Poilievre’s ‘DEI for Francophones’ pledge goes so deep that soon only French speakers will get to enjoy a public broadcaster. If you’re English—even in Quebec—you’re out of luck. Your ‘equity-deserving’ status doesn’t count. emmettmacfarlane.substack.com/p/pierre-poi...

It’s time to relaunch Radio Canada International—with a fresh identity. "RCI" is tied to Rogers, and "Radio Canada" suggests French-only. A new name—one that reflects a modern, multilingual, globally connected Canada. "Transmissions Canada," perhaps www.hilltimes.com/story/2025/0...

#Metrolinx keeps making a mess of its own nomenclature—now we’ll have Donlands, Don Mills, and Don Valley. Realistically, Don Mills should become Fairview, and Science Centre should take Don Mills, but the province likely didn’t want the hassle of renaming 2 stations. www.thestar.com/news/gta/met...

St. Patrick stood out, but every #TTC station has missing tiles and panels, usually due to ongoing work. I get that maintenance isn’t always done linearly, but it needs to be done better. When every station looks even a bit neglected, it drags the whole brand down. www.thestar.com/opinion/star...

Closing out this month’s Liminal Assembly walk with a final series of shots from a quiet Sunday in the PATH. Despite its eerie, in-between feel, this vast and mostly underground network is home to 1,200 restaurants, shops, and services—generating $1.7 billion in annual sales. #LiminalAssembly (3/3)

I suppose this is ultimately replacing the Shoppers Drug Mart at Queen and Parliament, which closed not too long ago. There were rumours that the closure was largely due to shoplifting and other security concerns. urbantoronto.ca/news/2025/03...

Baiting the facts as usual, @BlogTO. For the benefit of others, the Ontario Line has never and will never go through Jimmie Simpson Park. It runs beside the park, not through it. But why let accuracy get in the way of a few more clicks? www.blogto.com/city/2025/03... #Metrolinx

It's remarkable that someone who has likely never even engaged with a public broadcaster—relying solely on secondhand accounts—holds such influence over the future of public broadcasting in a major Western democracy. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/25/b...

One of its biggest flaws is the surface lot behind the Leg—provincial land. An underwhelming use of space for a capital. Parking could go underground (even with Line1), creating a more welcoming space. The Legislature feels cut off from the park—it shouldn’t. www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/toron...

Aura’s basement feels like it’s just waiting to become an IKEA expansion. Honestly, I can’t help but wonder if the whole space would have worked better with the smaller retail stalls on the main floor and the big-box stores spread across the upper and lower levels. www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

As I just said on radio what is most alarming about Danielle Smith tape is not the attempted collusion with a foreign government to interfere in our election it's that she said Poilievre is "in sync" with "new direction" in America which is a brutal autocracy with a crashing economy 🇨🇦 #CanadaSky

Toronto’s PATH began with TD Centre’s Wellington Way, a masterclass in Mies van der Rohe’s modernist vision. Whether bustling or still, it feels distinct—proof that Mies didn’t just design buildings; he created place. (2/2) #LiminalAssembly

3 straightforward changes to U.S.-Canada border that make sense: Campobello Island from NB to ME, Point Roberts from WA to BC, and the Northwest Angle from MN to MB.

Looking at that picture shows me that losing parking isn’t the real issue. Sure, it might take some adjustment, but look at that 'stroad'—it’s uninviting, inhuman, and places shoppers right next to fast-moving traffic. Why would anyone want to spend time there? www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

The now underwhelming design, in my view, stems from @cadillacfairview.bsky.social's decision to demolish Unilever. They’ve paved the way for a generic vertical business park—one to visit out of necessity than desire. It’s a lowering of the bar to almost nothing. www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

A CSA decision, not CBC’s, but it feels like a misstep, especially with Canadian pride at its peak. Moving the Awards off broadcast and onto streaming doesn’t feel right now. NHL playoffs might have factored in, but it still seems wrong. www.theglobeandmail.com/arts/film/ar... #CSA
