@Urban_Toronto instead of self storage how about artist studios, an OCAD satellite campus and a downtown MOCA?.. digital screens on the exterior displaying rotating curated artworks?

Plans have been filed for 2 Bloor Street East that would introduce a new use within the podium of the Hudson’s Bay Centre, bringing self-storage to one of Toronto’s busiest intersections, repurposing the largest vacant site at Yonge & Bloor. urbantoronto.ca/news/2026/04/s…

This video explores how the design team working on Ookwemin Minising is taking a people-first approach to street design, imagining how a little quirkiness can introduce moments of discovery and joy into the daily commute. Ultimately, this makes for a better neighbourhood. About the project: We’re working on the fundamentals needed to develop new housing on this new island created through flood protection, called Ookwemin Minising. Design for the public spaces, streets, stormwater and sanitary pipes, and utility ducts that support the building of new homes started in summer 2025. Our international design team is integrating design for streets and public spaces with a review of the density and built form on the island. About the design team: Led by a partnership of global professional services company GHD and global design studio SLA, the team includes Allies and Morrison (Architecture and Urban Design firm), Trophic Design (an Indigenous-owned landscape architecture firm), Transsolar (an international climate engineering firm), accessible design consultants Level Playing Field, with community outreach and public engagement led by Monumental Projects. ➡️Learn more about the project: bit.ly/40jmsc6 ➡️A detailed transcript of this video is available here: bit.ly/4siCEXv

Today marks the 45th anniversary of the Toronto bathhouse raids.. @MargaretAtwood spoke out against the 1981 raids - where police arrested nearly 300 men - and joined other activists in condemning the violation of civil liberties in Canada. #LGBTQhistory ✊🏳️‍🌈🛁

Trump: "The Golden Dome is going to be defending Canada. Canada gets a lot of freebies from us, by the way. They should be grateful but they're not. I watched your prime minister yesterday. He wasn't so grateful. But they should be grateful to us. Canada. Canada lives because of the United States. Remember that, Mark, next time you make your statements."

For anyone who would like to hear Mark Carney’s outstanding Davos speech in full here it is. This is what true global leadership looks like. Canada should be immensely proud today, because they are leading the fight back when others dare not. 🎥 TikTok - vm.tiktok.com/ZNRBDT4mB/

@michaelalstad @_CreateTO Oh I understand marxism and the implications of a Marxist state, a co-op is more of a Marxist experiment ,you should live in Cuba to get the full co-op experience. Condominium chicken coups are supported by marxists like Olivia Chow

@GSawision @_CreateTO what a naive and ignorant statement..do you even know what Marxism is?! I live in a coop and it’s far more liveable and communal than living in an investor driven shoebox condo!

@blogTO it's unfortunate they have to move from the village but all the fundraised $$$ shouldn't go to greedy landlords charging outrageous rents. a video by @queerstoryapp on the history of Glad Day when it was run out of a shed in Kensington Market: queerstory.ca/project/the-in…

30 years ago, the Symbiosis Collective transformed a defunct liposuction clinic into a provocative art space. Their site-specific show, The Clinic (1995), dissected beauty, trauma, and body politics from inside the system. What has changed in three decades? 🔗⬇️

@jk_rowling D) they have more pressing matters - i.e. relieving themselves - than challenging trans people in a woman's washroom. 🚽🧻💩

Do women fail to challenge trans-identified man Robin Moira White (left) when he enters female only spaces because: A) they think he's a fellow woman? B) they know he's a man but consider him harmless? or C) they know what can happen to women who say 'no' to large, entitled men?

@michaelalstad Comparing it to the original here. You're right, it still needs a bit of tweaking on the left eye there, but based on the amount of information available, it makes sense. If you have a slightly higher res version of it, we'd be happy to rerun it for you. Let us know!
