Toronto has a huge opportunity before us. The upcoming election is a chance to elect a progressive city council that can effect meaningful change. I want to help lead this movement. I will be running in the upcoming municipal election in University Rosedale. Read my statement.

[John Cartwright @cartwrightTO]

Welcome news! @m_layton was a strong and tireless advocate for working people at City Hall, and a key leader on ##ClimateAction. His experience will be needed as our city charts a progressive course in challenging times

This week the 4 biggest publicly-traded Canadian oil companies posted $13.3b after-tax profit in the 2nd quarter ($146m per DAY). Like other global oil giants, they are getting rich from the misery caused by Trump's war. My take in today's @TorontoStar: https://t.co/wuije5OoAJ /2

@s_guilbeault @acoyne @TorontoStar Thank you for honesty. Watching the @liberal_party government jettison nearly everything you achieved must be heartbreaking

Why does Canada make cars anyway, Jamieson Greer asks? Because we make them better than America does. And we spend $100 b/yr buying 2 million of them! @UniforTheUnion's 2026 round of talks with Ford can highlight the industry's staying power here. #canlab https://t.co/mj8gUSfuy6

1/ This announcement marks the Carney government’s official surrender to the oil and gas lobby.


By gutting carbon pricing to the point of irrelevance, it has dismantled the last federal climate measure standing. We now have a federal government that no longer even pretends to rein in big corporate polluters.

The owners of said assets would like to remind PM @MarkJCarney that Canadians voted against the privatization of public assets when we chose not to elect Poilievre.

[Maude Barlow @MaudeBarlow]

The privatization of everything. Soon trillionaires and asset managers will own the world
