It's easy to be distracted at a time like this, but here is Ontario's own mismanagement and abuse. @fordnation

The Premier and his Minister of Infrastructure got scammed by a broke Austrian spa company.

95-year lease. $2.2B in taxpayer dollars.

Premier, instead of “double-checking” the contract, save us all the time and money — and cancel the deal.

To put the bike lane debate in Toronto in perspective, more people commute by bike each day in Toronto than the entire population that lives in Barrie, Ontario. Or Kingston. Or Guelph. Or Sudbury.

It's pretty rich that the Province wants to tell us how to get around our own city. If they don't like sitting in traffic when they get here, they should go fix regional transit. That is their mess - and the true culprit for congestion in the city.

Anyone who understands physics knows that cyclists are part of the solution.

@kent_fisher I recognized the word "entanglement!"

@PatriciaGailLee @Journeywoman @DestinationNB @Tourisme_PA I enjoyed this post and we are adding this destination to our list! As a cyclist and former journalist, it's pedaling. 😊 (I wanted to send this as a message but can't find contact info on your site. I will delete this reply if you want.)

I was laid off from Twitter today. I was the designer in charge of our new rebranding to X.

I learned so much in my 2.5 weeks at the company but I’m excited to see where I land next.

If you’re hiring a self taught, junior designer please DM me. Graphic design is my passion!

@mbonsma @GTbikes51 Yesterday, GO offered shuttle service when the accessibility platform was unavailable on Lakeshore West.

@ZakPatterson My adrenaline is rushing and I wasn't even there! I hope you are ok and that this is not the end. (Biting my tongue to avoid saying bad words.)

@mbonsma @SinclairDenny Your municipality might have rules about that hedge. Check the regulations on "Daylight Triangle" or "Sight Triangle."

@laurchastain22 This sounds like someone who sees church as a business.

@NPEIHydro Power is out in West Lincoln -- south of Smithville. Is this related? Do you have an ETA for when it will be restored?

[Marlene Bergsma @marlenebergsma]

@DailyNewsDM @GrantRants Yes. I have watched it several times and cried each time. Imagine, a distillery doing a better job with the meaning of Christmas than most churches.

@mbonsma Makes the glitter glue and paint permanently stuck to the living room floor all worthwhile.
