If he’s willing to have this as part of his campaign? Imagine his judgement in a position of actual leadership. #NahNahford

This passage is jaw-dropping. Bradford's staff are urging people to upload all of their friend's contact info to their app.

The Ford government is set to limit debate and public hearings on its bike lanes law, claiming there's not enough time left in the current legislative agenda.

The government also delayed the start of the session by a month and a half.

#topoli #onpoli There's a cyclist riding around in Toronto right now who will die because of @fordnation's ridiculous and politically motivated decisions. That person just don't know it yet. Who will it be? Your child? Your parent? Your neighbour? Your friend? Criminal.

And also release the proposal on Halloween, when everyone in the entire city is distracted by trying to get their kids home and out trick-or-treating?

[Grant Burns @Grant_AB]

Again, Ontario's Premier has decided to destroy whatever he wants. Destroying transportation infrastructure that improves traffic flow and keeps Ontarians safe is idiotic and sadistic.

[Colin D'Mello | Global News @ColinDMello]

NEW: As first reported by Global News, the Ford government has begun the process of removing bike lanes from three Toronto streets: Yonge st., Bloor St., University Ave.

This ideological cretin is going to pass legislation to rip up the roads that and make traffic in Toronto WORSE simply because his opinion is that bike lanes are bad.

[Louis Century @LouisCentury]

Ford has had personal animus against downtown cyclists for years. Here he is describing cyclists on his morning commute as a “menace” in Ford Nation (2016). This new anti-bike lane law fulfills @fordnation’s longstanding disdain for cyclists. It will cost lives. Inexcusable.

[Louis Century @LouisCentury]

Premier of Ontario openly admitting that his plan to force Toronto to rip up bike lanes on University Ave, putting lives in danger, is because it’s his personal commute.

“And it’s just a real nightmare going up University. When we go to Queen’s Park, for example, it’s insanity.”

[Grant Burns @Grant_AB]

Truth.

[Catherine Fife @CFifeKW]

The negative impacts of #Bill124 in Ontario will be longstanding & costly. It was unconstitutional, and the govt knew it. You don’t stabilize the economy or province by holding workers down. Especially during a pandemic. #onpoli

A French man who calls himself "The Snake Man" was arrested this week after climbing up the side of a Manhattan high rise.

Yep, he climbed right up the side of a high rise.

Just like a snake!

Instead of more porkies from the Ford government, folks should read @CdnArch’s excellent series of deep technical dives into the Ontario Science Centre engineering report and what it actually says:

When you read this, it's hard to see the closure of the Ontario Science Centre as anything other than what @alexbozikovic called it: a betrayal.

[Alex Bozikovic @alexbozikovic]

The Ontario government is shutting the Science Centre today citing an engineer’s report – which does *not* say the place must close or that all work is urgent. What a betrayal.

[Grant Burns @Grant_AB]

@jasonwagar Coincidences are so weird!

[Jason Wagar @jasonwagar]

And it’s just SUCH A COINCIDENCE that the Ontario Science Centre board, who last night decided to close the site, is stacked with Conservative insiders… #onpoli

This is the last school bus leaving the Science Centre due to Premier Ford.

Thanks a bunch, Doug!

"Piece by piece, place by place, we see the cost of trying to save money in the short term by not taking care of our stuff over the long term." Fabulous column from @thekeenanwire: Ontario Science Centre has one last hard lesson to teach us all. https://t.co/rkmbaCf8jq
