So many of us have friends and family across the border. We know American people are fellow humans like anyone else and that the enemy is MAGA fascism.

Any American I see traveling in Canada without a MAGA hat will be welcomed by me with open arms. Canadians have a degree of empathy for what you're dealing with because we feel threatened by the fascist takeover too.

Canadians and Americans who give a damn about respecting peoples' dignity, no matter their gender or race, will stand in solidarity.

The important point here is side streets in addition to arterials. Many routes through the city are inaccessible via only side streets, and many destinations exist along arterials. His attempt to remove arterial bike routes would make many trips impossible or take significantly longer.

Vote anyways. It's so easy and if that's all we can do to participate then it'd be idiotic not to do the bare minimum.

It is often through neighbourboods or at times of day ourside of rush hour. Even bloor west is car traffic free most of the day.

I wasn't aware of many of those, thanks for sharing. Those are hateful, deeply bigoted policies.

Those were like firecrackers compared to what we have today. And to be clear, it was absolutely grotesque and caused cancer for generations.

Can you please share a source on this? It sounds on-brand for the Heritage foundation and I'd like to learn more.

His right-wing populism and PR dollars are extremely good at getting him re-elected. Ontarians continue to fall for it and blame all of his failures on Trudeau while forgiving his scandals and blatant corruption.

Education is a provincial responsibility which is in trouble under the Ontario and Alberta conservative premiers. Doug Ford was a highschool hash dealer, didn't go to university, inherited his dad's company, then became a conservative politician. So it's unsurprising that he sees no value in education.

It says a lot about the current state of the party that this is the first assumption many people make.

Tesla has created a vacuum since nobody wants to buy their swastikars outside of the USA, and there's international support to buy Canadian. We have the steel, aluminum, and minerals for batteries domestically. I could see it working.

Something tells me Montreal won't be too happy about this one.
