If you're going to close down major streets for public events that are enjoyed by thousands of people and help make Toronto an awesome city, Sunday mornings are the best time to do it. It's not like City Hall is being advantage of by car-hating event organisers -- these events are rescheduled...

More importantly, Michael Jackson's real voice was rather deep. ;-0

In the beginning, Rofo got up early too. He wanted to goto work. Anyhow, nice to see the return of press conferences.

On average they were, but yeah, looks like I'm eating some crow for breakfast today.

Tory could have put forth polices that appealed to that 22%. Oh snap.

There will be no mob, maybe some random guys doing random shit.

I think we're freaking ourselves out here. Anyhow, that's not how one deals with bullies. :) I would say to simply stay away from lotsa alcohol and to walk away from drunks.

"your" not fooling anyone.

I don't think it is necessary. I'm not voting for him, but I do think Tory will play well with others. And he will have a large amount of council lining up to work with him. And after that? The length and fate of his electoral honeymoon will depend on his personal political skills.

I am pleasantly shocked that the City is enforcing its own bylaws.

My impression of armories in general is that they are already pretty secure, and the biggest risk would be from a compromise of security from the inside. The general public is not the threat. So rather than raise the walls higher, you make them wider. And throw in some hidden moats full of...

I had a doorside chat with Joe Cressy. A few years ago, when she was running for MPP, I talked with Sarah Thomson. n

It's usually one, yeah. In most provinces and federally too, that's the norm. Oh snap, there's TWO federally, one en francais, et l'autre c'est en anglais. This spring, there was also a Northern Ontario debate, held in Thunder Bay, but Hudak declined to attend, citing scheduling conflicts and...

Re: Some Girls sticker. I enjoyed that! To live in this town, you have to be tough, tough, tough, tough....shhdoobee. North end of the Annex here. Mostly Chow, which fades to Tory once you wander into Forest Hill and Rathnally. 22 candidates for councilor, many of whom seem credible. A...

I'm a regular, daily, reader of this thread, but don't post much. Anyhow, absolutely. Polls shape media coverage, increase the number of horse race stories and influence voter behavior, especially when it comes to strategic voting. I think we're being played. The good news is that numerous...

It's not harassment. They are licensed, legit, canvassers. And mostly they are just young, idealistic and chatty kids. Canvassing works, because most people will not give to charity unless they are asked to give to charity. And those charities listed above do very important work. I am...

Among people who still read papers (not just/only websites) Saturday is a paper they sit down and ... read.

Heh. Margaret Wente (G&M) is another professional troll, but in person, people have told me she is quite charming! SAL's twitter feed is pretty batshit, if you ever feel like soiling yourself. I think that gives some indication of her character: she likes to fight.

I think SAL is just a contrarian. In internet terms, she's a troll. As you all know, a bunch of people simply get off on pushing buttons and she's one of them.

Also cut Yorkville loose. That village should run its own affairs.
