I am a signatory to this letter.

Open, fully informed and unbiased public hearings are required, supported by due diligence and meaningful analysis.

The public cannot be expected to provide informed feedback when neither the proposal nor its impacts have been properly presented.

Forgive us for being suspicious, but all we have so far is a process the Province deliberately rushed into place to cut Torontonians out, and a federal consultation process built around a survey that reflects neither the complexity of the issue nor the information needed to properly evaluate it.

I wrote to Prime Minister Carney today.

Doug Ford said Canada wasn't for sale. Then he rammed through the Billy Bishop expansion – pushed by an American company tied to JP Morgan.

Toronto's waterfront is being handed to Wall Street.

The expansion can't proceed without federal approval. Prime Minister, don't approve it.

Who's behind the massive lobbying campaign to expand the island airport? What I discovered should worry us all https://t.co/RsSippjdUX via @torontostar

I don’t remember Mark Carney saying anything about privatization when he was asking for your vote

¡Es bellísima esta nueva versión de Confortably Numb que hizo Roger Waters para Palestina!

Waters se lo envió Yanis Varoufakis, quien lo mostró el 4 de mayo durante el discurso de la gran @FranceskAlbs.

The Toronto Islands have been a cherished public space for generations — for rest, nature and community in the heart of our largest city. They belong to the people. 

The federal government absolutely must use its powers to stop Ford's reckless land grab.

Speaking of @JeffBezos & his @washingtonpost waving a white flag toward Trump—the brilliant historians @anneapplebaum & @TimothySnyder, both authoritarianism/fascism experts, call that “anticipatory obedience” in this great conversation with @jheil. https://t.co/lGYCBMwjO0

@rensole @ryancohen I have the same question. I don't recall ever hearing the the GameStop board answer an individual shareholder's question that was posted to meeting's Q&A tool. Mine certainly hasn't been.

Morgan Stanley was just fined $249M by the SEC:

They were leaking information about pending block trades, resulting in higher profits for the bank and poor execution quality for the institutions executing the blocks. It reminded me of this study done by Liquidnet back in 2015 or 2016:

While Liquidnet focused on Canadian block trading it's clear that the same thing holds true in the US based on this Morgan Stanley case. Look at the difference when executing a block on Liquidnet Canada versus brokers like Morgan Stanley:

This extremely large table includes Morgan Stanley and shows clearly that they're not alone in disadvantaging block trades.

Are there more enforcement actions to come from @SECGov? Let's hope - this one included barring the main guy from the securities industry, so not just a cost of doing business here, along with criminal referrals to SDNY (although those resulted in deferred prosecution agreements).

Interesting topic on Reddit r/Millennials in which seemingly hundreds of people who are not part of the long COVID community realize that they have long COVID. Some choice comments but the whole thing is worth reading:
