Another rain day in December. No we're not imagining it. #Toronto #winter is milder. As this Star article reports, @climatecentral.bsky.social has the data to demonstrate that our city has lost 13 freezing days (days below 0 Celsius) in the past 10 years. #climatechange

In urban environments, such as #urban #waterfronts, often it's the 'little' things that make a difference. #Toronto #Harbour's many #dockwalls are crumbling. Bureaucratic intertia & unclear lines of responsibility are letting this happen.

At our Holiday Season Board gathering, we're talking new visions for the #Toronto #Waterfront. Let's challenge assumptions. Let's bring more housing, more park space, more access to our waterfront in 2025.

Thanks for your kind words. At a minimum is to drive conversation. As we say to 'fans' of the #IslandAirport (and yes indeed some of W4A folks have flown from there), if you believe we should have airport use on the Island for the next 60 years, surely you are willing to make the case? #Toronto
