@SeanRobichaud Isn't the historical comparison also apples to oranges because of the broader arsenal of sentencing options for reformatory-length sentences available now (ie. CSOs and intermittent sentences)? Now if you're not going to the pen, you may have a good shot at a CSO.
@CitImmCanada I still haven't heard back from anyone from @CitimmCanada. This is a life or death situation. Can you please contact me about an application filed Oct 2022 that has become extremely urgent.
@CitImmCanada we submttd Group of 5 application under the Special Program for Afghans in October of 2022 for an extremely urgent case, yet we just learned that your office hasn't even open the file yet. It's impossible to call your office. Can you please contact me about this?

I have decided to run for Mayor of Toronto.
I want a city for EVERYONE.
I’ll register today at City Hall at 10:30, and launch on Monday morning. We can / must have an affordable, equitable, sustainable Toronto for EVERYONE.

Earlier this week crews unearthed this super creepy-looking old tunnel while excavating ‘the elbow’! Just call me Indiana Jones.
That's cool that police departments are now individually determining what limits to Charter rights can be justified in a free and democratic society. Can someone flip me a copy of the decision? Oh it's just a tweet?
Is there any good reason why an accused could not be sent a text reminder a week before the court date, along with a zoom link so they actually know how to call in?
