“A series of tubes”
I just read the story: I think they’ve revised that quote out of there, and instead describe it as a somewhat awkward response. (They also stress that that’s out of character for her.)
Agree in principle, but could do without the casual ageism.
Ontario shut down coal.
Now let’s finish the job. ☀️
OPG could triple solar at the Nanticoke site — enough for 15,300 more homes:

Thanks for documenting your trip - I took it today from Yonge and Eg to Oakwood, and it was so fast! This is going to be so nice for the east west commuters!

For the last 15 year my mom (wynford and eglinton) and I (bloor and Ossington) have been plotting to meet at Yonge and Eg for brunch via the LRT running past her house. TODAY WAS THAT DAY. Brunch was had, light rails were ridden. Flawless execution by all parties. #line5 #ttc #brunchinfrastructure
I find this view completely dispiriting.
Govt sources casually using AI to misrepresent reality is kind of the worst case scenario in terms of having a shared version of reality.
Like, the Overton Window should have shattered at the mention of invading Canada. And yet it didn't, it just slid open, and absorbed it into this rolling, crazy debate that is US politics. It feels crazy making.
@jm-mcgrath.bsky.social When Canada was feeling in the cross hairs, this is how Canadians were talking about it. Watching US pundits debate the issue, even if one side was technically against, felt like it was normalizing something that shouldn't be discussed AT ALL.
Having neighbourhoods dominated by older, smaller, independent businesses serving a particular community get ‘reset’ by extended periods of disruption leave them ripe for investment and takeover by big business and other capital interests. No conspiracy needed, you just don’t stop it from happening.
I have to admit that listening to these stories today reminded me that gentrification isn’t some organic natural force, and there’s a reason bougier areas are more supported and less impacted by infrastructure projects like this.
I appreciate the sentiment- can we please exclude Canada and Mexico from a World Cup boycott? (Actually, maybe just Mexico if Carney gets too much deeper into the Board of Peace colonialism.
I was surprised to see it - also, I should say it was the smallest possible headline format, side by side with another trade related story
It was front page this morning
"From time to time, some folks claim the CTF is not a grassroots organization because we have 'five members,'" he wrote.
"The truth is that we sometimes have four, sometimes six and currently we have five.

This is a valuable new perspective on encountering a cyber truck. Up to this point it had only filled me with repressed rage. But now I can add superiority as a positive alternative.
Weirdly I’ve seen two of these, because I DO NOT typically see horror films, but sinners and 28YL were both excellent (and set me up nicely to enjoy superman and FF as a sweet pallet cleanser)

The Toronto Circus Riot broke out on this day 170 years ago — sparked by a brawl between angry clowns and firefighters at a Victorian brothel.
Here's my annual thread about one of the strangest stories in Canadian history...
I remember legitimately feeling emotional in the opening scene, saving the crowd and the plane. It just suddenly hit me it would be so great if there was a strong person who could fly and save us from terrible events. Maybe I was just in a mood.
If you see this, quote with a robot that isn’t from Star Wars, Star Trek, Doctor Who or Transformers.
Armine, how does this relate to the overhaul and new leadership (Steven Harper?) at the Alberta pension plan? Is it moving in these same directions, and still an exception in Canada?
Yes, the cold slabs of cheese on each and every one is shocking!
Looking at the track record of Fords running on their name alone, he could do it.
Anyway, one of my very strongly held feelings in the last 5 months is that the American people are not victims.
They are perpetrators.
If the American public really wanted this to stop, they could be doing a lot more than they're currently doing.
My column this week: the grim reality of getting around in southern Ontario. Recently a bright future, there’s the catastrophic failure of Deutsche Bahn, lack of metrolinx ambition, no leadership from Ford & silly distractions w tunnels & bike lane attacks. Ford to city: enjoy the traffic.
Keep it going, Canada.
