This happened in my city last week.
Since it seems like the entire world is obsessing over the potential dangers of teens riding ebikes lately, I feel like a reminder is in order: drivers are far and away the greatest threat to your kid and everyone else on the road, and always will be.

Doug Ford finally destroys one of the world’s best recovery and refill systems. Beer store commits to having a location within 10 km of the population- that’s the distance from the CN Tower to Yorkdale. Everything this man touches turns to shit.

Just in case you weren’t sure how awful Doug ford is. The courts ruled against him based on the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms because PEOPLE WILL DIE IF HE REMOVES SAFE BIKE INFRASTRUCTURE. So he’s considering ABUSING the Notwithstanding Clause just for ego and some cheap suburban votes.

The thing with a headline like "how e-bikes came to rule the road" and how they're "outraging other road users", and then the entire article is about what you or I wouldn't call "e-bikes", but "mopeds" or "motorized scooters", shows a real problem here: we can't even name the thing we're mad at

If @torontopolice spent a fraction of as much time and resources on protecting this city resource as they do ticketing cyclists in the adjacent park (for rolling stop signs and not hitting anyone causing injury) I bet we'd all look a lot less foolish now: toronto.citynews.ca/2025/07/09/p...

The NY Times has published an investigation into the Therme development at Ontario Place. It found that while the company told the province it had a proven track record of operating six spas around the world, at the time it had only ever operated one. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/16/w...
European Spa Company Therme Misrepresented Itself in an Effort to Expand Into Canada
A Times investigation shows Therme, a European firm, exaggerated its track record in securing a deal with Ontario, and government auditors found that the process had been unfair and opaque.
