This is how Toronto's iconic live music venue made a comeback!📍 Hugh's Room - 296 Broadview Avenue

I forgot they even asked me this stuff. Good thing I said @HughsRoomLive was the best Music Venue! (@Tranzac too…)

The executive director of Hugh's Room shares his best of Toronto! Do you agree with his picks?

@TTChelps @TTC Ah well. Just poor schmoes stuck on the subway. Never mind then…

@BoothTO @TTC Hi there. As we're unable to address employee related matters through this channel, please give us a call at 416-393-3030 (option 6) to formally report this experience. You can also submit your report to us online at: ttc.ca/customer-servi… ^FR

Hey @TTC ⁦@TTChelps⁩. Can anyone explain why on a packed train at Friday rush hour the operator blocks space for 10 people? He even came out and put it back up when loose. Nothing wrong with seats. Rudely told woman to move to other side of safety barrier. Who’s safety?

Best story coming out of #TOMayor race (aside from the victory of @oliviachow) is that the top three candidates representing 80% of the vote all are #immigrants to # Canada. As it should be. Of course so was @iamdavidmiller #TOpoli

Congratulations @oliviachow ! You earned this. People overwhelmingly voted for change. And that’s a powerful mandate indeed.

Ok. While this is important for #Pride isn’t this public funds going to insurance companies and police associations as a one-time fix of provincial and municipal policy failures? Sound more like blackmail to me. #CanPoli #TOPoli #ONPoli cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

The City of Toronto has a $1 billion hole in its budget. This is enormous (and against the law). Mayor Tory has not only left the cupboards bare, he’s removed the appliances and flooded the basement. Big Q in the election: who has a real and transparent plan to address?

Listen to your staff #JohnTory. In fact why not drop the letter off at the Clerk’s desk this morning. They’ll be in the Council Chamber by 9:25 I am sure. Think of all the explaining about “rules” and “misuse of public resources” you won’t have to answer. cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

@CityNewsTO Stitch. Up.

#UPDATE: "Why am I being asked in a telephone poll whether I think John Tory has done a good job as mayor?" toronto.citynews.ca/2023/02/14/tor…

@blogTO Two words: Stitch. Up.

Toronto confused about whether or not John Tory is actually resigning as mayor bit.ly/3Yt2Bo8 #Toronto #TOpoli #TorontoMayor #JohnTory

@metromorning 2/2 and then let’s discuss honestly the “legacy” of managed decline, filthy parks, overflowing garbage bins, closed washrooms, broken fountains, cuts to transit yet more $ thrown at the police with no plan to solve social issues at core of safety worries.

@metromorning Isn’t JTs belief in his own indispensability how we got here in the first place. Since he’s “staying” explain why he broke rules by failing to disclose his relationship w/a subordinate and if he used public resources to facilitate and hide that relationship. 1/2

“I quit. But not really. I need to ram my police budget through with 1/3 of the vote first. Then I promise. Really. Sorry.” Isn’t an entitled sense of one’s own indispensability how you/we got here in the first place? #TOPoli #JohnTory cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

@CheriDiNovo Tricky if half a dozen “progressives” run against the Ford candidate.

After Tory as #Toronto Mayor we now have a chance to elect a true progressive. Guess what- they’ll also have super-Mayor power. Don’t think Ford thought of that!
