@StevensonLDN If you don't know if a Service Depot would have helped, then I feel like you don't know your job. #ldnont

“Officials said a number of health and safety concerns were found at the encampment as well as stolen property with St. Thomas Police Service Chief Marc Roskamp who said encampments can be unsafe and dangerous places.”
Would a Service Depot have helped?

@deero_s @JcolinEvans @strosow @mcalisterward1 @AnnaHopkins11 Unfortunately, Cllr VanMeerbergen seems to follow a theory of "don't arrest me for robbing one bank; look over there! that guy robbed 5!" #ldnont

This is crazy behaviour. If you know this guy, have a talk with him. This is not acceptable. #ldnont
@lpsmediaoffice I hope you are also having a talk with him.

The sniping between supporters of Chow and Matlow - both strong candidates with good ideas - is a reminder of how it would be good to have ranked ballots where candidates might want to be positive about somewhat aligned opponents to get support on second ranking.

The fact that we could end first-past-the-post tomorrow and choose not to is one of our greatest political failures.
English
@eyeonthefly Agree with the whole thread. Ultimately, almost everything is political. I sometimes say that politics is just another word for community. Can you imagine a topic being 'too community' to engage with?

@blaineschalk @jmccall54 @MikePMoffatt @JM_Metrailler @JoshMorganLDN With increased interest rates, housing starts have slowed. Why? Of course, bc they are not profitable *enough.*
Time for a local municipal corporation who's business is building housing, not profit. #ldnont #itsachoice
English
@JM_Metrailler @MikePMoffatt I think the unclear differentiation is that more housing does not, by default, result in more truly *affordable* housing - with the key being cheaper <> truly affordable.

Thank you Kate for sharing who voted how. It's hard for most #ldnont'ers to see this info usually.
Shout out to the 6 Councillors who are supporting diversity.

Thought for the day:
It's almost like railroads and banks need more regulations than drag queens.👍

@stephen_brinen @JamiesonRoberts @NeedlesOnNews @BooksYarnLogic Our experience for last 20 years does not well inform our current climate change experience and doesn't come close to equaling what we our future will be. Simply, our past climate is gone. #ldnont

@JamiesonRoberts @NeedlesOnNews @BooksYarnLogic I’ve lived here over 20 years. Have never had a winter without freeze/thaw cycles. This is not about the so called climate emergency. #ldnont

Just got a news release from the City of London. Staff is recommending the city decommission Thames Pool.
Just a really, really bad situation. I'll be asking some tough questions about it.

She describes herself as ‘a mom to a bad-ass daughter,’ but SHE’S bad-ass in her own right. I’m talking about @andreasereda, who saves lives in our community. Please, @StevensonLDN, job shadow Dr. Sereda for a day. We need her knowledge and expertise in city council.

@StevensonLDN It's a straight up terrible idea. You have already seen some replies w reasons why. There are surely two dozen more reasons why it's terrible, including it won't actually save the $ you think it will. Let's think more deeply. #ldnont
English
I’ve heard this idea floating around for #ldnont. What are your thoughts?
Rebecca Zandbergen@RebeccaZandberg
The @CityofLdnOnt does its best to clear our sidewalks. (People help too!) But in Woodstock, its all up to residents to clear their sidewalks + they can be charged a clearing fee if they don't dig themselves out first. More w/ mayor @jerryacchione at 7:10. #ldnont 1/

Doug Ford doubled the individual political donation amount during his first term in office, because "no one influences the Fords."
Charlie Pinkerton@CharliePinkerto
NEW: Premier Doug Ford this morning is acknowledging that his daughter's stag and doe had "$150" tickets. "It was a regular stag," the premier said, adding that "no one influences the Fords."

Doug Ford begging John Tory to stay, tells you all you need to know about how much better of a mayor Toronto could have.

@Nahanni_ @PatrickAllan100 Electing no-one is not a failing of ranked ballot. Some state that the less confrontational campaigning process of RB in fact does encourage more diverse voices to run.
English
@DeanShpprd @PatrickAllan100 AV may change the FPTP results in the very closest races. But it does nothing to improve representation on city council as many/most voters still elect no-one.
English
@StevensonLDN Imagine the complete gamechanger if #ldnont required virtually all commercial plazas to have a second storey for residential. Single storey commercial is a massive waste of space and infrastructure.
