The @OntarioPCParty government’s latest policy backtrack — reversing unpopular UPX changes — is the fourth most-read @TorontoStar story today. Set a record for a flip-flop — only 34 hours from announcement to U-turn. #onpoli #topoli thestar.com/news/gta/ontar…
@cityofhamilton is a fantastic city with amazing opportunities to enhance quality of life, affordable family homes and economic vitality inside its borders...but only if it does not lose it all to the billionaire sprawl developers and @fordnation #stopsprawl

#MEDIA: Today’s announcement that the federal impact assessment of #Highway413 has been discontinued underlines the urgent need for federal government to swiftly introduce an updated #ImpactAssessmentAct and re-designate the highway. Full statement 🔽 environmentaldefence.ca/2024/04/15/fed…
#ONpoli This was the kijiji ad for the $500 homeless encampment that Doug Ford's Minister of the Environment referred people too:
My new thoughts are same as the old thoughts. A bunch of upgrades on the "Kitchener Line" but nothing for, you know, KITCHENER. I don't know why residents of Waterloo Region continue to be ignored by these transit announcements. Do we need to yell louder? It's embarrassing.

Wow! @PrabSarkaria's spin has been in overdrive, trying to misrepresent today's Canada-Ontario MOU as some deal to let 413 go ahead without impact assessment. NO! The MOU plainly preserves the right to re-designate under the updated Act, as expected. 1/2 environmentaldefence.ca/2024/04/15/fed…

The 413 is totally about making some very rich land speculators even richer. The 407 is an underused asset that should be leveraged to move traffic off of the 401. End of story.

Ontario is under attack and the Federal Government should quickly re-designate Highway 413 for Impact Assessment under an updated Impact Assessment Act. environmentaldefence.ca/2024/04/15/fed… via @envirodefence #Stopthe413 #StopSprawl
This comparison blew my mind. CO₂ per capita in the UK v.s. Canada. Each Canadian is 3x as wasteful as the British right now 🤯
If you're concerned that this MOU-which does not affect the re-designation of Highway 413 for federal Impact Assessment-presages an intention NOT to re-designate, the best thing to do is keep up the pressure on MPs. Start w @envirodefence's online action! act.environmentaldefence.ca/page/141037/ac…

Premier Doug Ford, after making a GO Transit announcement in Milton, denies that this announcement has anything to do with the upcoming byelection in Milton. #onpoli
Pardon moi? Ford overruled Halton’s Official Plan voted by a MAJORITY of democratically elected councillors. No one wants costly sprawl except a small minority including Mayor Krantz, Zeeshan Hamid, (now PC candidate), and a few sprawl speculators.

Lots of new trips on the Kitchener Line, but nothing for K/W. Still can't take a train to a weekend Jays/TFC game without a bus first. Too bad I miss @farwell_WR on City News. Would love to hear his thoughts on this.
