could afford the rent

[Urban Cayman @ProjectEND]

@GConnaughton @JShamess It's also that since 2022-ish, industrial has been Ontario's hottest asset class. To the point where several traditional (res & comm) developers got into it & have done million sf + facilities. Fiera was just giving people $10/sf rent jumps & saying 'if you don't like it, leave'.

@DEh40720169bot @briketysplit I, too, love “facts”.

@jcorriv35 Did we even get them in Canada?

[Noah Sinclair @noahcites]

Brian, Chow took office in July 2023. Your own data shows crime surged under Tory, peaked in '23, then declined in '24 and '25

So why is Chow responsible for the increase she inherited, but gets no credit for the decline?

Is this journalism, or just a grudge with a spreadsheet?

@davidcapizzano You can do incredible things when your primary driver isn't investor returns!

[Progress Toronto @progresstoronto]

We don’t agree with Nick Kouvalis on much, but we do agree politicians need to have principles and that Brad Bradford has none.

Brad went from a progressive who voted to defund the police to courting MAGA supporters. Why should you trust his word?

Listen to Kouvalis yourself ⬇️

[Urban Cayman @ProjectEND]

@pierreconvert @UrbanCourtyard Nope, you are correct

[Urban Cayman @ProjectEND]

@StephenWickens1 @PeterMilczyn @EmilyFarina5 They don't & we cannot. There's just no return on two storeys of res over retail that would give anyone appetite to do it. You'd also need the City to take land & subdivide it so small lots are created out of large parking lots. We simply cannot recreate the old urban patterns.
