Don't miss this excellent, insightful story, the last in our Divided City issue. "The point here isn’t simply that some Toronto communities have elegant Victorian homes while others have drab towers. It is, rather, that the drab towers exist because of the elegant homes."
Voting in Don Valley West is usually a sleepy affair, writes @wencyleung. But with accusations of bigotry, legal threats, and behind-the-scenes manoeuvring, the by-election has become a contentious, partisan battle. #topoli https://t.co/yEdJlNmdp8
This @SimonLewsen feature on the tale two neighbourhoods—with fights over new developments in the Annex, and rent strikes in Crescent Town—is the story of the last fifty years of Toronto. With gorgeous photos by @chloeellingson. https://t.co/I9TclUBtV4
Toronto's population has more than doubled since 1971, but many neighbourhoods—the tree-lined, affluent ones—have gotten less dense. In a big (dare I say, "sprawling"?) essay for @thelocal, I explain how uneven densification makes life worse for everybody. 📸 by @chloeellingson
The Annex has fewer residents today than in 1971. The towers of Crescent Town have far more. @simonlewsen on how the uneven, illogical densification pattern of the last 50 years created today’s Toronto. https://t.co/AOSmsHTIF0

Great to see @Bren_Doherty talk about his sprawling feature on Toronto encampments and the failure of municipal policy on The Big Story today. If you haven't read the story yet, don't miss it! https://t.co/6T1nvdKeHW
A deeply compassionate interview: "People living in encampments are really not much different from you...if you were put in an encampment tomorrow, and forced to live in it for a month, a lot of what you currently see as weird, or aggressive, or even dangerous, would make sense."
Millions of bison once roamed the grasslands, until colonialism nearly wiped them out. Now, Indigenous people are bringing them back and restoring balance to their homelands. https://t.co/O5Gg6b8dmC
