@1Weathercanada @WxSkyWatcher83 @ECCCWeatherON @weathernetwork I have been stuck in this for 2.5 hours not moving at all

@WxSkyWatcher83 @ECCCWeatherON @weathernetwork Big stretch of the 401 shut down just south of the city. The 2nd image is highway 7/8 not the 401 though but should be comparable conditions.

The worldwide extreme poverty rate has fallen below 10% for the first time, according to the @WorldBank 👍 blogs.worldbank.org/en/opendata/ju…

Our kids deserve safe places to learn. Too many schools across Ontario are badly in need of repair. This heatwave we are in reminds us of how many schools still don’t have air conditioning. It’s hard to learn when there is no relief from extreme heat. @fordnation?

Ontario has proposed dramatic revisions to civil lawsuit procedure, to be implemented at a breakneck pace. Visit our new blog at civiljusticewatch.ca to learn more, and keep up with the latest developments.

With the incomparable Charlotte Rouse… heading out to canvass for John F Campbell your Ontario liberal candidate in Etobicoke Centre. Doug Ford is on the ropes after a shaky debate performance yesterday… let’s finish the job and make change!!

Is it a coincidence that this unnecessary #onpoli election has been called at a time when icy streets and short days make canvassing much harder?? Punish the arrogance, vote @jfcampbellTO and @BonnieCrombie !

Jerry-rigged? Saying that the new federal riding boundaries were chosen quickly or carelessly is completely contrary to the process followed by the independent commissions in each province. This kind of Trump-like remark from Premier Ford erodes trust in government, and hurts its ability to organize us to tackle the crises we face. If he meant 'gerrymandered', that's even worse. #onpoli

I understand and support the message that we must be more welcoming. But is it really accurate or helpful to state that “Torontonians… don’t welcome her hijab?” On a poster with the City of Toronto official logo?

I am frustrated by Premier Ford's comment about OSC's location. Cultural investments must be shared across our city, not just concentrated downtown. Keeping the OSC at an easily accessible location is a vital part of building a healthy and livable city. #TOpoli

So the Ford government is raising speed limits on 400-series highways : news.ontario.ca/en/release/100… But speed kills! Driving 10 kph faster doubles risk of crashing, and dying: tirf.ca/blog/is-faster… Whether it's alcohol, gambling, or speeding, they just don't care about victims.

“Dependence on others or incapacity in some or all areas of decision making does not eliminate the right to be heard,” the Ontario Court of Appeal ruled last week. Dependent adult children with disabilities have a say in their care, court rules canadianaffairs.news/2024/07/09/dep…
