No right turns on red, anywhere, ever
Road diets, adding protected sidewalks and bike lanes, removing passing lanes
More buses, and free buses
Build higher order transit
Bring back the speed cameras

That’s just spitballing. Come on. Solutions, people!

I’m no political strategist, but I think one of member of the Ontario NDP (and even the Liberals) should make a point every day of being ejected from the legislature for calling the Ford government corrupt.

Suburban councillor Francis suggests it requires a coliseum sponsored by a multibillion dollar bank to entice folks downtown. Guess he doesn’t witness what happens as soon you open James St to people. #HamOnt
If you're out tonight enjoying #HamOnt 's first open street #ArtCrawl of 2025, be sure to stop to appreciate that James St was once a 1 way, 4 lane street!
And that, to this day, some believe that change was regrettable.

Ceremonial is complete.

Council now approving committee work.

During the past two weeks, there were two divided votes:

A 13 to 3 vote to approve Climate Change Reserve spending

A 6 to 10 vote against a motion to reconsider Waterfront Shores agreement to build on Pier 8. #yhmcc

It is the 14th time it has closed this year.&many times it narrowly missed closing because at the last min a dr dropped their life&came to the rescue.

Ontarians,do we really want to allow our neighbours to be treated this way??

Abstenions appeared to have been:

NDP MP Gord Johns
NDP MP Lori Idlout
Conservative MP Shannon Stubbs
Conservative MP Matt Jeneroux

All other opposition MPs voted against, except for Green Party Leader Elizabeth May, who voted “yea” alongside the Liberals.
🚨 NO ELECTION 🚨

The vote barely squeaked by thanks to abstentions.

Final tally: 170 yeas, 168 nays
Could we be getting an ELECTION for Christmas?

Well, the Liberals still need one more “yes” vote to avoid that (or two abstentions), making the vote that’s taking place in two hours a real nail-biter.

Here’s where things stand right now, with a little help from @supriya.bsky.social:
