Toronto lands a $100M, world-class WNBA facility on what’s currently an underused parking lot, and @blogTO’s concern is… where a handful of people might park during the CNE? That’s the angle? Blog905 has a nice ring to it. #TorontoTempo www.blogto.com/real-estate-...
One particularly local highlight features McCartney flipping through The Toronto Star, where a vintage Simpson’s advertisement remains visible in the background. #AGO (3/3)
These intimate moments were captured entirely through McCartney’s own Pentax camera during the height of Beatlemania. #TheBeatles (2/3)
Running through June 7 at the Art Gallery of Ontario, "Paul McCartney Photographs 1963–64: Eyes of the Storm" provides a rare, firsthand look at The Beatles’ rise to global superstardom. #PaulMcCartney (1/3)
Calls for “more consultation” sound reasonable—but they sidestep a familiar pattern: a few loud local voices mobilize, bring a councillor onside, and the outcome is predictable—the stops stay, while the goal of faster, more reliable service keeps getting pushed aside. www.thestar.com/news/gta/the...
Keep extending the existing lines: L5 to UTSC and then The Zoo, L4 to McCowan via STC then Ellesmere to Centennial and UTSC interchange, L2 north to Markville. A multi-decade build—so protect the corridors now. In the meantime, roll out a smart BRT grid. nextmetro.substack.com/p/the-eglint... #TTC
If a provincial jet is prudent, fine. But the “man of the people” act is wearing thin. You can’t claim populist credibility while helping engineer the very conditions people are struggling through. Message received—apparently. Let’s see if it still holds in April 2030.
I usually don’t post photos from techno events—being fully in the moment is everything—but exceptions are sometimes made. #DetroitTechno (3/3)
Jeff Mills brought the 30th Anniversary “Live at the Liquid Room — Tokyo” Tour to a secret T.O. location, and it was pure technical mastery. #JeffMills (2/3)
There’s something about 1,600 people packed into a warehouse in the Old City of York on a freezing mid-March night that makes you forget the world outside. #FormatToronto (1/3)
Oh Peter Hook *is* attending, along with the rest of New Order. This'll be interesting... pitchfork.com/news/joy-div...
This was a chance to showcase a modern streetcar network: level boarding, bidirectional cars, dual-point switches, smarter stop spacing. Prove it, then scale it across the 500 network. Instead, it’s the old model, with the ROW doing the heavy lifting. #TTC nextmetro.substack.com/p/waterfront...
Three months after Ottawa removed its automatic safety cameras, the share of drivers following the speed limit plunged from 87% to 41%(!). "High-end speeding" is up 10x.
Automatic enforcement saves lives. If you remove it, people will die.
Lolz. 😂
I’m today’s @urban_toronto centrefold girl… urbantoronto.ca/news/2026/04...
It’s not every day I open up my bedroom like this—but when the duvet cover is this good, it feels like a public service. A little MBV to fade out to nightly. #MyBloodyValentine
Is this for real? King West breaks @metrolinx.bsky.social's policy of repeated names (although they've broken it prior). Chinatown isn't actually in Chinatown. Leslieville isn't actually in Leslieville. Distillery District wasn't even in contention prior. It was always supposed to be Corktown.
Your spring/summer forecast: 100% chance of great audio!

It’s in the Humber Valley in Kleinburg (part of the City of Vaughan) north of Toronto.
The massive floor-to-ceiling windows make the woods outside feel like part of the collection, perfectly connecting the art to the land that inspired it. #McMichaelCanadian (3/3)
It’s the only gallery of its kind dedicated to Canadian and Indigenous art, housing everything from iconic Group of Sevens to bold, modern First Nations and Inuit works. #McMichaelCanadian (2/3)
Set within the scenic Humber River Valley, the McMichael blends right into its 100-acre forest. #McMichaelCanadian (1/3)
Also not mentioned, but I suppose that's also the end of CTV (CFTO) Toronto's Saturday evening newscast at 11:30 p.m.
So, Global's *not* go it! That'll put SNL U.S. and SNL U.K. on the same Canadian streamer, with the U.S. version airing terrestrially too on CTV. I honestly can't remember it ever not being on Global. #SNL
