NEW: Premier Doug Ford’s use of private air travel took off this year. Schedules obtained through FOI laws reveal that, in a month and a half, Ford took four short-haul domestic flights on an OPP plane and chartered a jet to travel to Texas. globalnews.ca/news/11973406/… #onpoli

The way our media has ignored Shopify execs’ egregious efforts to shape public policy (with the exception of @the_logic and @TheTyee) is actually damning. Whose interest is served when you ignore this?

Idk, feels like it should be front-page news that the CEO of Canada’s largest non-banking company thinks that poor people shouldn’t be allowed to vote.

Is he doing a bit, or just comically incompatible with democratic values?

As of yesterday, the federal government has announced that it will not enable an expansion of Billy Bishop Airport, for now. Thank you to every Torontonian who spoke up: who called out the (hidden) commercial interests behind the provincial government’s push, the contradictions of airport expansion from a city-building perspective, and the damage it would do to our decades-long ambition to create a truly walkable, green and liveable downtown core. But we shouldn’t rest on our laurels. This episode revealed just how vulnerable our city remains to those who see the beautiful places we create as opportunities to extract value, even if doing so destroys the very qualities that made those places valuable in the first place. Our waterfront and downtown didn’t become extraordinary by accident. They are the product of decades of public investment, careful planning and sustained civic ambition. They exist because generations of city-builders chose the long-term public interest over short-term commercial gain. I consider this a warning. We need to keep building a strong civic constituency prepared to defend the city’s long-term interests against those focused on their own financial gain. The golden goose is safe for now. Those who want a piece of it will be back, IMHO.

Did Ontario just get snookered into a $5 billion airport expansion that no one wants for the benefit of a handful of American investors? The plot thickens. (You have to admit, it was odd how this popped back onto the agenda, out of the blue). thestar.com/opinion/star-c…

Today's the day. Toronto’s biggest park in a generation is 10 acres bigger, and it’s now yours to explore. This extends the park's walking, paddling and cycling routes while introducing new spaces for recreation, culture, and gathering along Toronto's waterfront. Biidaasige Park is the culmination of a historic flood protection effort, a tri-government partnership with support from project team members and members of the public. This milestone reflects the work of many people who helped envision, plan, design, and build this new destination. Thank you to everyone who contributed to bringing this next phase of Biidaasige Park to life, the Government of Canada, @ongov, @cityoftoronto, @mcfirstnation, the Lassonde Art Trail Foundation, Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates Inc, Ellis Don, @_CreateTO, @TOPortAuthority, and @TRCA_HQ. There's lots to explore at Biidaasige Park. Learn about upcoming events at bit.ly/4pNCC9t

Toronto is a global city trapped in a provincial, 19th-century British urban plan.

Donations to David Piccini’s riding association nearly doubled after he was put in charge of spending the Skills Development Fund. The RA spent $40,000 in “meetings” that included sushi-rolling classes and expenses related to a Florida golf course thestar.com/politics/provi… #onpoli
