YOU’RE A CITY COUNCILLOR.
#ldnont
So many people in our core areas are feeling despair and hopelessness due to the rampant crime, violence and open drug use.
What are we doing as a city to address these very serious public safety issues? #ldnont #publicsafety
This is crazy behaviour. If you know this guy, have a talk with him. This is not acceptable. #ldnont
@lpsmediaoffice I hope you are also having a talk with him.

The sniping between supporters of Chow and Matlow - both strong candidates with good ideas - is a reminder of how it would be good to have ranked ballots where candidates might want to be positive about somewhat aligned opponents to get support on second ranking.

The fact that we could end first-past-the-post tomorrow and choose not to is one of our greatest political failures.
Thank you Kate for sharing who voted how. It's hard for most #ldnont'ers to see this info usually.
Shout out to the 6 Councillors who are supporting diversity.

Thought for the day:
It's almost like railroads and banks need more regulations than drag queens.👍

She describes herself as ‘a mom to a bad-ass daughter,’ but SHE’S bad-ass in her own right. I’m talking about @andreasereda, who saves lives in our community. Please, @StevensonLDN, job shadow Dr. Sereda for a day. We need her knowledge and expertise in city council.

Doug Ford doubled the individual political donation amount during his first term in office, because "no one influences the Fords."
Doug Ford begging John Tory to stay, tells you all you need to know about how much better of a mayor Toronto could have.
And we so very desperately need deep fundamental change for the sake of human equity, and protection of the ecological process we all depend on.

Dear Teacher,
It’s Sunday night, and I promised I’d remind you that you’re okay.
That weight-of-the-world-on-your-shoulders feeling is just your heart filling up for kids.
You’re okay. In fact, you’re pretty damn remarkable.
There’s your reminder.

Spoiler alert: It's going to be "not enough police officers."
More officers won't fix our root problems.
Some of Canada's largest police associations say they are banding together to identify the root causes behind the killings of five police officers in the past four months. trib.al/0V0YI5b
FREQUENCY IS FREEDOM.
And how does one get high frequency and on-time performance? Spoiler alert: You already know the answer; it's dedicated transit lanes. #ldnont
FREQUENCY IS FREEDOM when it comes to transformative public transit, coined by my friend @humantransit! 10 minute frequency of trains or buses achieves a critical psychological shift, where transit is there when people need it. Pic from our collaboration in Burlington, Canada.
THIS.
It's the same story of privatized profit and socialized risk and cost. Everyone knows it, except it seems the rules are being made by the people who profit.
Expecting the environment and public safety to be voluntarily protected by developers is ridiculous. The risks will just be passed to the homeowners. #RepealBill23 #wetlands
Dedicated bus lanes are THE answer for so many traffic and mobility issues. The last Council left half the city without a plan. C'mon #ldnont, there's no reason we can't have fantastic transit.
Incredible.
LOOK at the impact some local green energy production can make (plus it's good for the local economy).
“A little research makes clear that in fact if you add up all the tonnage, something very close to forty percent of all the shipping on earth is just devoted to getting oil and coal and gas (and now some wood pellets) back and forth across the ocean.” billmckibben.substack.com/p/…
Hi @EastlinkSupport I understand some email addresses are being discontinued Jan 15th, but not DCCNET addresses. How do I know if I have a DCCNET address (I don't know what that is). Thx
