As he ends his too-short 21-week summer vacation, what will Doug Ford's thoughts be about Mayor Chow's convincing win and a new slate of more progressive mayors?

💯 💯 💯

Bolsonaro's loss is not just a loss for Bolsonaro. It's a loss for Trump. For Musk. For Milei. For Netanyahu. For Farage. For Meta and Zuckerberg. For the meat barons, the fossil fuel corporations, and the rest of the neocolonial looters. And it is a massive win for humanity and the living planet.

Multiple lawyers, including renowned Joel Bakan, confirm that the Bradford plan to commercialize water in Toronto very much opens the door to privatization: www.thestar.com/news/gta/cit.... Shrill denials from Bradford and his billionaire backers are a clear tell. #toronto #canlab

Victory for Lula, who has already reduced Amazon deforestation by 70% since 2022, means there is now a chance of ending deforestation of the rainforest entirely I’m weeping with joy for Brazil, for the Indigenous peoples of the Amazon, and for life on Earth 🇧🇷🌳🌎 www.theguardian.com/world/2026/o...

As a family doctor, my vote goes to OLIVIA CHOW She supports PROVEN policies: ✅NON-POLICE interventions for addictions ✅Supportive housing ✅Safe consumption sites BRAD BRADFORD supports MANDATORY treatment ...which is proven NOT to WORK Please SHARE www.cp24.com/local/toront...

he didn't do it last term, and he won't be able to next term. It's time for change. This Monday, I need YOUR vote to bring change to Scarborough Southwest. Join me: KevinR.ca/Data #Ward20 #TOPoli

I will always vote for the person who actually likes the city they want to lead - not someone who thinks it’s a shithole.

The other implication of his run -- that Toronto has slid into flith and chaos because we don't have a white man at the helm -- is the vilest dog-whistling shit, especially since Chow is still working to clean up the mess John Tory and the Fords left behind.

Crime is down. Toronto is objectively a safe place. Why does Bradford want us scared? www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

I am on the record as shadow party supporter and actual political party wanter but endorsing Tate is a red line for me and now I want this group to collapse into dust as soon as possible. abctoronto.org/2026/10/19/a...

#topoli, take heed: Brad Bradford’s own constituents in his home ward can’t stand him after years of his neglect. Whyever would we elect him Mayor? 🤷🏼🙄🤷🏼 www.thestar.com/news/gta/why...

In the last 3 years, Bradford has stood in the way of making Toronto a more affordable and liveable city. Please look at his voting record, and vote accordingly on Monday.

During lockdown.

Scarborough Southwest is a toss-up, and we cannot win without YOU. Join us on Friday or Saturday: www.KevinR.ca/FinalPush This is a two-way race that may come down to only 100 votes. We need YOUR help to drop flyers or make phone calls (from home or our office).

Unbelievably gross that Chen is just parachuting down from the federal level because he doesn't want the commute to Ottawa, and is on track to steal the seat of the best councillor in the city

Hey #Toronto do you feel seen? Thankfully #Ford staffers can continue to speed! And drivers can continue to #carintobuilding! True leadershiop in #NYC, not the incredible levels of #roadviolence enabled by @Fordnation

had to make this meme with my bare hands Preemptive note: yes I know that is exactly how it works you don't have to tell me #bikeTO #BikeTooter #TOpoli #toronto

Bike lanes save lives. Solidarity with #Toronto from Aotearoa. #BikeTO @tomflood.bsky.social

Heated Rivalry cost $3 million per episode, about $18 million in total. It was the biggest show on TV last year. This whole endeavour will cost around 3+ Heated Rivalries. But instead, Doug is cutting funding to everything else, including universities, to fund roads being torn up.

No worries Linda. I agree with your basic point, that Bradford would be a terrible mayor for Toronto.

At a certain point we need to pause and ask ourselves what our real priorities are. #OntEd

This is the company that will supposedly be leasing the new data centre in Cape Breton, providing many of the “jobs” that were promised. I’m sure they won’t cut corners, miss lease payments, or back out of any of those non binding promises they’ve made to the province.

Rob fixed potholes. He coached high school football games when he should have been at city council and was MIA/incapacitated whenever there was an emergency. He was way out of his depth, forced into the job by his insane family.

Given there's one week left and housing has not been a prominent municipal election issue so far (to my chagrin), I think I'll highlight the @moreneighboursto.bsky.social municipal election platform. www.moreneighbours.ca/platforms-po...

I'm voting to re-elect Olivia Chow Mayor of Toronto. She's delivered real improvements for our city and our lives, despite Doug Ford's deliberate sabotage. She'll keep delivering in a second term. And you know, I'd like there to be ONE level of government that cares if we live or die? #TOPoli

My @thestar.com column: One reason this mayoral election hasn’t seen many big ideas? Blame Doug Ford, and his constant interference in Toronto issues There is one big idea that could change all of this, though. We should be talking about making Toronto a Charter City www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

This is the way. Toronto hates Doug Ford. Olivia Chow wants to be Mayor of Toronto. Olivia should clearly end her campaign on a message of supporting Toronto as a charter city. www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

The fun part is, if they go ahead with slashing all government support and benefits for new immigrants, most people will just move elsewhere and a lot will probably leave Their economy is going to completely shit the bed while the rest of the country leaves them behind

Could not ask for a more astroturfed nazi adjacent movement than the Alberta separation one. Funded by American interests and fueled by bigots while completely ignoring Indigenous sovereignty

On CBC News Network just now, @markusoff.bsky.social notes Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is MIA tonight: “Where in this you might ask is Danielle Smith? … the premier has no public plans, there’s no camera. We don’t really know where she is”

If Carney's going down this road of constitutional change to appease the cranks in Alberta, I want cities out from under the thumb of the provinces on the table. www.thestar.com/politics/fed...

📣 Dear #UCP, The vote today in #Alberta? What a massive, massive, massive waste of resources and taxpayers' money. What a hate-mongering debacle. What a lie-infused polarizing clusterf*ck. Shame. On. You. 😡

32 deaths in 20-years before bike lanes. 1 death since 2020 after bike lanes. Removing these lanes will kill people. #bikeTO #VisionZero #OnPoli

“The French never rioted or burned things down before!” (I mean, if anything, this shows that immigrants have assimilated to French history and culture).

Wants to be mayor of Toronto but does not respond to a survey about priorities for transit?

What is an effective mayor when that position is one without effective power, when the provincial and federal government hold all the levers? Chow, and Canada’s other mayors, are always advocates, rarely decision-makers. thelocal.to/olivia-chow-...

Car drivers don't own the street, and home owners don't own the neighbourhood. Cities are for everyone. NIMBYs fuck off, forever.
