Ok. You're a dissatisfied Chow supporter. I get it. Me too. But read this from @goldsbie.bsky.social In a near impossible situation to govern properly, Mayor Chow is clearly the candidate of choice right now.
Another great piece in @thelocal.to to read ahead of the election #voteTO

Hello, Canada, here’s a recipe made with our own Crosby’s Molasses and plenty of good Canadian cream. Maybe add a shot of Gooderham & Worts, Crown Royal or other Canadian whisky to the sauce. When possible, this is best served on a Spectra Aluminum wall panel.

re: "fringe group" — the vast majority of GTA residents do not, and likely never will, fly out of Billy Bishop, this was always special pleading from a narrow interest group, they just happen to be extremely wealthy
Blasting the federal government for listening to “a small fringe group in Toronto,” provincial Transportation Minister Prabmeet Sarkaria insists the Billy Bishop expansion is not dead.

Thank you @normsworld.bsky.social ♥️
This guy deserves the key to the City of Toronto, the Order of Ontario and the Order of Canada. Thank you Norm! 1000x THANK YOU!
Guess what these great cities are not doing? They’re not building airports on their prime city waterfronts. #topoli #onpoli #NoJetsTO

I cannot believe a few guys making bets on a prediction market are driving some news coverage at CNN and CNBC. It’s clearly info slop, not news. This piece by @atrupar.com & @juddlegum.bsky.social reveals how truly bad it is & how viewers are being misled. Yikes. open.substack.com/pub/aaronrup...

WATCH: Seriously, if you’re following ANY bike-lane debate, you really should watch & share this news story. It’s pretty much perfect. Ford claims wrongly that bike-lanes are bad for small business, and THE ACTUAL BUSINESS ASSOCIATION obliterates him with data. toronto.citynews.ca/video/2024/1...

This is the only US president whose Easter message merits repeating. Imagine if instead of anyone quoting that other message—yes, we all know how rude and violent and unintelligent it was, no surprise there—we all opted instead to amplify decency.
To everyone celebrating Easter, Michelle and I wish you a joyful holiday filled with reminders of the enduring power of faith and hope.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

Protesters will need to protest outside of media headquarters, this way the media that is afraid to cover the protests can’t ignore the movement. The only one covering the protests is Rachel Maddow @maddow.msnbc.com Idea came from a post that will not load, posting to pass it forward. 💙 Share
Absolutely! They’re just wonderful.
If you ever need a brain wash, I can not recommend highly enough the "Tripping the" series It is beautiful, relaxing, and interesting Come visit Canada through your screen (Very excited for the upcoming Muskoka video) This is what public broadcasting is about! www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2K2...

This is funny. And the serious problem with the NYT is it misinforms about reality. Not with inaccuracy so much as emphasis, perspective, and framing. That makes it a bad news source. Go to the Guardian, or Wired, or others/ independent sources. You don't need the NYT or LA Times, or WaPo.
Three million Americans marched today. Here’s why we wrote about one American who didn’t.

The job of capital markets is to tell you "don't worry, be happy". They don't want to trigger a crisis in confidence. But this stance is pure madness.
BMO Capital Markets on strong jobs data and Trump's destructive trade war: "If anything, this will galvanize Trump's negotiating stance and leave the Fed without much room to be dovish -- after all, the hard data continues to perform well."

I mean it. If anything he's done so far has been unimaginable to you, toss out the unimaginable. Holding onto power past 2028. An invasion of Canada. World War III. Another Holocaust. All have shifted from 'unimaginable' to 'possible' in our new reality. We fail to prepare at our peril. 2/2
