🚨🚨 City of Toronto is going to resurface Eglinton Ave between Keele and Mt Pleasant without the already approved bike lanes.
We need to do something right now.
Since we’re talking about #RapidTO, City staff have confirmed the following numbers:
On the Dufferin corridor:
40,000 ride transit per day
Only 20,000 cars take the corridor per day (the average car holds around 1.1 - 1.5 people per vehicle, depending on the time of day).

No thanks. Was trying not to prejudge based on her husband but she came right out of the gates with NIMBY dog whistles.

Get in, losers
The Greens have a full, costed platform out. Would love to see that as a debate commission requirement to participate!
80+% of both Democrats and Republicans believe America would be better off if more Americans worked in manufacturing, but < 30% say that about themselves.
The bipartisan belief that America would be a better place if *other people* worked in a factory.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado.
11,000 people showed up.
Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.
Everything you need to know about Pierre Polievre's MAGA MAPLE.
They have no policies just smears.
I have known Poilievre for 21 years.
He is unfit for public office.

i wrote a whole book in the time it took to get between rosedale and bloor-yonge on the subway
the book is called "Hire a CEO who uses the TTC and wants to fix it":

(just kidding, our little team wrote this several months ago)
Canadian MP Charlie Angus: I am here today to urge Canadians to avoid travel to the United States if at all possible and to call on our government to stand up for our citizens who are being denied their rights through arbitrary detention in the United States.
TTC fare enforcement officers will now begin enforcing fares on buses across toronto.
lower income, racialized riders disproportionately ride buses. middle & high school kids especially are going to be unfairly targeted. how are they supposed to pay a $425 fine? i asked that to this reporter:
1/4
Here is my latest reflection.
The attack on President Zelenskyy shattered the last of our wishful thinking.
Many countries hoped that if they fawned over him, he would pick on someone else.
Now we know: that we either stand up or get dragged into the abyss.

smartvoting projections for university-rosedale, recommending a liberal vote
smartvoting projections for toronto centre, recommending a liberal vote
smartvoting projections for toronto-st pauls, recommending a liberal vote
if you're voting strategically for the ontario election to get more progressive seats (green/ndp/liberal), use votewell.
smartvoting leans towards liberal recommendations.
even in these tight toronto races with no strategic vote (cons won't win), they're still telling people to vote liberal 🤨

Couple days ago, despite the snow storm I decided to go ahead with running my community sewing program in Scarborough. To my surprise tons of folks still showed up. Brings a tear to my eye to know I created a program people are willing to come out to in the middle of a snow storm for 🥲
🎉 My family won $10,000, with my cut going towards our community initiatives, and now we're back for more! Tune in today at 7:30 PM on CBC to see if we can do it again! Or catch the action anytime on CBC Gem (Season 6, Episodes 23/24 & maybe more? ...)

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare.
Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.”
We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽
Highly Disappointing!

On the day of a ceasefire deal, I want to share with you the story of a trailblazing Palestinian-American journalist.
She was shot dead in 2022, almost certainly by the IDF, as she reported in the West Bank.
My newsroom wouldn’t publish the story.
Here it is: open.substack.com/pub/rachelgi...
The Royal Bank of Canada & Bank of Montreal signal they will quit the Net Zero Banking Alliance, which is meant to advance climate action.
We warned their membership was #greenwashing, but quitting while fossil-fueled wildfires burn in Los Angeles seems both out of touch and the wrong move.
