    Instead of focusing on developing more condos, our Premier should be building schools and parks in areas like Liberty Village, Corktown and others to better serve the community that lives there today. We need public services to build a livable city.

    Another reason developing the while bypassing local and City consultation is a horrible idea: not enough schools and no funding in sight.

    This is absurd. I live in Leslieville. Very few of these buildings are worthy of protection. Our residential streets are already off the table. Now, the City is actively working to prevent intensification on Queen Street East, adjacent a planned subway station.

    1011 Queen Street East - Variety Store - proposed for Heritage listing of non-designated properties.
    1026-1028 Queen Street East - Giggles & Dabrusin MP building - proposed for Heritage listing of non-designated properties.
    1220 Queen Street East - 1960's bank building - proposed for Heritage listing of non-designated properties.

    There were so many fantastic people running across the city and I really hope that they will run again and that people will choose change. Change is hard but we are often so much the better for it. 😊 /end

    Many thanks to the observant ⁦⁩ streetcar driver who just beeped her horn to let me know my glasses had fallen out of my pocket when I was yakking on the phone while walking along Dundas West. Much appreciated!

    Me too Matt, me too. While still disappointed, looking forward to 22' is major motivation.

    As someone who has been watching Council for 10 years, I was really looking forward to the 2018-2022 Council w/ 47 members. Was almost certain to include more new voices than any Council I’ve covered. Instead, we got a lot of incumbents, and meetings that still go full chaos mode

    ...it’s interesting to see how much time & effort Mayor is spending on taking-part in these multiple community-meetings for each & every new site in . Admirable that he is willing to spend political-capital on getting new built.

    Putting more transit capacity into Scarborough is a good thing.

    People in Scarborough rely on a robust bus network to move within Scarborough and connect them to the rest of the city. Having a bus garage in Scarborough will make this bus network more efficient; capacity for 250 buses. Usually these buses were being serviced in the west end.

    Went by the Pits today. I'm still having difficulty believing how great the now Dawes-to-Junction Danforth-Bloor bike lanes are (even with the Spadina to Avenue construction). I can't believe it took Toronto so long to do with this. Thx to councillors who saw the light.

    Anyway nice day in the park. Everyone knows what to do.

    Lest we forget. #2018

    Bill 5 created a "patchwork" of expense limits, Chu says. Those who entered race after change had full expense limit to put accurate materials in place, where those already running who spent money on materials they couldn't use had only limited amount to put out new materials

    Yes, mixed-tenure new-build sites happen regularly in Toronto (*if the MATH works). See the stuff that we shared with you about the project - or the plans for WILSON station under program in .

    I'll never forget being intro'ed to John David Hulchanski's Three Cities work, demonstrating Toronto's disappearing 'middle class'. Canada ranks with Greece, behind Poland, Slovenia in income equality. Note the disappearing middle class in feudal levels of disparity.
