Bradford is running to be mayor of a version of Toronto that only exists in the imaginations of internet trolls and scared suburbanites.

Chow is running to be mayor of the city that actually exists and that she has actually helped improve in 3 short years.

@PlannerSean @TDotResident Is that that "default saturation setting"?

Doug Ford's scheme to expand Toronto's Island airport for jets will cancel thousands of homes being built during the worst housing crisis in Ontario history.

Some people have no trouble recognizing inflation when it hits their grocery bill or gas tank, but then become strangely confused when talking about education funding keeping pace with that same inflation.

Anne Read: "of course I do not class myself as a terrorist. I accept that I am classed as one by a govt that supports terrorist regimes"

Trudi Warner: "One of the tricks that authoritarian govts play is to label opponents.. as terrorists"

Both women were arrested yesterday.

The GTA is a Liberal fortress, until it isn't

This unpopular AF casino/airport scam from a criminal Premier that planned it in secret (and passed laws to hide the crimes) should NOT be the hill the LPC die on

Carney can't be this naive. He has to kill this bs. He MUST kill it.

The RCMP announced a Greenbelt investigation in 2023.

It’s now 2026.

No charges. No public update. No explanation.

Ontarians don’t need a particular outcome.

We do deserve transparency.

What’s the status of the investigation?

Tensions ran high & frustrations were palpable at a TDSB parent budget meeting Tuesday night, where parents pressed for answers on hundreds of staff cuts and program reductions planned for this fall.

But the Ford government-appointed TDSB Supervisor didn’t answer questions during the meeting & declined an interview with me afterward. Watch:

This is how broken the democratic process in Canada is. A mega bank based in America hired an army of ex-Liberals, Conservatives and NDPers and bolted the issue of Billy Bishop expansion to the top of the priority list for Ford and Carney.

No one voted for it. No one wanted it. No one campaigned on it. Torontonians are massively against it.

We are under economic warfare. Ontario govt wiped out OSAP for students. Yet govts think it wise to spend their resources on an issue no one wanted except one mega US bank.

This is the key danger of privatization. These foreign equity banks are massive, comparable to govts and have ability to bribe and buy out govts. JP Morgan just did it.

@NoJetsTO @normsworld I’ve said it before. If a proposal to build a dense, vibrant community immediately beside Pearson sounds like folly, then so should expanding an airport immediately beside such an existing community.

Grocery stores asking struggling customers to “donate to fight hunger” at the checkout while they throw out perfectly good food behind closed doors is one of the biggest hypocrisies in our society.

If food is still safe to eat and within days of expiring, it should be going to food banks, shelters, and people in need, not dumpsters.

We don’t have a food shortage, we have a system that would rather waste food than feed people.

Ontario is losing farmland at the rate of 9 family farms a week. Greens have a solution, protecting farmland forever by establishing a Foodbelt.

It pays to be a friend of Premier Ford.

Just ask Mr. Nigro (who sat at the Premier's table at a Ford daughter's wedding).

Mr. Nigro sued Metrolinx for $500 million (they settled out-of-court) AND was reappointed to the board of the LCBO.

All on the taxpayer's dime.

Students from Gaza have been waiting over two years to continue their studies at Canadian universities. What the Minister won't tell you - Canada could admit these students today.
This is Canada's loss. This is Canada's shame!

This is a desperate move by Doug Ford to ram his shady FOI changes through legislature.

The Premier so clearly has something to hide.

This is shameful. Ontarians deserve better. They deserve a government who will be honest with them.

[P.b.Freire @Freire1Pb]

Ford flooding the zone in Ottawa to overwhelm media, confuse the public & exhaust political opponents as Ford is trying to distract after changing FOI access laws to keep how Ford, cabinet, parliamentary asssistance spend our taxpayers dollars a secret.

Tina Yazdani found Sylvia Jones giving “unprecedented” public money to private hospitals & clinics: funding up 300%. Ontarians paying more for surgeries at Don Mills (DM) surgical clinic. Cataract surgery costs avg $500 at public hospital vs. $1,200 at DM.
