Just got this in the mail. Thanks to @dharrison54 for letting me participate in this project and LexisNexis for all their help. Please note, I will likely be insufferable at holiday parties this year. Govern yourselves accordingly (but please still invite me to holiday parties).

The CBC has the trademark for Hockey Night in Canada and logos. I wonder if they'll license the branding?

Our Line 2 operator is acting as tour guide and making recommendations for things to see and do at various stops. Give this guy a raise!

Tolls at rush hour would encourage people to drive at different times, and the revenue could help expand transit and commuter options. You're promising gridlock.

For the millions of Ontario drivers who count on the Gardiner Expressway and Don Valley Parkway, here’s our promise: We’ll never toll these highways and we’ll never tear them down.

Guaranteeing ongoing gridlock is quite the flex.

Today, I joined Mayor Chow to announce that Ontario will officially take ownership of the Gardiner Expressway and the Don Valley Parkway by fall 2027.
As the new owner of these critical highways, our guarantee is simple: We will never toll them and we will never tear them down.

Hey @UPS, maybe tell your drivers not to swerve onto the sidewalk to make deliveries as kids ride by?

No @blogto, a guy who only appears in a few games does not necessarily get a World Series ring.
Former Toronto Blue Jay is getting his World Series ring no matter who wins

I'm no employment lawyer, but is this legal? You can't not pay employees just because you call them "volunteers".

Governments are generally immune from liability for policy decisions (as opposed to liability for negligent implementation). I haven't seen the claim, but this sounds like a stretch thestar.com/news/gta/etobico…

Obviously it'll depend on the text of the amendments, but giving authors the right to a portion of resale would mean architects of Toronto houses could be in for a big payday theglobeandmail.com/politics…

Wow. Resigning as Finance Minister on the morning of a fiscal update while publicly lambasting your boss has got to be one of the most satisfying ways to quit a job.

Whatever you think of the International Criminal Court or its legitimacy, the fact remains that Canadian law makes it an indictable offence to obstruct its work. I guess Poilievre would revoke Canada's ratification of the Rome Statute? canlii.org/en/ca/laws/stat/s…

Governments are already immune from liability for policy decisions. An order to remove bike lanes would be a policy decision. So, I'm not sure how much of a difference this makes.

It says a lot about #Bill212 when the government has to immediately issue an amendment to clarify that they cannot be held liable when people are eventually injured or killed as a result of their legislation.

Noticing that a number of people I follow are moving to Threads and/or Bluesky. If #TOPoli could settle on a single alternative, that would be great. Also, where's the menswear guy going?

I don't see how this lawsuit is viable. Even if social media has harmed students, the social media companies don't owe school boards a duty of care. And how have the boards (as opposed to the students) been harmed? thestar.com/politics/provinc…

If Ontario's carbon emission targets have to comply with the Charter, why not government decisions on bike lane construction? thestar.com/news/olivia-chow…
