What happens tomorrow in Toronto has impacts far beyond the city line. The decisions whoever you elect tomorrow makes for housing has far reaching implications. We can only protect farmland, water and nature with a vibrant well planned city south of it.
It's neck and neck - for the Mayoralty - and in so many key Toronto City Council. Candidates need your pro-housing, pro-environment, pro-greenbelt vote.
Tell them they'll only get it if they continue Toronto's brand new policy path. 👇

We need your support to keep the cameras rolling in Ontario. We are asking the Government of Ontario to act in this year's Fall Economic Statement, and the government needs to hear directly from you.
Ask the Government of Ontario to take action, now: filmontario.ca/keep-ontario-…

The current United States administration is attempting to economically cripple Canada, and separatists are willing to collude with America to break the country up.
It is not an exaggeration that Canada is under a very real existential threat.
So the news today is that both the Alberta separatists and the Quebec separatists have been holding (or seeking) meetings with the Trump administration — colluding with a foreign power in the service of its ambition to break up the country and absorb it piece by piece. For how long are we going to continue to treat this as a legitimate political “option”?

“Air pollution fell substantially as Paris restricted car traffic and made way for parks, people-streets and bike-lanes.”
Better for the climate, better for health, better for livability and quality of life.
Common sense.
Such a no-brainer, it’s remarkable that more cities HAVEN’T done the same.

There were 63 million trips by bike in Toronto in 2025.
If you think bike lanes cause congestion, wait until you see the congestion bikes cause without bike lanes.
A bike lane on my daily commute is now being dangerously removed. So I, too, will take the traffic lane, as I am entitled to do.
A remarkably stupid situation.

NEW: The Ford government spent $2.1 million promoting its Ontario Place redevelopment last year, as part of a total $9.38 million advertising spend by the tourism ministry.
Across four ministries, we’ve now uncovered more than $65 million in taxpayer-funded advertising.

Metrolinx owns this line. Metrolinx is implicated in mob activities and transferring public money to organized crime including sanctioned Russians
Unsurprising that a LOT of money is missing

Or the headline could read - “Through historic corruption and organized crime ties the Ford govt has successfully transferred billions of your dollars to shady businesses”
Through our historic $70 billion expansion of public transit, we’re supporting tens of thousands of good-paying construction jobs every year on projects like the Eglinton Crosstown West Extension.
Across Ontario, we’re keeping workers on the job while fighting gridlock and connecting commuters to reliable, affordable transit.

Doug Ford is bad with money. He's run a deficit in eight of his nine years in office, he's driven Ontario's debt to nearly half a trillion dollars, and we now spend more paying interest on that debt than we spend on colleges and universities. And on top of all that, he's reaching into your pocket for jets and hotel rooms. It's time to get him and this tired government out of the way.

That's what decades of unwillingness to reallocate road space to more space-efficient modes of transportation will do. – at Toronto, Ontario

NEW: we’re learning more about the cost of “Protect Ontario” ads to taxpayers.
FOI records show the cost for just one ministry to produce & run them last year was nearly $10 million.
The total the Ford government has spent across all ministries is expected to be much higher.

Everyone in Canada howling about defunding the CBC is mad that Hockey Night in Canada is moving to a paid sports channel. I mean, that's what you wanted, right?
Don Cornelius retweeted
Hockey Night in Canada should continue, but carrying Canadian PWHL games.
Hockey Night in Canada on CBC is the eighth longest running TV show in THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD at 72 seasons.
Add in radio, and it's been a Saturday night fixture for families on CBC for 90 years.
There has never been a Canadian cultural institution like it, and there never will be again.

NEWS: The EPA wants to remove the drinking water limits on four forever chemicals, including the notorious North Carolina Cape Fear River contaminant, GenX.
They are officially proposing to kill the nationwide standards set under Biden and start over.

Here’s Little Norway Park, which Ford PCs have expropriated, probably to build a parking lot for a bigger island airport terminal
Assume they will hand it over to Nieuport Aviation, which runs the airport terminal and is owned by JP Morgan

I agree. This event has been meteorologically astonishing, and its impacts will be felt long after it ends in terms of record low snowpack, sharply increased wildfire risk, and extreme low watershed runoff/streamflow into summer and beyond.
