Why Are New Construction Starts Falling Off A Cliff In Ontario & BC? And Why Won't Government Acknowledge It
The "Why" Starts are cratering isn't complicated I have been posting about for months but "Why" no Government comment? It's so scary for them

If you want to understand a huge divide in Toronto and WHY people are so hyped about the Ontario Line look at the main transit project Toronto built in the 2010s (Eglinton Crosstown) vs. the main one for the 2020s (Ontario Line). Not to mention we needed the OL for decades!
This Video Is Ridiculously FALSE
I Believe The Housing Minister is an intelligent, well intentioned person
Virtually every word is false with the possible exception of "and" & "the"

We can’t let city staff ruin a great thing. #CafeTO is a legacy of the pandemic that actually made Toronto more enjoyable. @BravoDavenport - please help our bar, café and restaurant owners with their patios, regardless of ward boundaries #TOpoli
After months of waiting we learned today @cityoftoronto has denied our #CafeTO patio at Bar Volo this year. We are disappointed by the news after having a patio for 3 years w. no issues. There needs to be more support for small businesses creating culture & community in our city!
