Canadian! I post about sports and politics and walking and living in this stupid city (Toronto). Account may contain cat pics. The cat is Godzilla. Photography.

Bay Area friends: would you consider opening your home to these two cuddly cats? A friend found them behind a gas station. Their sibling, a black cat, got adopted, but it appears no one likes orange cats. They are being kept in a bathroom for the time being and need a home.

A friend of mine found these three kittens behind a Bay Area gas station. They are tame, vaccinated, and incredibly affectionate. Unfortunately, she's unable to keep them and I'm trying to find them a home. They are at risk of going to a shelter. Bay Area people, are you open to adopting?

A story of cause and effect: Last November, Ontario banned cities from using speed safety cameras to issue tickets. Reckless speeding immediately surged in Toronto, Ottawa, Guelph, and cities throughout the province. A 🧵 about my latest in Bloomberg (gift link)

What Happens When Speed Cameras Get Shut Off

In 2025, Ontario banned automated traffic enforcement. Now the number of drivers exceeding the speed limit has surged, according to traffic data.

Recently had to explain to a professional from outside Toronto, that the vast majority of downtown Toronto workers commute by bike, walking, or transit. Some drive, but they are the minority. Perhaps I should show them these bike share stations…

Love to have a provincial government that won’t recognize the democratic rights of anyone who didn’t vote for them - whether it’s the island airport, the science centre, Ontario place, city counsel or bike lanes.

NEW: Ontario’s transportation minister says the Ford government will not repeal the legislation that expropriated the Toronto island airport. Sarkaria also chastised the federal government for giving into a “fringe group” of Toronto residents globalnews.ca/news/11996784/… #onpoli

Probably more helpful to think of them not so much as “Canadian wildfires” but rather “climate change wildfires currently consuming Canada”
