48 hours ago, police arrived at our house to inform our family that my father was struck by a driver while riding his bike on the QEW. He is in critical condition. These photos are the result of someone’s negligence. I show this in the hopes that no other family EVER has to see their parent in this condition. What you don’t see, are the endless tears, and heartache by all of his friends and family. I’m trying so hard to keep myself together. 48 hours taught me more about being a man, than 28 years of my life ever could. The initial shock was unreal. My mother collapsed at the door in my arms as she heard the news. I went from feeling the daunting reality of potentially being fatherless to understanding in a split second that stepping up for my family and for my father is the only thing I can do. He’d want us to be strong as a family, and pray together for him. I’d like to extend a request for prayers to anyone reading this. My father is in the ICU fighting for his life as I write this. We want nothing more than for him to come home and be better than ever. Allah is the only one who can cure, and your prayers are so appreciated. When you are driving, PLEASE be mindful of others, especially in the summer when bikers are out. One individual’s negligence has shocked our family FOREVER. Please. Use your discretion. Double check your blind spot, and give cycles space. No one should have to go through what we are right now.

Nearly 30 years since Conrad Black launched the National Post to compete with (and potentially kick out) the Toronto Star in what were dubbed by some as the "Newspaper Wars" of the 90s, the Star is getting hoovered up by Postmedia…lnkd.in/gSEZ4Cfr lnkd.in/gV4CKxRe

How many of you know about this skate park at City hall? It’s up for an Urban Award! It was inspired by consulting with our young people. Community Safety and Wellbeing includes having safe places for people to feel like they belong. @CSWBPRP @citymississauga

@marcolongo_mike @BakerJaniceM I wasn't surprised when I heard about the Lakeview MZO; I'd heard rumblings from some key players in the months beforehand that something was going to happen. Frankly, I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner. One wonders if these two events were connected for maximum effect.

@BakerJaniceM Good question - announcement came on the heels of Lakeview MZO (certainly not endorsed by Mississauga but rewards friends of Premier, TACC) and during period of speculation that @BonnieCrombie was going to run. A miscalculated attempt at throwing a bone to ward off opposition?
