On traffic engineers sabotaging cities that want to improve safety:

"There can be only one agenda... There are many great engineers out there ready to prioritize public safety... Any city council wanting to can find these people, empower them, and support them so that they can do great things."

@gemelliz since #'KingFord and his band of fools are so intent on killing our public health care system (and us) by under funding it, creating staff shortages and pitting the public system against private interests, is there any way we can get the feds to direct-fund our public health care system as well!?

@cjmoorehead @CanadianCrone @gemelliz Ford's greatest alley is voter apathy, and a belief that all the politicians are the same. Up to the NDP and/or Liberals to show people this is not the case.

Ontario MPP Kaleed Rasheed resigns from Ford's cabinet following Greenbelt probe | CBC News

"Coincidentally" went on a trip to Vegas at same time as developer Shakir Rehmatullah, who benefited from the recent Greenbelt land swap

"Coincidentally" booked a massage at same time, place as Rehmatullah.

No wonder Ford is picking on trans kids as a distraction.

Ontario’s solution to the health care crisis is to hire nurses through agencies — and the cost has now quadrupled

This is the inevitable cost of healthcare privatization.
