Conservatives: Build more homes faster! Also Conservatives: But not where I live. Maybe @Randall_Denley should talk to Randall Denley.
While I can see the attraction of having one’s suburban lifestyle subsidized by the urban parts of the city, as well as blaming immigrants for the housing crisis, something feels a bit off with this… 🤔 /s ottawacitizen.com/opinion/column…
It’s unimportant to me whether this is true—but if it is, good on Toronto: every city should seek to be livable. If tourists like it too, fine. But catering to tourists seems a surefire way to make sure it’s interesting to neither them nor the people that live there.

Uh, this is pretty disturbing? “We will make [my proposals] constitutional using whatever tools the constitution allows me to use to make them constitutional. I think you know exactly what I mean.” cbc.ca/news/politics/…
Kyler Shinkle-Stolar was sentenced to 20 hours community service in the first of several hearings for more than 200 protesters from local colleges. “He's an organizer... him doing 20 hours of community service is him living his life," his attorney said. wgbh.org/news/local/202…

Canada will put Viola Desmond on the $10 bill for refusing to move her seat, but then people don’t want to support @SarahJama_ when she refuses to move her seat. Always want to celebrate Black protest once Black people are safely dead.

We are witnessing the weaponization of law enforcement in New York City under the watch of a Democratic Mayor, Governor, and President—all because these leaders rather defend a genocide over listening to the voices of the people. It’s wrong.
In a country where children go hungry, people die unhoused and libraries are only open part time, this is where our resources go
What the hell is going on in Caledon? thepointer.com/article/2024-0… #onpoli
we are supposed to believe that the young people working to end mass slaughter are the threat and that the riot squads sent in to brutalize them are the peacekeepers
TO BE CLEAR, COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY HAS CALLED THE COPS ONTO ITS OWN STUDENTS FOR THE SECOND TIME IN TWO WEEKS, ON THE 56TH ANNIVERSARY OF WHEN THEY LAST CALLED THE POLICE ONTO CAMPUS TO ARREST OVER 700 PROTESTING THE VIETNAM WAR & HARLEM GENTRIFICATION ON APRIL 30TH, 1968
God help us and hear our prayers. 116th and Amsterdam is surreal right now
On a rep-by-pop basis Ottawa's rural citizens votes count more than their urban cousins. Not equitable. #ottcity
That will address the needs of 51% of the population generating 58% of the taxes on 12% of the land; critical things like infrastructure, transit, housing, greenspace snd equity matter to both groups of residents.
Democratic governor. Democratic mayor. Democratic super majorities in the state senate, state house, and city council. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
An army. Literally an army. For a group of kids who have made no threats, are doing nothing violent, and who everyone agrees are unarmed.
CNN's @miguelmarquez: "I've covered lots of this sort of stuff around the world, and i've never seen this many police moving into one area."
I was at both the Emerson and Northeastern encampments when they were raided by police. I also wrote a book on the Russian student movement. Here are 12 lessons I think we can draw so far from the student uprising🧵
If any kid is hurt tonight, responsibility will fall on the mayor and univ presidents. Other leaders and schools have found a safe, de-escalatory path. This is the opposite of leadership and endangers public safety. A nightmare in the making. I urge the Mayor to reverse course.
NEW - @NYCMayor says Columbia protest has been "co-opted" and is going to share their intel, he says at 1 Police Plaza. He advises students involved in the protest to leave the area and tells parents to tell their kids to leave "before the situation escalates."
@socket8333 Attack their views, not their appearance.
@WVangeest The Citizen's old guard columnists mostly own homes. The young stringers do not.
@bpellerin @WVangeest Maybe it is time to see housing as human right, not as investments. Lowered property values is what should be happening all across the country. When an old 2 bed bungalow is priced over $1Million then the inflation has gotten out of hand.
We've had the technology to fix this for decades and the rest of the developed world already implemented it--design the roads for slow driving and active transportation. USDOT makes that hard and has not taken down the barriers they have identified themselves.
We have a crisis of roadway deaths in this country—and today we’re taking a major step toward addressing this with our new rule on automatic emergency braking.
Today I testified in Congress. I was asked if I thought slavery still exist. “Yes. It’s not just that it exists in practice, but that, in the 13th Amendment, there is an exception that reads ‘except as punishment for a crime,’ which means, by law, slavery is still allowed.”
And finally @YorkUniversity joins in on Toronto student intimidation
