@scotiabank when will I see yesterday's BoC rate decrease reflected on my variable mortgage? Remember, you raised it within hours of every past BoC increase.

Maybe we can trim that 16% property tax increase if we stop destroying infrastructure with mountains of salt. (The lake would be happier, too.) @MayorOliviaChow . #TOpoli

Hi. I'd like to accept fewer services in exchange for not paying a 16% property tax increase. Thank you. #TOpoli

Today’s Staff Budget is the first step towards getting our city back on track and fixing the things that are broken.

The Staff Budget protects city services while addressing the financial mess we inherited — the $1.8 billion budget shortfall. 1/n

@cityoftoronto This salt plan is 20 years old. It's not "cost effective" if is destroys infrastructure, to say nothing of the environmental disaster. Time to do better.

[Geoff Morgan @ixianmachine]

@TTChelps Yes. That’s very clear to people stuck on the subway for the last couple hours. You should give them guidance on how to get home. Should they abandon the subway and find an alternate route or wait it out?

[Geoff Morgan @ixianmachine]

@TTChelps please tell Subway passengers what’s going on.

@MayorOliviaChow we can't have what we can't afford. "Make someone else pay" isn't a solution. Hope isn't a plan. Time to cut services and also make a business case for keeping more of the revenue generated in Toronto.

[Geoff Morgan @ixianmachine]

@MayorOliviaChow Thanks for your focus. The city's "better design" on the Queensway west of the KQQR intersection will kill cyclists. The city has indicated this is acceptable.

[Geoff Morgan @ixianmachine]

@MayorOliviaChow I'm working. The warplanes are pissing me off. If another ones flies over my house today, you don't get to charge me municipal tax for 12 months. Lack of reply indicates acceptance.

@Brenntag is publicly traded in Germany, so a little media coverage over there and, say, a $100M fine should get their attention. Over to you @ONenvironment. CC: @bund_net @Umwelthilfe

Wilfully blind is only way to describe our treatment of lakes & rivers that make up Great Lakes watershed. The sewage & stormwater we release into our waters (including pesticides, fire retardant chemicals, etc) is terribly damaging. @swimdrinkfish https://t.co/Ncaw6gpPxu

Inflation is up, and the biggest driver of inflation remains mortgage-interest costs. @bankofcanada will once again raise rates...to fight inflation.

So good.

Dear @PurolatorInc, when you ask yourself "should I drive in the dedicated, separated bike lanes?" The answer is always no. For next time, OK?

[Geoff Morgan @ixianmachine]

Dear @bankofcanada what are the *other* things you've tried, if any? Serious question.

[Bank of Canada @bankofcanada]

We have increased our policy interest rate to 5.00%.
