Personally don’t think Ebola prevention is a “whoopsy daisy” kinda thing.

Everyone’s going to (rightly) attribute this to Trump and tariffs but I feel that maybe overlooks that Canadians were never all that enamoured with Poilievre - just intensely ready for change.

It also harms the US economy. This shit is grinding businesses to a halt. Thousands of staff dropping everything to prepare for ghost tariffs does no favours for the US. Businesses. Need. Certainty.

The City of Toronto included affordable housing provisions in its approval of certain Employment Land conversions. The Ford government changed the wording to make the affordable housing optional, then dissolved the legislature the next day with the election call. www.thestar.com/news/gta/5-0...

Smh they start clearing the snow now that's a melted slush that won't even spray in the truck 😭😭

Anti-road safety & anti-cyclist MPP Christine Hogarth is on the ropes. Mobilize your friends, family, reach out to contacts in her riding. Encourage them to vote @voteleefairclough endorsed by @notoneseat Lee: www.leefairclough.ca voter info: voterinformationservice.elections.on.ca/en/electoral...

The #1 least helpful response from Americans on the 51st state stuff is to tell us that we can ignore it because it’s a “distraction” from the “real issues” of internal US politics. This is a continued threat to our sovereignty paired with devastating tariffs scheduled for *next week*.

Yeah, who signed this thing?

Genuinely think this is kinda game over for DOGE

Tepid Take: The Ontario Green Party is excellent and has the best leader by far, but not forcefully supporting nuclear energy in ONTARIO signals to me that you are not a serious party and you’re not ready for primetime.

This is the three glasses meme but for single guys

Oh she’s GONE gone.

Ontario has a provincial election on Feb 27. I'm not gonna tell you who to vote for. I am gonna tell you that voter turnout last election was 44%, which is pathetic. Advanced voting is today, tomorrow, and Saturday. www.elections.on.ca/en.html

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau chimed in online after Canada beat the United States in the 4 Nations Face-Off final. 🔗 www.nytimes.com/athletic/liv...

OURS. OURS OURS OURS.

He would have been booed at the Bell Centre.

Best Jersey ever. #Canpoli #Canada #Hockey

Okay NVM I do not want to grow the game. I want them to lose so bad a whole generation of Americans learn to hate hockey.

Love that all the newcomers to the game are being introduced to the time-honoured NHL tradition of not dropping the puck until 28 minutes after they’re supposed to.

Great video! The City of Toronto continues apace on its goal of being home to only age 60+ home owners! Low property taxes ftw! youtu.be/t_BpzEXMYJw?...

THE STREETCARS HAVE REDUCED SPEED ZONES NOW TOO?? stevemunro.ca/2025/02/17/s...

How bad must Mac McClung’s fundamentals be?

I’m not sure why these are being considered mutually exclusive in messaging. “Trump breaking the law won’t help you put food on the table” seems effective.

“The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my fucking firing. I make $50k a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer.”

Honestly embarrassing that people line up for any pizza place south of College. You don’t even understand what’s going on above you. I know. I was one of you.

I know people love to talk about the quality of new builds, but I live in an extremely old build and let me tell you: quality ain’t friggin’ great in this shit right now.

Pleasant game at the Raptors. To be clear, I never agreed that they would not be signing me as their starting Center.

The explanation for the vibecession is that we exist in a media environment where some centrist hedge-funder can write an article using terrible homebrew statistics to argue the economy is secretly bad and then both the far right and far left go viral sharing it. That's it. That's how it happened.

Everything about this is so perfect. The jerseys are beautiful. The ceremony was excellent. The Bell Centre is the Bell Centre. I get to cheer for McDavid. Unreal.

Can’t Blame Brett for that one…

Can’t escape @philmarfisi.bsky.social’s spicy hot takes.

The craziest thing about the backlash toward the Century Initiative is that hitting 100 million Canadians by 2100 isn’t even all that ambitious.

If you're ostensibly on the left and you are uncritically citing an op-ed from a venture capitalist published in the outlet owned by the nazi-adjacent German who told his employees to pray for Donald Trump, you might be a bigger mark than the average MAGA voter

I truly think that Canadian voters should take a zero tolerance approach to any current provincial/territorial govt — politicians & bureaucrats both — who don’t follow-through on the massive public demand for removing trade barriers between provinces, & getting it done FAST. No excuses. #TeamCanada

Hey, married people, could you share some advice on wedding planning you wish you knew beforehand? Asking for a bank account.

MAJOR BREAKING: Pope Francis has written a letter to US Bishops saying he’s following “major crisis” of “mass deportations;” takes on Vance saying “The true ordo amoris that must be promoted is that which we discover by meditating constantly on the parable of the “Good Samaritan”

Trump: "I would own this [Gaza]." Brett Baeir: "Would the Palestinians have a right to return [to Gaza]?" Trump: "No, they wouldn't." Trump plans on committing multiple, and unprecedented, war crimes.

“Fuck you I won’t do what you tell me”

It’s incredible to see this idea become a reality.

If this were Putin talking about Latvia, or Xi talking about Vietnam, there would be statements of condemnation from international organizations… at this point, the silence is more than awkward…

My top Super Bowl memory is when Musk tweeted “Go Eagles” in 2023 from the game and then deleted it after a similar tweet from Biden got more engagement. Then he flew to Twitter HQ and demanded his workers find out why his posts were doing poorly, starting a multi-day fact finding mission.

University Ave., weekday afternoon traffic moving smoothly for drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians. Enjoy this safety and order while it lasts. #CompleteStreets #BikeTO #WalkTO #TOpoli #ONpoli

IT PASSED!! This is officially the new map of all roads in Toronto that will be upzoned to mid rise upon the activation of the avenues policy!!!

This City had a brief, fleeting moment where our leaders started kind of taking housing seriously, and last year we finally saw that work start to bear fruit. Based on what we’re seeing from Council lately, that urgency is gone. The NIMBYism is creeping back.
