@m_layton @Walk_TO I had two people turn their cars right in front of my stroller with my two young children in it, cutting me off while I had the right of way to walk at the corner of Lansdowne and Bloor. We need to toll cars coming into downtown like they do in London

@rangerwyld @m_layton @mary_margaret32 Glad you called the police.

[katherine sparkes @sparkes_k]

@jen_keesmaat Yes.

@beckiemorrison_ @KristoferHykel Are they seriously hating on the sound of children laughing and playing?

Today is Thomas and Jude's birthday. T is turning 4, but Jude isn't. He died on May 6/16 from flu B. He was a perfectly healthy two-year-old. Today I get to spoil T when he's home from school, but I'll never get to hug Jude again. Let me tell you about him. /1

@Oprah - please run in #Election2018 as a preface to any #POTUS2020 run to get experience in government and counter any arguments that you don't have the experience to govern.

@cnutsmith - have you tried Union Chicken in Union Station?? It's a place this delicious (with great service to boot) that makes me miss your reviews #fan #organicchicken #toronto

@311Toronto the metal plates the City placed on the road to cover a whole on St. Clarens Ave. between Bloor and Paton are shifting and a gap is opening up. Worried a vehicle could get damaged or worse.

‘If you want to save pedestrian lives, slow down the vehicles. Install more crosswalks. Add speed bumps. Lower speed limits. Widen sidewalks. Narrow roads.’ It’s not rocket science, folks.

Good morn, patrolling Shuter street #bikeTO lane at your request. Heading to river street. Already got one blocker ☹️📝$150 #lesm #bikelane

PSA with a story. #bikeTO #walkTO offenses I am not obligated to warn you before serving a tag. Be mindful during #PedestrianSafety week !

[Jennifer Keesmaat @jen_keesmaat]

Laying bare the absurdity of the Zombie Law: most pedestrian deaths in Toronto are seniors - not a demographic with a phone obsession.

@TorontoPolice @CycleToronto @JohnTory Bring back @TPS_ParkingPal - a street safety hero @TorontoPolice @johntory #biketo

We’re all sick and tired of hearing about preventable tragedies. Careless driving is unacceptable and won’t be tolerated.

@TPS_ParkingPal @freshcityfarms @TorontoPolice @ParkingTPS @AccessibleGC @AODAontario @TPS_pke_rider @TPS_BikeHart @TPS_Christina Not cool @freshcityfarms. Not cool.

@_DavidFitz Overload a carry on that has limited/no chance of fitting into any remaining overhead space and make it the flight crew's prob to solve
