@OrbitStudios Train from London to Toronto (3.30 to 6pm) was $99. It finally left London at 5.00 and arrived in Toronto at 9.15. We ran to Massey Hall and saw most of the show. It’s getting harder to support @VIA_Rail with such frequent delays.

@rebekkahmay @CityofLdnOnt Oh Rebekkah, that's awful! I'm so sorry that you experienced that.

@HeatheratLFP @LFPress This article is intentionally misleading. The TVEF is a registered charity, established in 2001, teachers and others in the community have supported it for years. The article incorrectly implies a direct connection between the recent financial scandal and the charity.

@adammcnamara Exactly! I'm reading The Power Broker, which details the disastrous, ill-conceived and ego-driven decisions made by Robert Moses which led to the shaping & mis-shaping of NYC. I can't help but see the similarities between Moses and Ford.

Disgusting. You and your brother would be homeless addicts, too, if you didn't have deep social support networks. Each of us is only two or three strokes of bad luck from being homeless.

Those who actively work to remove public spaces are the villains of a city.
Make no mistake—they work on behalf of the few and abandon the people.

@KyleneWalker The definition of electrification, "Electrification refers to the process of replacing technologies that use fossil fuels (coal, oil, and natural gas) with technologies that use electricity as a source of energy."
One would think the Minister of Electrification would know that.

@thera1nbowroom I have an outstanding grade 12 student who is facing such hatred from peers at school that she has decided to take online courses for her final semester because she feels ostracized and unsafe at school. The adults should do all we can to make all students feel safe.

@rebekkahmay @OSSTFDistrict11 @pierotticonnor Perfect! Congrats, Connor!

Use them or lose them.

@1t1sAdam Yes, I had to make a bit of noise with Health and Safety and finally mine was changed. It shouldn't be this hard.

@David_Moscrop This is a great list, has someone mentioned those bracelets that we were all to have that beeped when we got too close to people? The government spent $2.5 million on those.

In advance of voting later this month, the Executive of OSSTF Toronto Teachers’ Bargaining Unit has unanimously passed a motion opposing the voluntary binding arbitration pathway pursued by OSSTF/FEESO.

@rebekkahmay @Sflecce Over my 30 year career I've seen sick days move from 200 bankable with a gratuity upon retirement, to 20, and now to 11. Who knows what that could be reduced to with arbitration? I agree that the potential strips to our contract could be severe with this process.

@n6a1999 @waltonmom Employee and Family Assistance Program.

[Chantal Mancini, PhD @uniongrrl]

So much this. Especially a union with no history of interest arbitration…

@mslongpre @TheBikingLawyer There's a This American Life episode about this exact experience, https://t.co/2bbQzmQ8Qc

@CTVLondon He will be in London on Monday to address the Association of Ontario Municipalities at 10.30 at RBC Place. While there will be no Fordfest free lunch, he will be in attendance at the $1000 a plate PC fund-raising luncheon at 1 in London, at an undisclosed location.

[dana harder @danabharder]

@TDotResident AMO (Assn. of Ont. Municipalities) is hosting a conference at the RBC Place and Double Tree Hilton in London on Monday, 21 August. I assume that's where Ford will be. Lunch is scheduled for 1.00.

[dana harder @danabharder]

@TDotResident Does anyone know where this will be held? I'd like to protest at the event, but even the PC website offers no specific location.
