The City should be putting basketball nets up not pulling them down. I’ve delivered that message to our parks staff tonight - they agree. We should absolutely be encouraging kids to play in our city.
Today a reporter asked me if
@Drake
is "too much" during the
@Raptors
playoffs. Here's my answer:
@Drake
is Toronto's most enthusiastic ambassador. The fact that it aggravates people in Milwaukee actually makes me happy - it means I don't have to do it!

The Toronto sign is purple and gold today in memory of one of the greatest players to ever step on the court. Toronto joins the basketball community at large in mourning the tragic loss of Kobe Bryant and his daughter, Gianna.

My son Kade had his 11th birthday party last night. None of his invited friends came. That hurt. I’m asking my Twitter friends to show him some love today. If you have a minute, please send him a birthday wish.

Meet Grey Bradford Tory, daughter of Allie and George, born Wednesday morning.
6th grandchild and counting...no pressure there!
Congratulations Allie and George and welcome beautiful Grey!
We had quite a lot of razzle dazzle here when our
@Raptors
won the NBA Championship!
@Drake
,
@ShawnMendes
, &
@theweeknd
think it is pretty cool to be here. And we give a very WARM welcome to people from around the world who choose to come here. The column? Bone-chillingly silly.
Many Canadians are giddy at the prospect that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle could be moving to Canada, injecting some razzle dazzle to the sprawling, bone-chillingly cold country.
The Toronto sign will be lit in the colours of Somalia’s flag today in memory of the innocent victims of terrorism in Mogadishu. Our thoughts are with Somalia.

Last night we were thrilled to see our son Christopher married to Sadie Weinstein. Here are all four children and their partners celebrating together with us.
Thank you to Prime Minister
@JustinTrudeau
and the Government of Canada for listening to concerns of employers and helping to make it possible for more people to keep their jobs and keep paycheques. This will be a huge help to many in getting through this.
Asked about declaring Easter Bunny & Tooth Fairy essential as NZ did. Confirmed of course the Easter Bunny & Tooth Fairy are essential workers in Toronto. Asked
@fordnation
to make sure they are essential provincewide as well. Thanks to everyone planning to
#StayHome
for Easter.
Don Cherry is way off base to question the devotion of newer Canadians to the very same veterans and the sacrifices we will honour tomorrow on Remembrance Day. His comments are unfair and just plain wrong.
For 7 seasons Kevin Pillar was Toronto's Superman in the outfield and pretty good at the plate too! We're going to miss him on the field for the
@BlueJays
and the "Blue Jays in 30" highlight shows will never be the same. Thank you
@KPILLAR4
and good luck!
Congratulations to
@superfan_nav
for being the first fan inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame!
Nav is far more than a superfan, he's synonymous with our
@Raptors
.
We really do have the best fans in the world.
New emergency orders announced yesterday to help limit the spread of Covid-19 are now in effect. The Toronto Police Service will continue to engage, educate and enforce, but we will not be doing random stops of people or cars. 1/2

My heart goes out to the families and loved ones of the nine people killed and 16 injured in today’s cowardly and incomprehensible attack in Toronto. Please read my updated statement here.

No reporter should be harassed while doing their job. I know I speak on behalf of all
@MapleLeafs
fans when I say this behaviour - harassing media outside Scotiabank Arena - is totally unacceptable & anyone caught doing this should be banned from the festivities & the property.
I lost my dad 12 years ago today. He was my hero and I think of him every day as people said I would but it is mostly with a smile about our wonderful relationship and all the funny family stories. I do miss being able to call him though.
