Trump said he is considering a financial bailout for the UAE, an autocratic state experiencing an economic downturn due to the war in Iran. If the Trump administration does rescue the UAE, it will be assisting a country that has partnered extensively with the Trump Organization and the Trump family.

We can't have heathcare, education, or OSAP, but we can have a gravy plane, billion dollar destructive changes to the Toronto Island airport to accommodate the gravy plane, a private spa, a tunnel under the 401, etc. Ford is a thief.

Shawn Micallef: Toronto’s main drag is a real drag. So why is the Yonge Street redesign taking the slow road? The sluggish pace of the transformation Toronto’s most famous street is in sharp contrast to how quickly Church Street is set to become pedestrianized.

Per the latest column from @shawnmicallef.bsky.social about the latest disappointing yongeTOmorrow proposal, "If Toronto can’t pull off a proper pedestrianization on Yonge, it shames itself in front of peer cities." Couldn't agree more! #BikeTO #WalkTO #TOpoli www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

So, just to keep score: Doug Ford announces (something he can’t just do) that jets will fly from Toronto Island airport which would destroy the waterfront we’ve been building for a generation… then buys on taxpayer’s money a $30million private jet. Bonus: another $900million cut to public education.

I’m not convinced about the Eglinton East/Scarborough East Rapid Transit/LRT. I honestly think a larger network of curb and median BRT on Eglinton Esst, Ellesmere, Morningside, Sheppard East, and Markham would do more and am not convinced LRT will offer a meaningful improvement over buses in TO.

Honoured to have engaged w over 200 ebiking gig workers over the past 3 days. Our safe cycling sessions are a model for what the City of Toronto, Uber etc. could do to ensure everyone on our roads is a little more safe.

Quelle surprise!
When Toronto's Coxwell camera was in place, I noticed it was exceedingly rare to see vehicles break 50 km/h in the 40 km/h zone (I could tell because of a conveniently placed 'Your Speed' sign). When the camera was removed 50+ became quite common and 65+ was suddenly not unusual.
