Enough is enough, no one should be scared of crossing roads but with more & more congestion plus distracted drivers, it's hard to feel safe. This report coming to council suggests upgrading many to proper traffic lights and I'm all for it! #TOpoli

No one ran a strong campaign against him in 2022 and in 2018 he only won by a very narrow margin against his fellow incumbent. Then the other side of the coin is very few people in the ward vote for municipal because they don't feel there are options. A strong, organized alternative is what's needed

Feb 10 2026
The City Council budget debate got me thinking today and it got me writing as well - some thoughts as we head into the season of sitting Councillors hunting for sound bites for the fall election - also known as Silly Season! #TOpoli #ONpoli

The Student Nutrition program really upsets people in his ward when they hear he is AGAINST funding it and its obvious to me that not only do we need fresh blood in Etobicoke Centre, but at the core of it, we need a rep who has compassion for all residents.

Former Texas Lege reporter here. A Dem hasn't held this seat since 1990. Tarrant is the safest of red suburban counties. There is no way the TX and national GOP aren't in panic mode right now.

urbanism is very interesting in that it seems to be *the* way a lot of people are becoming politically / socially engaged

Not the $30M the feds had warned about, and frankly this feels like the worst of both worlds: big enough to irritate but not big enough to change behaviour (clearly)

Saint Paul schools will be closed Tuesday and Wednesday to prepare for optional online learning.
I’ve seen schools close for snow, for pandemic, for natural disaster. I’ve never seen schools close because of threat from our own government.

A modern brick building with large glass windows, illuminated from within, situated at an urban intersection. Streetcar overhead lines and traffic signals are visible in the foreground, with a person standing nearby. The scene captures an early evening sky.
“New ideas must use old buildings” - Jane Jacobs.
The 1907 Home Furniture Carpet building on Queen Street East in Toronto will soon be the location of a new public library.

Armed men going door to door demanding your papers is textbook fascism.
The federal government of the United States has been temporarily occupied by a fascist insurgency and they must be removed.
