Where is the accountability in all of this? How do taxpayers continue to be on the hook for this atrocious, inexcusable debacle?

We haven't been since March 2023 and have no plans to go back. We do all the same as you and we also don't have any American streaming or Amazon.I'm trying to purge American pop culture and technology which is a harder task but doable.

This is unacceptable. We have cleaner, cheaper options that are being pushed aside for these huge increases. We need to see large scale solar, wind and batteries on the books, not this. Shame on the Ford Government.

I'm more concerned with all of the kms of sewer and water pipe, roads etc that will be needed when we can't even maintain what is currently in place. Tewin is so far from any current infrastructure. Starting from scratch seems so wasteful. Not to mention GHG.

Great article Laine. How can council continue to support the Tewin development in light of this type of funding shortfall? Council should not be approving any new developments anywhere in the city until we have fully committed to densification.

In a recent National Post article, the Macdonald-Laurier Institute argued that climate is no longer a priority for Canadians, so Carney should reverse Trudeau’s climate policies. Let’s dive into who they really are and why they want us to think that Canadians don’t care about climate. 🧵#ClimateSky

BREAKING: Canadians are being warned to be “extra vigilant” against deliberate disinformation efforts & campaigns during the last few weeks of the Canadian Federal Election. Disinformation has become a constant thing, but a significant ramp-up is expected as we approach the Debates later this week.

The feelings of pride and sadness are so strong as I listen to these powerful words. As a Canadian, I like having friends and I don't like fighting with them. It feels so foreign to be at odds with our neighbours. #carneyforpm

As we witness the rapid backsliding of hard fought environmental gains in the U.S., we need to remember this when we go to vote in our own upcoming Federal election. We must vote for the candidates and parties that protect our democratic processes and freedom of expression.

With a federal election on the horizon, don't forget about the environment. What are your candidates going to do to protect our land, our air, our water and all the living things? 🌳💧🌬️🫎🐸 The threats from the south include threats to all of them.

But there has never been a more crucial time to get out of our complacency and into the discomfort. The stakes are too high. Talk. This is the most important one. Talk to your friends, coworkers, cashiers, everyone. Support each other.

Write to business leaders, your elected city, provincial and federal politicians. Call them, go visit them. Tell them what's important to you. Protest. Maybe you've never been to a protest. Maybe chanting and marching and waving signs isn't your style. It's not mine either. 🧵

Action. It's the best antidote for the anxiety you're feeling about Trump's BS. We all have to act. Small and big, each act is important. Stand up. Amplify. Resist. 🧵

Surely the City could have found a solution to migrate existing followers. Indeed, this is disappointing and weak. As always, thank you for your thoughtful words Laine.
