@RogayStuff@adornos_soul I haven’t really been tuned in to the internal party restructuring conversation since the leadership election. Is there somewhere where these conversations are being had or published? What are some things Avi has advanced or changed already?
1. Bike lanes aside, 'the fundamental principle of our democratic constitutional order' is being used to deny cities local democracy. It doesn't matter as much when there's good faith at Queen's Park, but Ford's fixation on imposing suburban priorities on urban areas is despotic.
By North American standards, Mississauga is an objectively great place to live. Clean, green, safe, diverse, good skyline, etc. Even the school districts are catching up. But just zoom into these 6-lane roads, and you’ll realize why it’s basically a forested Dubai.
@REIT_REBORN@Skogur2@g_meslin you can just abbreviate it to bdsg park. it’s short, and matches the starts of each syllable. you’re just being purposefully lazy and dense when we already have so many place names originating from indigenous languages. Mississauga, Tkaronto, Kanata, Saskatchewan, Ottawa…
there is nothing that makes this development an attraction. tall residential towers and hotel surrounded by suburban infrastructure, and a mall. the city needs to do more with streetscapes if they ever plan on having an engaging downtown and not just square one.
mississauga planning is so funny because there are 3 full sized parking lots surrounding these new towers and barely 200m away is a cul-de-sac with bungalows. at street level you have blank glass nothing facades and opposite you is a 7 lane stroad. faux urbanism is so lame

@LucaR2005 He is definitely past expiry at this point, but he’s also a Ford. Like his brother, he def believes he’s carrying his family legacy on his back. I believe his narcissism will have him hold on to power until the floor falls out from under him. They are stubborn and have no shame
Only way we get an election before 2029/30 is if PCPO numbers get so bad and New Blue starts polling stronger; courting PC MPPs to revolt or cross the floor establishing NBP in legislature. Ford is so incredibly unpopular with 3-4 years left so it could be likely
Hasan Piker calls out Ritchie Torres after nine of his endorsed candidates win in New York primaries
"Ritchie Torres I know you won tonight. I'll see you in two years, motherfucker. I'm coming for you, Richie.
Sit on that fuckin seat for the next two years. I hope you remember that.
Every day, every time there's a decision that you can make where you are pro-Israel, I hope you remember.
You better act right, Ritchie."
@CanadianPolling@338Canada This is what the SKNDP and ABNDP distanced themselves from following Lewis’s election while Kinew was on the victory stage with him… utter political incompetence. I pray for them
