Hope city councillors, especially the so-called progressives, re-enact this scene in Toronto city council but with John Tory on Wednesday. Cementing his humiliation in his effort to cling to power and pass his awful budget. #Toronto #TOpoli #JohnTory #TorysToronto #AusterityTO #TOBudget #TorontoCityHall

Opinion | The big problem with John Tory’s budget? It’s short one John Tory and $1.5 billion

The mayor will leave behind a budget that’s missing funding from the province and feds — and nobody to take responsibility for his choices.

And on Twitter Tory’s $200K goon cops gloat about harassing riders for not paying for contemptuous service. You owe these people nothing.

When the Dufferin bus does come it is sardine-packed. How does Rick Leary have his job? “Opposition” councilors should be talking about the TTC every day but aren’t. #Toronto #TTC #Transit #TorysToronto #AusterityTO #TOpoli

College streetcar & Dufferin bus both 15+ mins away. If you need to be on time anywhere in the west, you won’t. The mayor & his yahoos don’t take the bus or streetcar.

Tory Toronto’s decline is profound.

Lady tells me this is the 3rd not in service Dufferin Bus to pass the stop. Fuck this city. No buses. No streetcar. Only suckers take transit in this city. #Toronto #TTC #Transit #TorysToronto #AusterityTO #TOpoli

Never forget that the City of Toronto had more than enough resources to add an extra $50,000,000 to the police budget...but today...said it doesn't have enough resources to protect our community's most vulnerable. Never forget.

Toronto says no to immediate 24/7 warming centres, but will study the idea further

Toronto City Council has rejected the idea of immediately implementing 24/7 warming centres and declaring homelessness a public health crisis, but has asked city staff to look at the feasibility of keeping the spaces open 24/7 during the winter months and to report back.

Tory's housing guy in the beaches doing god's work w the rest of them.

QT @GraphicMatt:
Thompson’s motion to DELETE the Board of Health recommendations to declare a crisis related to shelter spaces and to open more warming centres — and instead ask the province and feds for more support — CARRIES 15-11.

Opinion | Want to check how much of your money councillors spent on their last election campaign? Good luck

A new rules no longer require campaign expense receipts to be filed with the city.

It’s not just the TTC. There’s a growing sense that things in Toronto are spinning out of control

Toronto is still a safe place to live and the odds of suffering a random attack are tiny. But the perception of danger is real
