In 2023, Amsterdam introduced a 30 km/h limit. Many arterials were lowered from 50 km/h, 4,500 signs installed, 140 lights reconfigured, and 200 km of markings adjusted. Aiming to improve safety, liveability, and accessibility, 80% of the road network is now at this key speed.🧵

To be clear, as many are asking, I will be voting NO to a leadership review in September, nor am I doing meetings. Bonnie Crombie 🇨🇦 has my support, and I am both committed to and really enjoying my work for the people of Muskoka.

Our economic/security order has changed. So we have to work together to build our industrial base. This week, @markjcarney has done that with Canada's Premiers, & that's what Mélanie Joly is talking about in today's Globe. We're all in this together. theglobeandmail.com/business/artic…

One of the biggest barriers to re-greening cities is the idea every resident is entitled to 10 square metres of paved public space for a private vehicle that sits idle 23.5 hours per day. A notion Reims is slowly challenging, and de-paving its streets one parking space at a time.

Replacing a car with an e-bike can save a household $120,000 over a decade—enough to wipe out debt, fund a college account, or boost retirement savings.

Congratulations to Virginia Mearns on her appointment as Canada’s new Arctic Ambassador! With over a decade of experience advocating for Inuit communities, Virginia brings both heart and expertise to this important role. Her appointment comes at a time of shifting geopolitical

I didn't think they'd be convicted. The standard is proof beyond a reasonable doubt. But their behavior was predatory, disgusting, and immoraI. I hope junior hockey (and the NHL) think long and hard about the role models their players ought to be.

Subsidising e-bikes instead of cars could really kick the electric vehicle transition into high gear theconversation.com/subsidising-e-…

The premiers and I are united. With a changing global landscape, we’re working together to secure new trade deals and build a stronger, more resilient Canada.

One thing we’ve learned to appreciate about Europe is the easy rail access to rural recreational opportunities. Like hopping on a train in the city centre and—within 15 minutes—immersing ourselves in the forests, wetlands, and hillsides of Montagne de Reims Regional Natural Park.

The attack on a Jewish father in front of his children is horrible and unacceptable. Such acts are an attack on all of us. My thoughts are with the victim and his family. The SPVM should bring the perpetrator to justice swiftly.

"Because we’ve become so adept at cooling the indoors with air conditioning, we’ve forgotten the importance of cooling the outdoors, too. There's no technology that cools it as effectively as a tree; public infrastructure with major implications for energy use and public health."

The forest fire in Kawartha Lakes has been burning for days, and I know many are watching with concern. Thank you to the crews and first responders working hard to contain it and protect the land. As forest fires become more frequent, Ontario must be ready — and take action

“In Finland, the # of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 of 5 people affected make their way back to a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

“We are being forced to choose who will receive care, and who will not. We go home haunted by the harm we may have caused,” nurses at Queen’s Park are calling on the Ford government to implement mandatory minimum 1:4 staffing ratios, which they say will save thousands of lives.

Thank you to the firefighters working tirelessly to contain the forest fires in Kawartha lakes. It's their good work and local the work of local leaders that are keeping our communities safe. Our thoughts are with everyone affected by fires in Ontario, across Canada and around
