Who’s behind the massive lobbying campaign to expand the island airport? Toronto Star opinion writer @rwarnica.bsky.social dug into lobbying records and found one company that stands to gain "significantly" if the federal and provincial governments go forward with an airport expansion plan.

This. And if I'm OK with having a pack of lies rather than verifiable research, I can make up far more entertaining ones on my own.

"Tell us, what year is it?" We're excited to share an excerpt from Where You'll Find Us, a new YA fantasy novel from @jenstjude.bsky.social! Also, a moment of appreciation for this cover:
