    Premier Doug Ford's Ontario

    Where to begin...maybe with the assertion that BO’s standard of living couldn’t have been affected by Ford’s very modest - let slip the dogs of war here - cuts. We might remember that Kathleen Wynne’s economic program was anchored by a truly spectacular increase in the provincial debt, which...

    PM Justin Trudeau's Canada

    Bu But on the plus side, Junior didn’t dress up in colourful traditional Japanese - or, uh...Chinese - costume. So that’s something.

    PM Justin Trudeau's Canada

    I don’t know, complaining about their NATO allies’ general failure to spend 2% of GDP on defence seems to have been a bipartisan constant for a long time. Though perhaps Trump is complaining more assertively.

    PM Justin Trudeau's Canada

    Presumably, we’re aiming to spend the smallest amount consistent with: 1. Pretending that Canada has a capable military that is a material contributor to our security; and 2. Not provoking the Americans to completely lose patience with our free-riding.

    Toronto Pearson International Airport

    Absolutely. It’s almost as bad as the AC area in the old LAG A concourse.

    Toronto Pearson International Airport

    I had a remarkable experience at T1returning from Boston on Sunday. There was no line up at immigration, and our checked bag was on the carousel when we got there. There was a line of cars waiting for passengers. There wasn’t even any traffic on the Gardiner on the way home. I honestly don’t...

    Oh, he’s going to London. Lucky sod.

    Toronto Pearson International Airport

    Be prepared for a wait of up to an hour for checked baggage. If you’re going downtown UPX is a viable option, especially in rush hour. Don’t expect much in the way of dining options in T3 on your return flight. Next week’s forecast isn’t supposed to be hellish, but in general never underestimate...

    Toronto Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s

    That’s a good point. The original Spadina subway alignment and Scarborough RT were ordered by the province under Davis. Harris chose to support the Sheppard subway while filling in tunnelling that had been started for an Eglinton subway. And Sorbara rewarded his Vaughan pals with the Spadina...

    Shabby Public Realm

    I just had the misfortune to drive down Rosedale Valley Road from Park to the Bayview Extension. I’ve never seen such an expanse of uncollected garbage - along both sides of the road its entire length. Given the number of homeless encampments along the way, it’s reasonable to assume most of...

    PM Justin Trudeau's Canada

    I think the Liberal version of the plot is that they can change the channel from SNC to the idea that they’re saving us from the climate apocalypse and descent into alt-right fascism that will happen - they imply - if we elect the Conservatives. Of course, putting SNC back on the front page by...

    Toronto The HUB | 258.46m | 59s | Oxford Properties | Rogers Stirk Harbour

    The new version looks stubby compared to the original. Just once I wish this town would go for serious, exuberant height.

    PM Justin Trudeau's Canada

    I really have to commend Videodrome - or the programmers who created him - for his ability to insert the ludicrous assertion that Scheer = alt-right into every single post, no matter how tangential it is to the subject at hand.

    2019 Ontario Liberal Leadership Race / Rebuild

    I dont know...are they electable if they’re more or less indistinguishable from the NDP? They certainly weren’t in the last election. And do they have any credibility at all if they try to row back to the centre under a new leader?

    2019 Ontario Liberal Leadership Race / Rebuild

    I’m not sure I understand the point of rebuilding the Ontario Liberal Party. They decided to go hard left under Wynne and were slaughtered in the election. We already have a more credible left party, so why resurrect another? I get that if you’re a party insider it’s entirely about who’s in...
