Don’t you dare bring up AIDS in your COVID comments, @jkenney, and pretend you’re some sort of human rights defender. We know your record on that. You fought to keep gay people from visiting their dying partners in hospital. Stop.

Communities who are dissatisfied with Metrolinx engagement process are speaking up and are getting support from City Council. Will @Metrolinx respond to the calls for review? https://t.co/buo9k8804c

If you wouldn't build your house like this,

What a fun experience it was diving deeper into the world of winter cycling and getting a taste of the immense amount of work those in the podcasting industry put into their work- can’t wait to work together again ✨🚲 @mccoy_cam
