Pedro Pascal: “I want people to be safe and protected. I want to live on the right side of history. I am an immigrant. My parents are refugees from Chile. We fled a dictatorship and I was privileged enough to grow up in the United States after asylum in Denmark. I stand by those protections, always”

Whatever is or isn’t happening between the Ontario Ministry of Transportation/Metrolinx and OnExpress, what we do know is Metrolinx continues to operate with a ridiculous amount of secrecy. This isn’t good governance, decent management or even the most basic transparency. This is incredibly bad.

I think this is the part that’s the most scandalous. No one knows WHAT GO Expansion is promising to deliver, or how they promise to deliver it or when it’s supposed to be delivered. It’s tens of billions of dollars of taxpayer’s money with next to no accountability. It’s VERY Ontario-y.

The fact this horrific and real story of the suffering of a Black woman is being presented as a horror befalling a white woman may be the most accurate distillation of “The Handmaid’s Tale” I’ve ever seen.

Audit of Maryland autopsies uncovers at least 36 in-custody police deaths that should've been considered homicides. State officials announced their findings following a review spurred by concerns about the former state medical examiner’s testimony in death of George Floyd. apnews.com/article/davi...

GO "expansion" is an incredible example of what should be. Honestly a fairly straightforward project and Metrolinx etc. finding an incredibly convoluted and ineffective way of moving it along.

An old heritage preservation activist friend of mine would say you have to know which fights to fight for, and which to let go. Cities are not museums, if the shed is in the way of proper transit, it goes or is preserved in some other way.

The situation with Union Station and it's train shed is silly. Battery trains in the centre of a city are silly. We should probably remove the train shed. My latest, and possibly last transit post: open.substack.com/pub/nexttoro...

Is the new Liberal government saying house prices are fine, we just need more supply? Is @markcarey93.bsky.social and his new housing minister telling Canadians house prices are affordable? #CDNpoli

If this is the approach the Liberals are taking to housing, they're hooped. Building affordable housing is absolutely necessary—in part because it will help bend the cost curve for the market as a whole. globalnews.ca/news/1117941...

There are many reasons we're here in fascism, but one of the biggest is that nearly all members of the media have spent the last ten years not asking Donald Trump a follow-up question.
