How will COVID-19 impact our city budget and how do we make decisions that don't reinforce inequities. Thank you @DublinInquirer for profiling the City of Toronto's equity responsive budgeting process as a potential solution. @FeministSarah @joshalerner dublininquirer.com/2020/05/13/if-…

@Diana_C_McNally I think it’s alluding to day light savings/ it getting dark early in the winter. But, that being said it makes no sense.
An example of our “booming” rural communities is Markdale. Currently, it sits at about 1200 residents, and has about 1000 new housing units planned or under construction.
Saw a “lost” GO Transit bus in Markdale, Ontario today. One of the best, quickest, and least expensive things the Province could do to improve rural mobility is to expand GO Bus service to our booming rural towns. Low hanging fruit!
