The fix is in.

No reason to trust city hall. This is an unfortunate thing.
public consultation results for dedicated transit lanes on bathurst+dufferin. note overwhelming support (75%+ dufferin, 67-68% bathurst) for transit priority+converting parking to transit lanes.

transportation services recommendations + councillor compromises do not reflect what people want.

The twelve aboard the Madleen Freedom Flottilla are absolutely heroes.

*And* we cannot displace our own complicity onto them.

While we follow their brave journey, let their heroism inspire *us* all to be creative, be defiant and keep finding ways and acting to break the siege and end Zionism.

The penguins are sad,
Long-term plans for fish exports,
Shattered now by Trump.

The firm Stantec has been named. Put them on the shelf with Diamond Schmitt & Urban Strategies as corporate citizens who’ll take the cash to destroy part of the city (and here put lives at risk).
Stantec is working with the Ford gov't to rip out bike lanes in Toronto, despite the injunction that prevents this work taking place until March & despite the tens of thousands of Ontarians who don't want to see their money wasted ripping out perfectly good infrastructure we paid to put in:
Shame on you, Stantec
