To even insinuate that the tragedies of this pandemic aren’t weighing heavy on the Premier is absurd. From day 1, the Premier has been addressing Ontarians on a daily basis, being upfront about the good, bad & the ugly. I for one, can see the hurt & pain he is carrying with him.

Agreed. ActiveTO in certain spots has become a larger hinderance to the city than a benefit. Early on in the pandemic when the downtown core was empty, it was useful but now it’s not. Bumper to bumper traffic has become a constant in TO. Time to restore lanes back to normal.

Respectfully Minister, it is not the Government of Ontario’s words that are causing damage, it is your government’s actions.

People work hard. Ford is playing politics with people’s jobs. We think that’s wrong. // Les Canadiens travaillent fort. Ford fait de la politique avec leurs emplois. C'est inacceptable.

I extend my deepest condolences to the Muslim community and the victims and families of those affected by the terrible and hateful acts of violence in New Zealand. My thoughts and prayers are also with the Muslim community of Etobicoke North during this time of grieving.

For nearly 40 years, Rustic Bakery has been a valued small business and community staple here in York South-Weston. Always a pleasure stopping by for great coffee, treats and even better conversations with staff and customers.

Two years ago, an unthinkable evil happened in our city. Hatred and violence has no place in Toronto. Today, we remember those who lost their lives in the Yonge Street Tragedy and keep their families in our thoughts and prayers🙏🏻

I’m saddened to learn about the defacing and vandalism at @baps_toronto . Our friends at Baps have been steadfast leaders of our community in Toronto and beyond for many years. Acts of vandalism like this at any place of worship will never be tolerated in the Province of Ontario.

Hypocrisy alive & well over the affordable housing development in West Don-lands. Critics of the work have relentlessly called for expedited affordable housing in the wake of Covid-19. ON Gov’t moves to swiftly build, immediate protest. Only support AH where, when & how they want

Raoul Wallenberg was a brave and courageous Swedish diplomat who saved thousands of Hungarian Jews from the holocaust. Today, as we pay tribute to his legacy, let’s continue working together to fight antisemitism and build a stronger, more inclusive Ontario.
