A powerful and courageous account of a horrifying act of Islamophobia -- and hope for a strong, inclusive Canada where everyone can fully belong. Opinion: I was almost burned alive for wearing a hijab. This is what I told my kids /via The Globe and Mail theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…

We are joined by John Lorinc of Spacing to talk about why he thinks spending money on GO Transit between #the905 communities is a better use of money than building a tunnel under the 401 905er.ca/2025/06/is-go-… #canadianpodcasts #podcasts #cdnpoli #ONPoli

I have covered administrations hostile to my news outlet but cannot begin to imagine the pressure Haaretz is under, and marvel at how unflinching their coverage of this war remains

#topoli A curious detail from CoT planning's analysis of multiplex projects in Toronto to date. The applications/approvals skew obviously to the west end, and follow the arc of the rail corridor north. Eager to hear theories about why.

🏭🏘🏢Sean Galbraith🗻❄️🥏 We took some heat for leaking this on social media, but we think it’s important to spread the word about proposed changes to our housing policies. This is going to PHC this week. John Lorinc thx for profiling our efforts + opinions on this in The Globe and Mail allowing more awareness

Missing middle housing initiatives are expected to accommodate HALF of Toronto's population growth over the next 25 years. WOW! Simple policy changes are achieving massive utility gain from our established neighbourhoods. Move to Toronto, your family will prosper.

Thank you John Lorinc for this. Within the cycling community those videos of the Brazilian Bus Drivers, on the Stationary Bikes being buzzed by a bus have gone semi-viral. facebook.com/share/v/1CAynF… I've often thought that this should be part of ALL Driver Training/Licensing
