Meanwhile, the premier is weighing in. It’s been 12 years since Toronto had a left-wing mayor and the city has a $1.5 billion budget hole so I’m not sure what the fear is, really. The last left-wing mayor left office with a budget surplus.
Replying to @l_stone
“If a lefty mayor gets in there, God help the people of Toronto,” Mr. Ford adds. “If a left-wing mayor gets in there, we’re toast.” But he adds he wouldn’t rescind the strong mayor powers, says it’s up to people to decide.

FACT: So Canadian Corp profits rose to between 456 Billion to 523 Billion in the last 2 yrs. CEO pay rose 26%. Your wages were below inflation - so YOU GOT A CUT at 3 % raise. Inflation is NOT because of your wages

It's #BellLetsTalk day so let's talk about how Bell won't provide satellite internet or phone service to remote indigenous communities, or how Bell's own staff don't have access to mental health benefits!

I was laid off 2 months ago with thousands of coworkers and I’ve never even seen a severance letter let alone been offered severance.
Regarding Twitter’s reduction in force, unfortunately there is no choice when the company is losing over $4M/day. Everyone exited was offered 3 months of severance, which is 50% more than legally required.

“One of our principal responsibilities is to keep our community safe and to keep Torontonians safe." Except police don't prevent crime, they react to it. If you want a safer city, you need economic changes. Cheaper housing, free transit, community programs. This is basic stuff.

Since it's #InternationalMensDay, here's a thread of every part of the gynaecological anatomy that is named after a man, with a bit of trivia about each man. Some of the bits are very specific. Before you ask, there are no parts of the gynaecological anatomy named after women...
