Reading the @LFPress local news section these days feels like reading crime statistics reports. No wonder most ppl I talk to about our fine city have negative opinions. I lament the loss of local community news.

Off on a @VIA_Rail adventure to Ottawa in lieu of a cancelled flight. Wishing a safe journey to my @AMOPolicy colleagues from acr Ont. #AMO2025

I have a lot of respect for ⁦@HonEdFast⁩ and I enjoyed working with him. Parachuting candidates is disrespectful to the locality. Abbotsford, #oxfordcounty, etc. it’s just wrong. Riling up Mr. fast is not an easy thing to do! #cdnpoli https://t.co/T49H5U2l7B

Trump tells Americans to “BE CALM”. In other words, one could read: “BE PLACID”, “BE STILL”, “BE COMPLIANT”. It’s interesting how the message changes with some critical thought.

Just putting this out there as it’s not been highlighted in the initial reporting: for the first time in history (provided the chaos is contained) there will be a woman serving as Chief of Staff to POTUS. #Election2024 #USPolitics #cdnpoli

@LFPress @DaleatLFPress I for one welcome the inclusion of new perspectives and experiences from another big Canadian #cdnmuni. Welcome to the beautiful @CityofLdnOnt !

Nothing brings the sharp pace of life back faster after the cottage like the 400 hwy!

The sharp twangs of “buy America” ring out. Much work was done by Team Canada to combat this in the past. Time to dust off the playbook. #cdnpoli https://t.co/SqOH7HWLFw

I may be way off, but limiting foreign contributions or nomination ability for candidates seems pretty reasonable. That fed parties would not fully pursue this is quite concerning #cdnpoli https://t.co/2pmxCojNHg

@CorrineRahman @FCM_online That’s some impressive and effective advocacy in action. Great work for your residents on an important issue

[Adam Thompson @Urban_Adam]

@MikePMoffatt @kevinmilligan I’d vote @JimboStanford as Jake “The Snake” Roberts. He’s prolific, known for his entertaining quips, and as a now resident Australian, he’s around all sorts of animals that will eat you as soon as look at you.

@clfinn Great work from you and your team, Cheryl!

An exciting development for democracy in Canada. A very thoughtful and bold type of leader, perhaps when boldness and speaking thoughtful truth is needed most! Best of luck to Mayor Nenshi. #cdnpoli https://t.co/wLf1alQk0g

An important annual event for #cdnmuni where real learnings of what makes munis tick takes place. I’m proud of Coun. Skylar Franke who is taking #ldnont perspective fwd this week & bringing back value for @CityofLdnOnt

[Federation of Canadian Municipalities @FCM_online]

FCM Advocacy Days continue with more key meetings between municipal leaders and MPs today. We’re sharing our priorities for #Budget2024 and showing how our local solutions can help solve national challenges. #CDNmuni #CdnPoli

Good morning #HamOnt! Looking good for the holidays City Hall. Here to celebrate my better half’s milestone as a Master of Communications Management from @McMasterU. #ldnont

[Adam Thompson @Urban_Adam]

@jillylorraine Amen! I’m choosing to see the lesson here as “great things come to those that wait” :)

[Adam Thompson @Urban_Adam]

If there’s one #ldnont infra project I’m most excited about it’s the Adelaide underpass. This at grade crossing was costing Ldn businesses millions in congestion costs per day & adding 2hrs/day on avg in idle time for GHGs. When done, this project will add bang to Ldn’s economy

[Adam Thompson @Urban_Adam]

Great spot on @CBCLondon this morn w @pfragiskatos & @RobFlackEML demonstrating partnership on tackling housing supply. #ldnont is positioned well to demonstrate leadership on the national stage to take on affordability priorities. #onpoli #cdnpoli

[Adam Thompson @Urban_Adam]

Few years ago I started working alongside some national thought leaders to explore Cdn “right to housing”. Then it was the most marginalized. Now it also includes too much of our middle class as well. Too many are suffering right now. This is a national crisis. #ldnont #cdnpoli
