The private jet is up there for one of the most out of touch things he's done but comes nowhere close to many of the other scandals in the barrage we've endured.

Heads up there will be a talk and several neighbourhood tours for Doors Open Toronto May 23 & 24 at Biidaasige Park. Wasn't going to mention it because the announcement hasn't been made but just saw the site is live so it's public now anyway. The talk and tours are free but each one indicates...

I'd be concerned about something in the water if Metrolinx suddenly began offering that kind of granularity for its dates this far in the future

They mean June 2030 right? RIGHT??!

Great line to end the piece; "Toronto’s not inventing something new here, just trying to catch up to other cities in Canada and around the world."

https://globalnews.ca/news/11806020/ontario-budget-bill-bypass-committee-foi-changes/ The Ford government will fast-track its controversial changes to freedom of information laws, bypassing public hearings over its plan to shield the premier, his cabinet and their staff from scrutiny. ... Bills...

Basically 35+. Here's the breakdown from the survey on the question "If an election were held today, for whom would you cast your vote for mayor?" Everyone Decided and leaning The whole survey with questions and breakdowns is here...

Liason has polling out (1000 Torontonians, April 12 to 13) that touched on Billy Bishop expansion "Toronto is split right down the middle on bringing jets to Billy Bishop, with 49% opposed and 46% in favour. That divide isn’t random, it’s driven by geography and age. Downtown residents are...

Same, though I don’t exactly blame staff, the estimated $30m cost turning into $380m is crazy. My guess is staff were trying to make a smart bureaucratic and business decision that isn't at all a politically smart one.

The Mayor amended the item, potentially creating a free ticket option, so that when it hits council everyone can debate and decide whether they want to have; City Council direct the Executive Director, FIFA World Cup 2026, Toronto Secretariat to create a free general admission ticket category...

They're practically all collisions only involving drivers. Of those 180 collisions at Adelaide and Power, only 1 involved a cyclist, and just 1 with a pedestrian. The 178 other collisions were just cars. Up at Richmond and Power it's worse. 2014-2025 Richmond and Power: 216 collisions (214...

Strøget is incredible. There's a wonderful story about it I once heard that goes something like; When Copenhagen proposed the idea business owners were outraged, protesting "Copenhagen isn't Italy, this will not work here!" Some involved in the plan even received death threats. But the city...

Partial Line 2 closure for the weekend has been cancelled

The story got pretty funny after discovering the resident interviewed spoke in opposition at CoA where it was refused and then this piece with CityNews came out the day after TLAB approved it lol And we can laugh even more at another story involving Modcity...

Far from new but I saw a photo yesterday and was reminded to ask... does anyone know what the metal barriers/fencing on the west side of University is for, I think it starts just south of Dundas and goes past Armory St? There have been times where I'm cycling south and want to turn left onto...

I tried using it when I wrote that comment, figuring if I'm going to berate the idea in the first place I shouldn't just make assumptions, and you're completely right. It uses AI (an LLM), but it also only prompts you to provide a photo (required), a location (required), and write some...

They mostly observed push bikes but they did capture e-bikes and "other", and describe behaviour below. But I agree that conclusions can't simply be drawn from it, whether because of the proliferation like you said, or that behaviour in Montreal could be different than in Toronto. Re...
