I've never understood this. Everyone wants less congestion, safer streets, & a nicer living environment -yet taking common sense steps to do this is regularly demeaned as "woke." What's so bad abt breathing cleaner air, having less noise & creating safe routes for your kids to walk/bike to school?

This week delivered a one-two punch to transgender youth: SCOTUS gave states the green light to ban puberty blockers and hormone therapy, and HHS announced it will shut down the LGBTQ+ Youth Specialized Services program of the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline on 7/17. It's cruelty disguised as policy.

The propaganda: “Everyone suffers from families being late to school and work, local businesses cut off from customers and seniors experiencing lower air quality from cars stuck in traffic” Clean up in all the aisles. The heads of ABCToronto are going to start exploding. #BikeTO

I’m seeing a lot of hand-wringing from people on the left who say that Carney is turning out to be a conservative. He’s definitely more centrist than the previous govt. but the pendulum was due to swing right, and I’d far rather have the LPC in charge than the CPC as it does. …2

When urbanists take pictures of a Paris street (like Rue de Rivoli) showing all the people on bikes taking advantage of protected infrastructure, it’s not just because we “like bikes.” It’s because we’re picturing the gridlock if they were driving cars. And the public cost, pollution, noise…

We lost a important member of the bicycle community and a member of our Bike Week board this past week. John Anderson loved bikes and has also been a board member of the WRENCH and a regular supporter of many Bike Winnipeg rides. He will be greatly missed. t.ly/wh0mD

I don't know who needs to hear this, but Trudeau was not Prime minister in March of 2014, when Russia and Putin got the boot from the G8. Trudeau has become the Canadian boogey man that lazy conservatives love to lean on for every hate filled jab.

Nice editorial from @winnipegfreepress.com: “Getting people to go through the registration process to present to a council committee and have them show up to be heard, only to hold a vote and temporarily cancel public input, is both insulting and counterproductive.”

🚨 Rebel News just lost its court battle for official journalism status. The judge found only 10 of 423 posts met the standard for real news. The CRA ruled most were opinion, rewrites, or activist fundraising—not journalism. The ruling makes one thing clear: propaganda isn’t journalism. #CANADA #G7

Everything in this article illustrates our shocking lack of perspective and inability to prioritize things correctly. Like human life vs parking. If I were Toronto city staff, I’d be professionally embarrassed by this change of position.

Canadians pay attention - this is EXACTLY the language they would use if they decided to proceed with annexation of our country. We are not currently the target but this should make it clear to not let our guard down. #cdnpoli #elbowsup

I really appreciate the principled approach Councillor Rollins has taken to issues I’ve been involved with and engaged with her on.

Appreciate Councillor Rollins' take: "...generally, when people take time off and the standing policy committee is there to hear, you hear them. I think it’s really important when people take time out for democracy to understand that that costs them time, it costs them money."

Gavin Newsom We will keep fighting on behalf of all our people. If some of us can be snatched off the streets without a warrant, based only on suspicion or skin color, then none of us are safe. Authoritarian regimes begin by targeting people who are least able to defend themselves.

trump attacks Canada economically again despite “good meetings,” and is already breaking the “deal” he made with the UK (the only deal he had managed to make so far). So it’s pretty clear — why should any nations bother having meetings or making deals with the trump regime?
