It's kind of sad when she used to be such a hard line environmentalist, but doesn't seem to make the obvious connections between housing, transit and sustainability.

Drivers barely even slow down when they hook turn on red these days. Half the time they don't even try to stop before entering the crosswalk. It's an epidemic of bad behaviour on behalf of drivers.

This is so amazing. Whereas Toronto is about to build another traffic street along the shoreline because our planning is still stuck in the 1980s. 😭

It's hard work but it's (dis)honest work.

I love everything about this outcome.

...something about living too long and becoming the villain.

But Reece! We need to balance the needs of drivers!!!

So many good ideas have died on the mantle of balance in this city.

Toronto urban designers when another row of fine grain retail gets replaced with a ground floor wall of glass and plastic window wrapping:

Toronto's housing policy is so backwards, it's infuriating.

It's so frustrating that after all the investment the track level feels... the same in most locations.

The city is THRIVING

It's such a great venue. Rain or shine, the Bentway is a go! Excited to see it evolve into the city's fabric and identity

The police seem much more lax on public drinking these days too. Can't say I mind.

A student in a class I gave a presentation to asked what the single most important thing to prioritize in planning was, and my answer was "efficiency" because everything else flows from that. Want more nature? Build efficient cities. Want more transit? Build more with less. Etc.

*residential* zoning should NOT discriminate between low and high density housing. It should only be about separating housing from pollution. Including car exhaust and micro particulates (looking directly at everyone putting apartments next to car sewers and patting their backs)

Meanwhile the sea of detached house residential zones, and the 100% vacant airspace above it, is apparently perfectly normal and fine. Totally fine that it means few poorer people can live in those zones. Status quo bias is everywhere.
