Today vote Olivia Chow (#9) for mayor. In Toronto Centre vote Curran Stikuts (#108) for Councillor. So much is at stake. Affordable housing, transit, drinking water, safety, night life, parks, etc. Bring your friends and family as well! myvote.toronto.ca/home

Goes to show we can just build fast and do whatever the fuck we want if we really wanted to without years of environmental assessment, studies, and consultation. Imagine if we put the same energy into housing, high speed rail, renewable energy, etc,

I know no one gives a F about safety or the law when the province is involved - but those workers & police should be wearing PPE for this work. Did they cover the catchbasins? Did they warn residents to close windows? The city would never get away with this. www.gazzolapaving.com/files/employ...

Back to this. #BikeTO What's going to happen next? Now that we know they are going to have a police presence (at whatever cost) and that permits don't matter, they'll likely continue with daytime work instead of overnight. Easier to get police, safer, better weather.

tired: referendum on province separating from Canada wired: referendum on city separating from province

Housing advocate says we need to emulate a city with one of the most expensive housing markets in the world.

“Olivia is one of the reasons Toronto has gone down hill.” … says the profile from London 😭😭 (Comment on video of Marit Stiles endorsing Chow)

It’s an alarming trend. Bradford didn’t respond to surveys from us, Cycle Toronto, Toronto Environmental Alliance, ACORN and many others. It’s important to know where candidates stand on the most important issues facing the city. Transit. Cycling. Climate change. Housing. Who is he listening to?

I want more police but don’t want to pay for it I want better services and lower taxes Sounds like the average Bradford voter toronto.citynews.ca/2026/10/15/t...

New study shows link between cars and traffic

No, no. We've been assured it's too hilly and too snowy for Toronto to be a great cycling city. So this can't be true for the hillier and snowier Montreal.

We had decades to densify areas like Bloor West in more gentle ways and the residents always said no. It drove a housing crisis so bad that the province stepped in and required towers be allowed near transit stations. I doubt the residents will understand it that way. www.thestar.com/real-estate/...

People are so far gone lmfao “Cars are the main economic engine of the city” Motornormativity etc etc

Who’s Jane and why is she walking?

Amid the Bloor West bike lane removals, it is important to remember that right-wing “bikelash” isn’t just an Ontario thing Far-right parties in Spain, Sweden, Alberta, USA, etc. are removing/rejecting/defunding bike infrastructure as an attack urban residents and to prop up fossil fuel corporations

Family reunion 😍😍

My sign that TPS glared at all night made the news for a split second lol “Toronto Police Should Keep Torontonians Safe” (Other side says: “Bike Lanes Keep All Road Users Safe”) 3 min CTV News clip here: www.instagram.com/reel/DegHBq5...

The city is literally building an upgraded protected bike lane around Queens Park right now. But it's in the contract for removal!

It must be the darn bike lanes causing traffic Oh wait there is no bike lane here

The Toronto Police arrested Aly Van Wyck-Smart, a Paralympian with cerebral palsy who was protecting part of the bike lane from removal. On the bright side, the construction workers put the bollards back and said we'd won for the day.

Took Line 6 Finch West LRT last night as a little treat to decompress after the bike lane removal protest. Happy to share that end to end trip time was ~35 mins from Humber College to Finch West! (8:40pm - 9:15)

Permit was updated 10h ago 2 minutes each day they can't work 🫠

A cop car carrying a flashing neon sign that says "DOUG FORD HATES YOU." Perfect, no notes, thanks for the great visual @ TV writers of the universe!

G20 levels of police presence to remove a fucking bike lane. Absolute cowards. (Photo: @chanface.bsky.social)
