This is outrageous, Doug Ford rips out Ontario’s speed cameras and then uses taxpayers money to run ads about nonexistent police, useless signs and speed bumps. He takes from us and then rubs it in our face.

Canada isn’t really reacting to Trump's Greenland grab.
The U.S. is actively eroding international norms that have held the global order since WWII.

If I was a billionaire, I'd nuke all my social media profiles and hire someone to do all my public-facing comms. IMO, the only reason to be in the public eye as a wealthy person is if you're acting in the interest of the public good.

SERIOUSLY, WATCH THIS: If you really want to understand how huge SUVs and pick-up trucks have ended up being MOST of the vehicles out there in our cities, and the absolutely INSANE consequences of that, watch this easy-to-watch video by #NotJustBikes. Then please share it as much as you can.
