Amazing playgrounds done by @_studio_ludo, incl. schools in Hoboken, Anna Verna at FDR Park, both NJ. Looking forward to keynote at Children Summit in Bratislava. Grateful for opp. to inspire 30 mayors, they have the magic wand to create cities for children, 0-100+ y/o. Urgency!

If you want to understand a huge divide in Toronto and WHY people are so hyped about the Ontario Line look at the main transit project Toronto built in the 2010s (Eglinton Crosstown) vs. the main one for the 2020s (Ontario Line). Not to mention we needed the OL for decades!
What’s happening in Gaza (where a child is either injured or killed every 10 minutes) has become THE moral issue of our time.
I am so sick of the moral panic about everything but killing people.
"At least 20 people may have been buried alive at the medical complex. Children were also amongst the bodies recovered"
It is worth watching this CNN video from the moment Emory Econ Professor @CarolineFohlin came across the violent arrest of a protester on campus and asked the police, with shock, "What are you doing?" That's all that prompted an officer to hurl her to the ground and handcuff her.

This is the intellectual leadership people flock to in the West. I guess what I’m saying is, you should probably start Mandarin lessons.
Breaking: Police just broke up and arrested all students at the University of Minnesota encampment for Gaza , charging them with trespassing and banning all students from campus for one year.
@tparsi Didn't take @WhiteHouse 5 minutes yesterday to condemn #Columbia for alleged #antisemitism. But not a word for a month on MASS GRAVES at #Gaza hospitals. Journalists cry reading Yevtushenko's Babi Yar (event happened in 1941). #GazaGencoide IS NOW! democracynow.org/2024/4/22/head…
A lot of social media discourse is an attempt to ignore the meaning of stories like this. cnn.com/2024/04/22/mid…
Chief Demkiw's irresponsible comments could create the best opportunity in a generation for civilian police oversight in Toronto to take charge. But it can only happen if Mayor Chow is willing to lead. It's now or never.
No one was hurt when a freight train with five burning railcars was stopped in downtown London Sunday night. #ldnont londonnewstoday.ca/london/news/20…
It enrages cheerleaders of Israel's genocidal onslaught that protests against this grave crime are overwhelmingly peaceful. It enrages them that they consistently feature large numbers of Jewish protesters. It enrages them that they reflect public opinion.
It's very obvious what is happening. Apologists for Israel's genocidal onslaught know they've lost public opinion on both sides of the Atlantic. They know pressure on arms sales and diplomatic support is growing. The answer? Whip up a moral panic about protesters instead.
@jschick1 @lukeoneil47 "reacting to an invasion" is a fantastic euphemism for murdering 15,000 children.
Sorry but if you're getting menaced by a bunch of 19 year old nerds sitting around on grass that's on you. Just walk the other way man.
The widespread notion of “struggling landlords” is a grave mischaracterization of the rental market. Canada’s landlord class comprises wealthy families, corporations, and financial investors. @ricardo_tranjan on the myth of the ‘mom-and-pop’ landlord. canadiandimension.com/articles/view/…
Here’s the GoFundMe for Umar Zameer’s legal funds. He and his family face massive legal costs after the crown recklessly prosecuted him and he was smeared by politicians and folks in the media. Please give what you can and/or share. gofundme.com/f/all-i-hope-f…

Why are universities investing in weapons manufacturing? Is a question we should all be asking.
Ontario has cut 5,000 classroom positions since 2018. Yes, cell phones are a distraction. The real problem is the underfunding of public schools. #onted #onpoli. How many positions has your school board lost? See the board-by-board breakdown below. monitormag.ca/articles/ontar…
Smotrich again uses unquestionably genocidal language: "We must destroy Rafah, Nusseirat, & Dir al-Balah 'wipe out the memory of Amalek! …There's no half- measure. Rafah, Dir al-Balah Nusseirat absolute destruction!”
Israeli minister in defence and finance minister Smotrich tonight: “Moments before redemption, we must not hesitate. We must destroy Rafah, Nusseirat, & Dir al-Balah 'wipe out the memory of Amalek! …There's no half- measure. Rafah, Dir al-Balah Nusseirat absolute destruction!”

The main Fire Tower film was also well done which gave you an appreciation of what those who work in those towers go through. Including the loneliness, wildlife encounters, and dangers such as lightning and if course, fire. Rated that one a 5/5. #HotDocs24
Finished Fire Tower at #HotDocs24 which also included shorts called The Big Wait and Asbestos. The Big Wait was pointless which was about a town of only two people & an airstrip. (2/5) Asbestos did an excellent job telling the story of the town including the ups and downs. (5/5)
About to watch two more #HotDocs24 films; Fire Tower and American Cats. Last night, I watched "Porcelain War" which had some beautiful wildlife footage and animations overlaid over porcelain amidst the war in Ukraine. However, there wasn't really a plot, so I rated it a 4/5.
The University of Valencia sets up a Gaza solidarity encampment becoming the first Spanish university to join the global solidarity wave.
Cognitive dissonance is complaining about people using drugs in public places while opposing designated consumption sites. Opposing safe use sites is advocating for the unsafe use sites that already exist all around us where people die alone, & prevents things like safe disposal
Today, BC gov announced they're making public drug use illegal. Public use has not increased because of decrim. People use outside for lack of alternatives. We've been calling for more OPSs, treatment & housing for 25 yrs. If we'd been listened to, there'd be no issue today.
winnipeg has a bustling central market, aptly located at the confluence of the assiniboine and red rivers (the forks) - where the original indigenous groups of the region would meet to trade. nowadays, it's an overpriced market hall, but still a popular meeting point!

@moore_oliver Keep in mind, Toronto has tonnes of family-related tourists (weddings, reunions, etc.). A lot of families try and pack in a whole day of attractions and end up disappointed.
@moore_oliver not a terrible city to live in, but not sure what the appeal would be to a tourist.... neither beautiful, nor full of interesting culture, ppl, or food....
@moore_oliver The very central parts of our city are among the more boring and soulless (Financial District and Southcore). For a tourist who doesn't have a good local guide (ie not their cousin from the 905), it would be easy to get stuck in these areas and not venture out to fun/cool places
Inbox: Toronto ranks second most over-rated city in the world. Based on tourist reviews online, 16.8pc were disappointed. This puts the city closely behind Bangkok (18.4pc) -- which does make one question the methodology Most disappointing attraction in Toronto: the CN Tower
@Ramsey_Kilani I tried all the recommended tourist things whenever my parents came to visit during my first few years here… very low rate of me wanting to do most of them ever again
