Fishy. This motion snuck in to council tonight and the Mayor, as it turns out, had already been at a press conference earlier in the day.
Thankyou Councillors Perks and Myers for raising legitimate concerns.

@davidwcochrane.bsky.social too often panelists on Power & Politics dismiss Canadians concern & knowledge on issues. Case in point today-climate crisis. #toronto city council spent hours on 3 climate reports this week. #heat #shelter #water #coolingcentres #indoorheatbylaw…..

@toronto.ca in the early years of the #homelessness disaster the poor quality of shelter can be excused but today this practice continuing is a big fail. @mayoroliviachow.ca

This is not just an Albertan issue.

We all need to pay attention - and act.
Alberta’s move to two tier care will spread. Bill 11 affects your waits and your costs. Tell Ottawa to act now. Sign the petition and send a letter at: notwotier.ca/canadahealth...
URGENT: Stop Two Tier Care. Prime Minister Mark Carney Must Act Now.
We have to defend and promote Universal Public Healthcare before it's too late.

If Poilievre were doing this, folks would rightly be up in arms.

Carney?

He should not get a free pass.

This is anti-democratic.

Althia Raj: Mark Carney is quietly giving sweeping new powers to his ministers
Sneaking a change of this magnitude into a 600-page bill that will not get parliamentary scrutiny raises a red flag, Althia Raj writes.

When people die, it's a great occasion to celebrate their life's work.

I've been a fan of Frank Gehry since 1978, when his renovation of his own Santa Monica residence—an ordinary bungalow enveloped in plywood, corrugated metal, & chain link—put him on the map.

Let's make this Frank Gehry weekend!

December 6, 1989: 14 women were shot to death at Université de Montréal’s École Polytechnique. Thirteen others were injured. The shooter - who died by suicide - claimed he was ‘fighting feminism’.
Please take the time today to read their names.
They deserved to live.

This excerpt reminded me of what Bonnie Briggs always lamented - we have grand memorials for those who died in war but not for those who died homeless in Canada. Thus the #Toronto #Homeless Memorial, a physical one plus monthly event for 25 years. #homelessnesskills

Crisis in the City. I am sharing the media release. It's certainly good to see this style of action happening again. David Walsh was a co-founder of #Toronto Disaster Relief Committee with extensive ability to support out of the box solutions. #urban

Why aren't we doing this? @mayoroliviachow.ca

Today, #toronto 25-yr-old monthly #homelessmemorial coincides with Remembrance Day. The connection? WWII vets fought for our national housing program. PM @markcarneyforpm.bsky.social budget does not include the $$ for his housing promises.
