@Weslincolnr @zahraeb @cesttravis @theurbangeog I love this! Songs that come to mind right off the bat: Vienna by Billy Joel, Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains) by Arcade Fire, Vancouver Time by Leif Vollebekk...

@charlesincities @CBCStephenQuinn This is amazing. Well said 🙌

[Celia Beketa @celiabek]

It's hard to put to words how happy I feel after this @janeswalk weekend. One of the highlights was exploring what the 'heart of the city' means through photography, with folks from Toronto and Vienna. @JanesWalkTO and @JanesWalkVienna thank you for a truly memorable weekend! 🥰

NEW: The City of Toronto just announced it spent ~$2,000,000 to violently evict 60 people experiencing homelessness from park encampments this summer.

This is class warfare.

They'd rather spend money to hide people living in poverty than actually help people living in poverty.

[Progress Toronto @progresstoronto]

Together, we won more washrooms & sinks in parks! Earlier this year City Council voted against more washrooms & because of public pressure, today they supported facilities in parks.

We're also happy to see that @kristynwongtam's motion on providing water in parks also passed 🥳

How might we all become archaeologists of cities? How might we undo some of the erasures of cities, and uncover inscriptions rather than superimpose our own? @janeswalk @janeswalkldnuk @MASNYC

“We are smartphones endowed with consciousness ... we are closing ourselves off to the ballet of the city.” Author Matthew Beaumont on distracted, technology-wired city walking. How often are you *truly* present while walking? @janeswalk @janeswalkldnuk @MASNYC

@JanesWalkTO @jaxonair @theurbangeog Would love to see you lead a walk too! Or... OR... perhaps more of a virtual 'cruise' in your new amphibious canoe and bike cart set-up? Adventures à la Toronto Island variety? ✨

[Celia Beketa @celiabek]
