Overheard:
"Soon, bored with their i-phones, i-pods and other forms of "mini me" which they see as mirrors, and not forms of surveillance -- they will udnerstand: t o remember is to betray a regime built on forgetting. Memory itself becomes a form of rebellion."

The build up in rhetoric and indeed hate against Canada, the use of economic force, the completely bogus arguments about water, borders and boundaries: these are brutal tactics intended to defeat us. Canada will stand firm against these threats, taunts, and real daily attacks on our sovereignty and well being. They are unworthy of America and they are illegal.

Advice.
Get Ford to defend his record. Push he has had 7 years to do what he is NOW promising just to get elected again.
Force him off his canned responses he cannot think on his feet.
PUSH his Trump support.
Consider a coalition.

🎭🚨 Drama class? More like actual drama. When schools are so underfunded that the ceilings literally fall on students, it’s not just unsafe—it’s unbearable for teachers and education workers trying to hold it all together. 💔
💪 Our schools shouldn’t be crumbling—literally or figuratively. Take action to save students and support education workers at FordHigh.ca.

I took a bike ride 12 KM across Toronto.
It takes me 24 minutes @ 30km/h.
This city isn't broken, it's just that @brianlilley is shouldn't be so car-dependent. YOU are the traffic Brian.
Toronto has about 5,600 km of streets
with 270.9 km of bike infrastructure or 4.82%
Toronto's traffic is a nightmare. Here's what some experts say is the biggest culprit and what the city can do about it thestar.com/news/gta/toronto… via @torontostar

To put the bike lane debate in Toronto in perspective, more people commute by bike each day in Toronto than the entire population that lives in Barrie, Ontario. Or Kingston. Or Guelph. Or Sudbury.
It's pretty rich that the Province wants to tell us how to get around our own city. If they don't like sitting in traffic when they get here, they should go fix regional transit. That is their mess - and the true culprit for congestion in the city.
Anyone who understands physics knows that cyclists are part of the solution.

Millions displaced. Huge damage in Khartoum. Very little word on this.
As the crisis in 🇸🇩#Sudan deepens, humanitarian needs soar. IOM continues to scale-up response efforts to meet the needs of crisis-affected individuals across Sudan and neighbouring countries.
