Canada is literally the only G7 country without high speed rail.
Conservatives want you to continue to pay sky high prices for gas, worsen congestion on roads and make your commute hours longer.
We've been "studying" high speed rail for 50 years - time to get it built.

Pierre Poilievre on the Toronto–Quebec City High-Speed Rail Network: "Conservatives oppose the $90b Liberal-Alto train ... a future Conservative government will cancel this $90b boondoggle altogether."

@ThomasDrance @drrckvnbrs NHL has no aesthetic taste, and looks cheaper by the year
English
Such a vital and underrated point.
We're so used to the visual pollution of how hockey is presented by the NHL that we've become somewhat immune to even noticing it.
How the Olympic hockey product looks makes it so, so much more appealing for viewers.

The best part of Olympic hockey is no digital board ads.

@bobby_halstead @DrJesseMorse If you had looked inside her knee you would have seen she has no ACL. I’m afraid that is a requirement to succeed in the sport.

@DrJesseMorse She looked great in the training run. It wasn’t her knee, but her line.

Just one week after tearing her ACL, Lindsey Vonn has completed her Olympic training run in Cortina. The women's downhill competition takes place this Sunday.

Wishing Lindsey Vonn the best of luck after today’s crash.
Yes I believe the recently torn left ACL played a role in this crash, either directly or indirectly. Likely having to do with stability and balance.
That’s a moot point now, as she very well knew the risks of skiing with the injury, but she bravely tried to continue regardless.
I hope that she did not sustain any significant injuries and we get good news soon.
🙏🏼

The AP's Jacquelyn Martin has the photo that shows the split-second before Lindsey Vonn's crash: her right ski pole clips the gate at the crest of the jump, which flung her off balance and induced the crash.

@stphnmaher very interesting conversation here with Henry Farrell. nytimes.com/2026/01/27/opi…

@sctdvy Heard it on CBC radio and also articles like this.
"[Transportation Minister Prabmeet Sarkaria] said there were some lines where trains couldn’t operate late because of track constraints on lines owned by CP or CN Rail." globalnews.ca/news/11508883/…
English
@sctdvy Interesting. Except that the rationale given for the closure or not staying open late on Saturday night / Sunday morning was that CN and CP own parts of the track and GO couldn't operate at that time. But that is interesting that GO/Metrolinx owns so much of its track now.
English
@reiaposting GO Expansion has been downgraded internally at Metrolinx to a “minimal viable service”. We’re not getting anything like true RER anytime soon.
English
montreal has almost nothing new planned after this btw (just blue line ext.) whereas Toronto has GO expansion (much larger network than REM), 2 under construction line extensions, a brand new downtown subway line (with REM tech), and plans for way more.
brayden petersen ⁂@bmptrsn
montreal opening a fully-automated metro with GO train-level reach, funded by the pension plan in like half the time it has taken toronto to build one single glorified streetcar is all you need to know about how deeply unserious toronto is about becoming a great city

Italian dockworker Romeo Pelliccaria tells @DropSiteNews that Genoa workers are now coordinating with dockworkers from around Europe for a full-scale blockade of arms shipments to Israel.
He recalls that in the 1970s, his father, also a dockworker, joined a humanitarian flotilla to Vietnam to break the U.S. blockade.

@Frayed13967990 @TattleTSister @chrisdacey Please explain how high up does this go? I want the details for a screenplay I’m writing.

HAPPENING NOW: Heartbreaking scene at Universal Ostrich Farm as RCMP and CFIA are at the ostrich enclosure fence, preparing to slaughter 400 healthy animals.
Listen to the emotion in Katie's voice as she begs them to let them finish feeding their birds.

@Frayed13967990 @TattleTSister @chrisdacey You’re the one who brought up unexplained ostrich corruption in the Canadian federal government. I’m begging conservatives to find one normal political grievance.
