Man, is this city ever fun when everyone's in a good mood. #WeTheNorth

My subway train is a bit more rowdy than usual. #WeTheNorth

Am now stuck on the train because someone set off fireworks on the train ahead of us.

Toronto is just one massive street party right now #WeTheNorth

People as far as the eye can see.

I don't think I've ever seen the city like this. #WeTheNorth

@LeslynLewis

This column by @LeslynLewis is a head-scratcher. Canada is undergoing a socialist coup, and the evidence includes... the restrictions imposed by the provincial Conservatives. nationalpost.com/opinion/leslyn…

More evidence of Canada's socialist revolution? Various policies the government has said it is not pursuing.

Apparently, "many Canadians" have binged Black Mirror and told Lewis all about it.

Successful because it complements a regularly-scheduled, high-volume service (the ferry). It provides a second-option, and is not trying to replace an existing service.

If the city were proposing to replace the ferries with water taxis, I think we'd have a much different view on whether this qualifies as "successful".

But hey, if we're going to start replacing low-volume transit lines with provate microtransit, should we also shut down the Gardiner East and Scarborough subway? Or are we only worried about bus routes serving low income folks? www-cbc-ca.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.cbc.ca…

So verified accounts can be handed down to anonymous people? Doesn't that defeat the purpose of verifying someone's identity?

@Ford

We know Henry Ford isn't personally tweeting from the verified @Ford account. Are politicians brands that live on forever? Maybe Twitter should allow users to click on an account's verification badge and provide transparency regarding who/what has been verified.

Ultimately, I think Twitter needs to provide more transparency about verification: the process for getting verified and how you lose it. And, maybe create different verification categories, say for individuals, companies, news orgs, etc.

Well, there goes our tree. And our car.

Glad it didn't fall onto our house.

It was already marked for removal by the city, but nature did its thing.

The day before entering Stage 3, Niagara has a spike of cases, and city council is still debating masks. Maybe a mandatory mask requirement should be a condition of entering Stage 3?

I mean, come on. As of tomorrow, indoor dining will be permitted in Niagara Falls. Casinos and movie theatres can open. Meanwhile, at city hall: niagarafallsreview.ca/news/niagara-r…

Here's a thought: With 80% of Canadians supporting mandatory masks, maybe you'll attract more visitors if you let them know they won't be surrounded by maskless crowds?
