Things I didn’t know would happen when I woke up this morning:
Almost sat on a raccoon today.
#Toronto

Was not on my bingo card, but the federal/provincial and city of Toronto agrees for funding of the #Waterfront East project!
Toronto is getting a new streetcar lane
#topoli #toronto

Never forget, #Toronto, you're not stuck in traffic because there are too many damn cars in this city. And this week you're not stuck because of record snowfall clogging roads. (As an aside, if you're complaining about snow on the roads, have you had a look at our sidewalks recently?) No, you're sitting there like a fool because of bike lanes.

Happy 192nd #Toronto 🥳

Any #toronto #sunra fans looking for others? I have a feeling today at 1pm may offer hope:

I'm in a pod. Which is the new "I'm on a boat." #toronto #tpl #referencelibrary

There was an explosion fire downtown #Toronto but no details yet
Might be construction related

As bad as it is out there, and it's quite nice if you're in no hurry, #Toronto basically dodged a bullet with this monster.
25-40cm of Snow Possible Around Toronto on Sunday as Widespread Snowstorm Threatens Travel Across Southern Ontario

I know the bar is pretty low in Ontario, but Toronto Line 5 Eglington is a pretty ok metro!
The stations are exceptionally cavernous and empty. Hardly any bicycle parking or coffee shops or connections to the shopping centres or residential buildings. Just hallways for elephants. Why?
Certainly way better than bringing a personal automobile into this area though. I'm definitely never doing that again.

Quite a website banner header on #ttc website. It keeps growing!
Just stay home seems to be the advice today

It's disasters and infrastructure week in my "History of Here," a course focused on #Mississauga and #Toronto. So we'll discuss the largest pre-Katrina peacetime evacuation in North America - the Mississauga train derailment.
As usual, I'll begin class with some music from the period a…

Today I learned very sad news: legendary #Toronto bassoonist #jeffBurke has left the planet. Jeff lived as a monk in service of the goddess Music, in all her forms and genres. When #SunRa came to town, he ask…

Some USA Olympic Hockey players playing for Canadian teams are in for a rough ride... and if you know enough about hockey and US players, you'll be able to guess who's on top of the shit list.
But this is the part that is actually important:
“We know how this story ends,” said the writer Jennifer Weiner. “The male athletes are flying private, back to their seven-figure NHL paycheques and a White House rolling out the red carpet. The women are flying coach, back to the grind, to a league that barely pays them to play. The men, celebrated. The women, mocked.”
I'm glad the #Canucks traded Hughes, if only because it would have been extremely awkward, and possibly downright hostile.

The City of Toronto’s Skate Lending Library, in partnership with Desjardins Financial Group, brings free ice skates and helmet rentals to outdoor rinks in Toronto. Whether you’re taking your first glide on the ice or a seasoned professional, we’re aiming to make skating accessible to all. Check the schedule on this page and let’s lace up together for some winter fun.
Skate Lending Library locations also have skate aids for use that help with balancing on the ice while learning how to skate.

Other than being completely devoid of culture or eateries the station vibe is very similar to Montreal. Just... sterile. It's hard to imagine meeting someone in one.
I love the absence of tire dust though. Long live rails.

This rumour just in: after 60 years, Steve's Music Store is closing? #Toronto

Snow day when living on an elevated floor in a condo is wonderful.
Everything is white, hardly any car in sight, it's like the city is closing for the day. Feels very peaceful

20.2°C in #Toronto but I'm not stowing my winter boots just yet. The Rule here in southern Canada is "Nothing goes into the ground before the May-24!" ¹ and in my years I've seen many attempts to challenge it, none succeeded.
¹ annual celebration of the first day of barbecue, named after the unique way we package our beer. Falls on the monday near the birthday of that monarch with the doily on her head.

I have no idea how this film came to be called
H.G. Wells' The Shape of Things to Come but I will say how nice it was to see the old #Toronto #OntarioPlace as it was and especially the #BuckminsterFuller designed but sadly overbuilt (bucky said) dome, and, well, maybe I'd rather remember it destroyed by an evil megalomaniacal technocrat. #monsterdon material for sure
