OMG @BradMBradford stop pretending you are the Mayor or a conservative MP! Which Tory hack is writing your speeches and leading your faux campaign? You are our CITY councillor. Do your job. Answer your email. Serve your constituents. Stop the self-promotion! #topoli

Brad can you please stop campaining for the mayor's seat! You lost. The next mayoral election isn't until 2026. Can you just do a better job at being a local Councillor-that's the office you hold. Answer your phone calls. Do your constituency work. Ward 19 residents deserve that.

This morning at Leland Industries in Scarborough, I announced my proposal of a 25% property tax cut for industry and small businesses in the 2025 city budget. This cut will provide urgent relief to nearly 3,500 manufacturers and 30,000 small businesses.

Even in this video Bradford admits he doesn’t want school meals & more library hours in the 2025 City Budget. He’s voted to increase fares before. People are cynical because politicians like Brad speak out of both sides of their mouth. That’s why we help hold them accountable 🧵
Brad Bradford@BradMBradford

I understand why people get cynical about politics, especially when you’re constantly bombarded with misinformation and lies. That’s the playbook for Progress Toronto - Mayor Chow’s radical NDP spin shop that propagates lies and misinformation in an attempt to divide and distract.

Pierre Poilievre has been in politics for 20 years, he's written 0 legislation; has one of the highest pensions in government. He's voted against the environment & climate nearly 400 times, derailed legislation to benefit workers, and voted against affordable housing initiatives.

Conservatives have plans to respond to our work, so we have to scale up in 2025. That’s why we need your help! A few generous Progress Toronto supporters are matching all #GivingTuesday donations up to $13,200. Double your impact with a matched donation: donorbox.org/progresstoront…

Because I'm Italian, despite any and all evidence to the contrary, I believe am genetically obligated to say Luigi Mangione didn't do it. I believe he was at my mom's house making sauce for dinner at the time of the shooting. Thank you. No further questions.

Here's how CNN covered Luigi Mangione's note: "This manifesto, these rantings and ravings of an individual that obviously has some aberrant thoughts in his mind and that's why he put it down on paper. So all of that is certainly very disturbing."
Ken Klippenstein@kenklippenstein

I got the Luigi Mangione manifesto — the real one, not the fake one circulating online. Here it is: kenklippenstein.com/p/luigis-manif…

Why do conservatives want to start a right-wing version of Progress Toronto? Because together we make it harder for them to win. With a small budget and many volunteers, we let voters know the truth about conservative candidates. Read The Star article ⬇️ thestar.com/news/gta/how-a…

Do you know why your property taxes go up? Because the provincial government doesn't reinvest the taxes you give them back in to you and your community for public services, including housing, health care, child care, and senior care. So, municipalities have to pick up the tab.
Marit Stiles@MaritStiles

When municipalities are forced to pick up the province’s tab, it’s people who pay the price. Something has to change:

When housing becomes an investment instead of a right - when developers market new units as a supplement to retirement income instead of access to a roof over people's heads - this is what happens. It's why we need a comprehensive non-market public housing plan now for Ontario
Toronto Star@TorontoStar

Nearly 40 per cent of condo apartments in the Toronto area were owned by investors in 2022, a new Statistics Canada report found, with smaller units seeing a higher proportion of investor ownership. trib.al/U4W9pCb
