Lol! I always think #AStopAtWilloughby is a stop at #Willowdale (a neighborhood in #ScarboroughME near the now-defunct railroad tracks).

Lily Cheng would like to tell you that it's important to wear reflective vest as a pedestrian, but has nothing to say to drivers about slowing down when conditions are bad.
On the positive side we don’t have a lot of moments to meet progressive voices and local orgs within our own North York neighborhood. So those type of gathering are a good way to meet local folks that are involved, without having to join a group downtown
And seeing that the room was packed, it does remind the councillor we aren’t just the car centric citizens she read on her Facebook and that forgetting about us would mean a lot of engaged citizens against her
At the #Willowdale Climate Action roundtable organized by my local Toronto city councillor Lily Cheng
I’m torned on those events. I wonder how much of it is just to give good conscience to the councillor.
While she keeps voting against more dense neighborhoods and in favor of pro-parking policies

I guess my understanding of the motion wasn't complete, while for full neighborhood it would be restricted to East York and Toronto, it would bring it city-wide on what the city considers major streets.
Well that part is a win.
For example, that's the map for #Willowdale everything in yellow would be included (and red was already allowed)

#Willowdale tell your councillor Lily Cheng what you think of small retail stores in your neighborhood

The City of Toronto is reviewing how small-scale retail and services—like cafés, corner shops, and community spaces—can better serve residents in neighbourhoods. This work is part of the Expanding Housing Options in Neighbourhoods (EHON) initiative. You can review the report from staff to Planning and Housing Committee on Nov 30th, by clicking here. Your feedback will help Councillor Cheng’s office understand what types of neighbourhood retail and services matter most to Willowdale residents and where they should be located. This short survey will take about 5 minutes to complete.
@jarek @the5thColumnist @mayintoronto Willowdale has so many streets without sidewalk. Some of those street are even leading to a park!
And then in Don Valley North within Bayview Village neighborhood, found 2 instances of sidewalk stopping mid street. Can only imagine residents refusing them. How can they be allowed to refuse I don’t know.

Lily Cheng, NIMBY councillor of #Willowdale in Toronto went to South Korea.
What did she learn? She learned about sleek parking infrastructure. In South Korea! Speak about missing the forest for the trees
Also Toronto transit isn't randomly underdevelopped, it's something she can actually influence as a councillor. She's saying that as if it just happened and there's nothing we can do beside keeping parking in place.
