    2023 Toronto Mayoral by-election

    ^That's more pandering to the restaurant owners than anything else, who I assume generally do NOT live downtown.

    Toronto Aura at College Park | 271.87m | 78s | Canderel | Graziani + Corazza

    This location is not like their other locations, with many condo/apartment towers, office towers, hospitals, a university all within steps. There is chance to achieve something different here. Another thing that they need to improve is the little rooms/product displays. They always seem to be...

    Toronto Aura at College Park | 271.87m | 78s | Canderel | Graziani + Corazza

    "The Swedish Deli" in Ikea used to open at 7 or 8 IIRC. Now it opens at 10 like rest of the store, which is past breakfast time. It feels like they have had trouble operating the cafe, with menu items frequently out of stock, coffee machine broken, fridges out of order etc.

    2023 Toronto Mayoral by-election

    OK regardless of what you think of Chow, this is such an illogical and dishonest take. Of course she came third in 2014 because Tory was quickly declared as the safest option to get rid of Ford, by the entire media (Star, Globe, Sun, Natinonal Post - all of them). Lots of left of centre types in...

    2023 Toronto Mayoral by-election

    All these low profile politicians are really overestimating their odds. Or is there an auxiliary benefit to just having run?

    Little Italy/College Street

    Agreed. SO ugly. I wish the rules and the other context around this made it easier for property owners to just combine this lot and the one next to it to simply build a proper 4 storey mid rise.

    Ugh Saxe with all the performative ideas so far.

    2023 Toronto Mayoral by-election

    If I have to assume, Brad is paying BlogTo for this coverage/social media exposure. I know the restaurants have to.

    2023 Toronto Mayoral by-election

    Tory stood up to the province? He had high energy!? Is this post sarcasm? "Enjoying the role" is also a weird bar. I'd enjoy it too. So? Last but not the least, I'm sure the budget/paperwork is managed by staff mainly, not the mayor himself sitting in cubicle working 12-hour days. You don't...

    Feeding wildlife prohibited April 2023

    I'd specifically outlaw feeding pigeons. Put the violators in jail. How exactly could that be "waste of money" if the city isn't allocating sources to enforce it? And no, that's not what outreach is.

    Has anyone seen any plans to improve the maintenance on the existing fleet? Littering more docks around will only do so much to expand usage if the bikes themselves are in pool condition, which they are.

    2023 Toronto Mayoral by-election

    I don't understand the issue people are having with Olivia Chow. Did she do something outrageous while she was a councillor? More so than Saunders, Bradford etc? I wasn't living in Toronto then.

    2023 Toronto Mayoral by-election

    The by-election to replace Tory is one.

    2023 Toronto Mayoral by-election

    I'm just thinking we can expect really disgusting things anyone that can stomach Kouvalis. There has to be a line somewhere.

    Haha this is great:

    2023 Toronto Mayoral by-election

    Exactly that. And they did get blowback for the many wonky aspects of Ontario Line design+alignment, they just didn't care.

    2023 Toronto Mayoral by-election

    Well, John Tory has retired himself but I can see Brad/Ford doing it.

    2023 Toronto Mayoral by-election

    Sort of worried about uploading the Gardiner to the province as that could mean it getting built in a way that is shittier/more quick-and-dirty than the current plan, a la Relief Line/Ontario Line.

    I have absolutely zero trust in Bailao.

    Toronto EQ Bank Tower | 105.18m | 23s | First Gulf | Sweeny &Co

    Wow so much hostility to that one comment. I didn't say they shouldn't have a tower branded after them - just that it didn't match my personal impression of the company. Also, I've never said "online only companies shouldn't have offices for their employees". That's putting words in my mouth for...
