For all my friends in the Vancouver BC area of Cascadia, here is a great design immersion for you about how to regenerate the Fraser Lowlands. regeneratecascadia.org/cascadia-event…

My father Stephen Lewis is spectacularly uninterested in social media, so I’m posting this myself (though he has read it and is prepared to suffer the indignity of all I'm about to reveal). When he was Canada’s ambassador to the UN from 1984-88, Dad was truly shocked by the

Who am I in this rapidly changing world? I have to go out into the world to find out. I am the man who restores health to rivers -- like the one that flowed so beautifully during the heavy rains yesterday in the forest behind my house. I am the man who seeks guidance by

Checked out Dundas West Fest after an event last night. This was after midnight. There is far more demand for car-free urban street-life in Toronto than any of our leaders understand. All of our closed-street festivals are packed for a reason. Give the people what they want!

Yesterday, Bike Share Toronto reached a record 36,000 trips! In addition the 14-day average is about 20% higher than this time last year. The popularity of the system is exploding, and our governments need to support a safe and connected cycling network.

Ontario has a science centre that should be open but was closed prematurely and a transit station that was named for the science centre that’s closed because it was never opened. The Ford government just isn’t good at governing.

A beautiful exploration of fractal consciousness in the bioregional movement and how we are organizing to bring humanity back into right relationship with the Earth... bioregionalearth.org/blog/fractal-c…

Many Canadians know of The Group Of Seven, but have you heard of the Indigenous Group of Seven? Formally known as the Professional Native Indian Artists Incorporation, it formed in 1973, with seven Indigenous artists to promote Indigenous art. These are the artists. 🧵1/9

When I hear ‘coming hat in hand for government money’, my first thought is Ontario Place for Everyone…

40 years ago, Canada faced the deadliest terrorist attack in its history.   Today, we mourn the 268 Canadian victims of the Air India bombing and all who have been killed in acts of terrorism — a sombre reminder of our commitment to fight violent extremism and keep Canadians

#ONpoli “Folks, this province has a massive housing crisis. That’s why we need to spend $400M on these new housing units for our cars.”

This needs to be repeated at every opportunity. The Ontario Science Centre was never an unsafe building. It was closed because Ford wants people to forget it and stop fighting for it. Don’t let him. #SaveOntarioScienceCentre #SaveOSC

“Despair is a victory for hate. Hate wants us to be too weak to change. Love does not despair. Love makes us strong. Love gives us the courage to act. Love gives us hope that change is possible. Love allows us to change the script.” RETWEET if you stand with Stephen Colbert!

14 cars / 27 bikes this light. Adelaide Street EB at Peter. 9am on Wednesday.

Trita Parsi Holocaust scholars, Jewish survivors, and genocide experts from Bartov to Schabas to Goldberg say it clearly: Gaza is genocide. If “Never Again” only applies to Jews, it means nothing. #GazaGencoide #GazaStarving #Gaza #Israel #WarCrimes zosimaspeaks.com/p/gaza-and-the…

In Ojibwe our word for actor is emaanjiinad. May the ancestors greet you with open arms as you journey towards that western doorway. Chi Miigwech for opening the film world for your brothers and sisters during your magnificent earth walk. Miigwechwendaami weweni gii moseyin

Penny L. Heiple and I are excited to partner with Brian Puppa and Susan Bosak of the Legacy Project to launch the world's first ever "Bioregional Pando Fund" for regenerating the Earth. bioregionalearth.org/blog/bioregion…

Survivors could have chosen anger. Instead, they chose hope — and gave the rest of us a roadmap for Canada’s future. This new and permanent National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation honours their story, carries their legacy, and makes it part of our shared story as Canadians.

I am excited to share more about the bioregional learning ecosystem we have been creating in Barichara, Colombia throughout the last five years. As you can see here, we can come a long way! Read and be inspired. linkedin.com/pulse/barichar…

Perhaps the most exciting new way that we are structuring the Design School for Regenerating Earth is through our place-based hubs -- where our members can host their own local community organizing efforts in geographically significant ways. We have put a lot of effort into
