720 Bathurst - A Bailout by Another Name? As reported, City Hall's purchase of 720 Bathurst Street comes after CSI faced financial strains post-pandemic with a $17.44M mortgage (renewed at 6.5% in September 2024) and was facing $5M in deferred building repairs and projected future cashflow deficits. The City of Toronto's purchase of 720 Bathurst Street removes CSI's mortgage burden, transfers building upkeep to the public, and allows consolidation at 192 Spadina Ave. - exactly the stabilization outcome CSI identified as necessary in it's 2025 offering. A financially strained civic hub has been rescued with $16M in public capital. Is this a bailout by another name?

Well done Virginia 👏👏👏👏 This is important and impacts all neighbourhoods. Every. Single. Ward. Keep public lands public!

@shoshichai @TDotResident Hi what are you going on about?

@citizensof416 @TDotResident So you both do not live downtown and want to tell us how to live? I am getting this right?

Does Therme know that their whole serene wellness resort will now be ruined by jet noise?

I think we’re getting things twisted here, do you think every Jewish person is out protesting and murdering? Including children? I’m not trying to debate a war, I’m trying to (hopefully) help you see that like the people you named for being attacked for their existence, this too is happening to Jewish people. I would not group all Asians and all minorities together as having one view of the world, and you should not do that to this group of people either.

@citizensof416 @PasternakTO You lost me at "leaving the war aside." It's a genocide, not a war. The protest you are going on about is against the genocide, so you can't "leave it aside", sorry. Muslims, Trans people, Black and Brown people, Asian people all get attacked, for real, for simply existing.

We are still waiting whether justice will be done and laws enforced regarding hateful and disgusting images and events at last week’s Bathurst and Sheppard hate fest.

@shoshichai @TDotResident I don’t see how the impact will be allowed. Maybe in the 90s / 2000s it could have worked, but now there are too many people who live around the airport, and the fumes will be incredibly toxic.

@citizensof416 @TDotResident I am thrilled - ford is taking it anything away from Olivia - the water front has gone no where and done nothing - the airport will bring and help the city - do you both own homes in the downtown - or just visit?

@corruptario @PasternakTO Leaving the war aside, you understand that Jewish people are being attacked for simply existing? Literal seniors in their homes and children at school? And that the Jewish diaspora is diverse and not all originating from Israel? And not all Israelis are Jewish? Right?

@citizensof416 @PasternakTO I don't see protests against genocide as antisemitism. If the fucks doing the gang raping and sniping children are Jewish, that is not my fucking problem. And it's not the problem of anti-genocide protesters either.

@Kelsisheren @Tablesalt13 Don’t forget that in Toronto, the guy the city hired to “facilitate” shelter development, also advocates for MAiDhouse. No conflict of interest whatsoever…

@Tablesalt13 Thank you for sharing - my Substack has this broken down too

THIS IS CRAZY 🔴 Tik toker uncovers medical journal that estimates Canada will SAVE TRILLIONS ...in medical costs.... by offering MAID to mentally ill patients in 2027.

@TDotResident Who wants the sounds of birds chirping when you can meditate to a jet accelerating?

@citizensof416 and let's ruin those parks that are already there

@TDotResident “ The show reaches over one-in-ten (approximately 10-11%) of Canadians”

This is my biggest take away. I don't know if the Rogan brand really resonates with Canadian Carney voters?

Thank God the Mayor and City Council spent our hard-earned tax money to rename Dundas Station. Everything is great now. Problems solved. Carry on!

Hegseth invoking Crusader “biblical” language to “bless” a self serving war is both wild and totally expected. I will be in my cave.

@corruptario @PasternakTO So you are against the antisemitism then?

@citizensof416 @PasternakTO I have no problem with Jewish people. I have every problem with genocide supporters.

@mario4thenorth @shoshichai Lollll

🚨 BREAKING: Canada is debating whether boiling lobsters alive is ethical. UK has already banned it. Meanwhile FENTANYL INJECTION SITES ARE GOVERNMENT FUNDED. WE HAVE REACHED PEAK STUPIDITY, we care more about crustacean feelings than human lives. 😭

CBC News just quoted Tucker Carlson this morning because he said something negative about Israel. You heard it here first; Tucker Carlson and CBC News!!🤣🤣🤣

@corruptario @PasternakTO Just to be clear: you do not like Jewish people?

@PasternakTO @citizensof416 Get fucked.

@memechaotic lol

Legendary battle.

@corruptario @PasternakTO What?

@dgrdon I messaged you!
