Why is Ford forcing farm expropriations & speculator led boundary expansions? The so-called "Get it Done" bill, gets what done for whom? Sprawl means higher taxes for everyone. Sprawl means prime farmland loss. Sprawl means more traffic gridlock and emissions. #Bill162 #onpoli
A new study from the @uhmanoa by @justin_tyndall determines a leading factor in pedestrian death rates as vehicles continue to get larger: the front-end height of a vehicle. buff.ly/3HF1Q4O
To paraphrase the great Chrissie Hynde's "Ohio" lyric... Ontario farmland is being paved down the middle by a government that has no pride. #Bill185 #StopSprawl
Everything that has been done (to protect farmland) has been blown up. #Bill185 -Mark Reusser, Director of Waterloo Fed. Of Agriculture
Why in the world would you consider sacrificing farmland? THIS is the GOLDILOCK zone- Southern Ontario. Longest list of crops grown in North America except California which has to transport water to their crops. -Mark Kruesser #Bill185
Zoning changes from farmland to urban make ASTRONOMICAL profits for some speculators (not all developers) #StopSprawl #Bill185
#ONpoli "Folks, no one respects farmers more than me. They are providing Ontario with the next generation of land to be flipped by developers and then bulldozed for Amazon warehouses and battery plants."

The people united will defeat the Milton-Campbellville Quarry! Candidates and leaders @MaritStiles @BonnieCrombie and @AislinnClancyKC today reaffirmed their opposition to the quarry. Even @fordnation promised to stop it in 2020 so why is it moving forward?
We need to look really hard at this picture. A white man leering over a racialized woman in a wheelchair, removing her for wearing a symbol of her culture, while 3 young racialized girls look on & privilege looks the other way. We need to talk about this & the impacts for all

Fossil fuels were given over $7 TRILLION in subsidies last year: buff.ly/3P85KHU That's $19.2 billion per day, $799 million per hour, $13.3 million every minute. The first step in addressing the problem is to stop funding it. #ActOnClimate #climate #energy
The pragmatism of Dutch mobility policy is particularly palpable on holidays like King’s Day, where countless people pour into their urban centers for a national celebration. If a significant portion of them arrived by automobile, there would be no places left in which to party.
Election day in Milton is less than a week away and the reopening of the Reid Road reservoir in Campbellville has emerged as a key issue. @Mariasarrouh has the details. Click on the photo below to watch more. chch.com/campbellville-…
Good coverage by @CHCHNews today in Milton, Ontario. Ford made a promise 4 years ago and we are still waiting. By-election is Thursday May 2nd. Make a plan to vote. Bring 3 friends.
Great turnout in #Milton for the Keep Your Promise rally! Great to see @MaritStiles and @BonnieCrombie there! Also: @ediestrachan @GalenNHarris @kylejhutton @CFifeKW @MTaylorNDP Not there? MIA: Zeeshan Hamid & the Premier. 4 years & no promise kept on stopping quarry.

The sheer scale of redevelopment projects in London is hard to wrap your head around. This is the beautiful 42-acre Battersea Power Station redevelopment. At approx. $15 billion(!), it’s the equivalent of about 100 Hamilton waterfront redevelopments!

@PierrePoilievre Who are the “experts” you’re talking about? Why not name them?
@PierrePoilievre Always simple for you PP, you criticize but bring no solutions to the table, you look back and gloat when things go wrong. Canadians see you, you are not Prime Minister material, never will be, they can update your brill cream look but can't change you.
@PierrePoilievre What a useless politician you are!
