Not once in my life has a teacher not put on the men's or women's hockey team during the Winter Olympics. Either the Capt. Canada schtick is back or it's a distraction towards the insane OSAP cuts.

Every time I walk outside, I'm more and more tempted to get a bodycam. Drivers' regard for anyone else is completely non-existent.

I've always loved Mitch Marner. At no point have I thought he was washed, garbage, or bad in high pressure situations. Not once not ever.

MR. NICHOLAS SUZUKI THANK YOU

I appreciate the wording of this, rightfully telling riders who is to blame.

Worth noting that GardaWorld's subsidiary TalentWorld has the contract for the TTC's red-vest customer service representatives.

Looks like the "pinko" speech favour has come to roost. I can't think of two worse people to receive the Order

Hot take: You shouldn't have to spend thousands of dollars a year to big insurance just to participate in society. www.theglobeandmail.com/investing/pe...

i love toronto

Currently in a >500-person line for free bread that snakes around Union Station if anyone wants to know what I'm doing on a Friday afternoon. Possible recession indicator?

Curling is on, which means I definitely should have been in bed a long time ago 🫩

"Under OSAP changes, ¼ of funding can be non-repayable grants and 75% will be loans - an almost reversal of the current system, where up to 85% can be grants and 15% loans." Unfreezing tuition is one thing, but this is just a continuation of Doug Ford's crusade against higher education. 1/2

Got this mailer from Evan Solomon (eugh) re: the enshittification of Canada Post, but it is so funny yet deceptive that none of the "facts" actually counter any of the claims, some actually supporting the claim. He doesn't call them myths because they're true.

Help, I'm lost!

Only if every road in the city is tolled at $0.10 with the revenue funding road maintenance, but I don't think Burnside would like that very much

Holyday would liquidate the TTC if he had the choice

what a shot

My train was held at each station between Avenue and Laird for 1-2 minutes. Turns out the culprit was the intersection at Leslie causing bunching. I do foresee at least some short-turning in the future.

I think we actually built a series of bomb shelters.

Everyone booed at Don Valley Station and chanted "Science Centre"

I can't think of a way companies can get me to hate their product more than to have ads that interrupt the biggest cultural performance in the world.

Ford can either call his own public inquiry (and write the terms of reference) or he can wait for the next government to do something he'll enjoy even less.

I wonder how the Panthers-Lightning game is goi--

I just had to buy the poster version of the 2026 TTC ride guide art; definitely my most favourite from recent memory.

We tried to invite Ontario Premier Doug Ford to our live show in Toronto on Thursday, February 5th, hosted by @cycletoronto.bsky.social, so we brought two comically large tickets to Queen's Park. Here's how it went. Get normal sized tickets here: boxoffice.hotdocs.ca/websales/pag...

The 501 Züm Queen used to be my daily bus when I lived in Brampton. Very scary and I hope everyone is okay. It speaks to the stroad that is Queen Street and the necessity of a BRT ASAP.

War, poverty, visitor parking, hunger, homelessness, racism So many systemic issues in society

There's a bike lane under here

Every delay or closure longer than 30 minutes needs to have a post-mortem presented to the following TTC board: what happened, why it happened, and what is being done to mitigate/prevent. Nearly a four hour closure across nine stations is nothing to just shrug at and hope it doesn't happen again.

Hedging bets on whether in a couple weeks we would rather have perpetual construction instead.

It would be more cost-effective and have fewer negative mental health impacts to dump private job agencies and mutual obligations entirely. Spend government $ on a genuinely useful employment aggregator service/site and f2f support for those who want/need it. AND implement a UBI. Done!

GO Transit announced the litany of service reductions for tomorrow www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Two years ago, I wrote for The Star about how it isn't a good idea to pray that Union can bear the load of an entire network on any given day. It's still not a good idea. Today showed that one incident can paralyse everything. www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

I miss him 😥 He left us when we needed him the most.

Breathe in breathe out This thing shouldn't open east of Don Valley until May for the sake of the 34 Eglinton East bus riders that would effectively lose their (faster) bus.

Definitely the direction the TTC needs to take when they overhaul the wayfinding strategy You should not need a phone to find out if your bus is coming or not

HELP HELP THE FABRIC OF SPACE-TIME IS COLLAPSING SAVE YOURSELVES

Doug Ford, welcome to the War on Ca--

Made the pilgrimage to the TOC (transit-oriented Costco)

I think I'm already jealous. An RT they didn't let rot, dedicated entry and exit gates, and probably the best view from a train I've ever seen (between Main Street-Science World and Granville)

Thirty-nine too many

A good opportunity as any to showcase some really pleasant spaces from my travels

Ford 🤝 Trump

The tried and true method for winning back riders is by running better/reliable service. But there's room to be creative: charging each hotel guest a TTC fare for each night to also discourage driving/Ubering, increasing parking ticket fines by an amount proportional to the TTC's deficit, etc.

HYVÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ 🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮

Happy New Year to this man, and everyone else too I guess
