Broadly agree. Think they can put up a fight in Rosemont with the right candidate.

Forget about the neighbourhoods we'd be losing everything on the islands.

Alberta certainly didn't and look where that got them.

The Toronto Police Association has come out against this, FWIW.

I think this is harsh on Chow. She's running a city that the Premier has a hyper-fixation on with very few cards in her deck to play against that fixation. I think she's been shrewd in attaining some items in exchange for letting Ford do as he pleases which is better than getting nothing in...

Confirmed: Boulerice leaving NDP for Solidaire run provincially: https://www.journaldemontreal.com/2026/04/24/alexandre-boulerice-passe-a-qs Boulerice has been the MP for Rosemont--La-Petite Patrie since 2011.

I wasn't suggesting this, but I can't physically build a shelter or mental health support facility for someone every time I see them on the street. I think we should be voting for politicians who prioritize their care and rehabilitation rather than vote for politicians who want to incriminate...

Vancouver is approaching the MLB backwards - municipality pushing the idea and looking for investors. Sports franchises in these leagues only happen when their bids are funded by big backers (who aren't looking to skirt league rules like Balsille did).

I'm under the impression that the current issue wrt Buffalo would be siphoning off a good portion of their STH base by bringing in a Hamilton team. Something like a third (or more?) of their STHs are coming from Canada. I'm sure they'd like to prevent that for as long as they can, especially...

UP trains were allowed to depart from Union despite this problem existing and knowing they likely couldn't complete their trips?

These unofficially exist for inter-city trips (Toronto-Montreal, for example) but I'm not aware of any serious ones in Toronto. There are also apps that help connect people driving from city to city.

I get the impression most people's POVs are formed by the idea of the latter happening despite only the former ever happening to them specifically. A good general rule of thumb in any city is to mind your business. If I see a person sleeping on the subway my first initial thought isn't "wow they...

Didn't Saxe try to squash parts of the RapidTO bus lanes on Bathurst?

It's an AHL team. There's no need to overthink anything here.
