Doug Ford claimed that the Ontario Line was half the cost of a traditional subway, so in that case, we should be able to build a second one; @BradMBradford now is the time to do it #OntarioLine #BradBradford #OntarioLine2

It is sad that it's taken this long; completely irresponsible on the part of Metrolinx as well as Crosslinx - There should be a public inquiry (not that it will make much difference) - These people should never see another government contract, EVER!!!

The Ontario Place privatization deal would steal 155 acres of public space and nearly 1000 trees from Ontarians… and it will take away $650 million of public funds. Sign to keep Ontario Place a public place open for all https://t.co/FOWxtXdfTd #topoli #onpoli

Ontario Place needs to be redeveloped.

But clearly, putting a privately-owned spa on the waterfront is a mistake.

Now is the time for FordCo to reload and come up with a better, more inclusive plan.

Let's explore other options.

The Ministry of Infrastructure's response to questions on their closures at Ontario Place is utterly insufficient and vague.

I’ve written to the Minister of Infrastructure to restore public access on our waterfront and for a real plan to inform the public about work at the site.

@OntarioPlace Why is construction even underway on an unapproved project, especially one as controversial and corrupt as this? The public are demanding answers, and access back to our waterfront park. This is a disgraceful abuse of taxpayer money. No one wants this development.

You can't believe anything China says; for half a century China has maintained that they respect the intellectual property of other countries yet they reverse engineer and copy virtually everything they get their hands on

"I don't believe that either big tech or big government should censor what people see and say online," says Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre of Meta's plan to temporarily block news content for some Canadians in response to C-18, the government's Online News Act.

Transit systems designed to primarily serve a downtown core with commuters (like GO Transit) are failing in a remote work world.

Everywhere to everywhere transit systems are thriving.

Russian air defences successfully intercepted a storm shadow missile at Berdyansk. Unfortunately the intact debris then struck intended target and detonated.

@marksaunders_TO I agree with Saunders on this issue
