Global News’ Ben Mulroney Shared a Video of Airstrikes. The Footage is Actually from a Video Game. The host of Global News’ West Block gets lost in a misinformation-driven fog of war as American and Israeli forces strike Iran

NEW FROM ME:

While US and Israeli forces launched strikes against Iran this weekend, Global News' The West Block host Ben Mulroney reposted video of fighter jets that had been miscaptioned as American F-15s attacking Iran

I double-checked. Ben was actually sharing footage from a video game

We need to ban prediction markets asap. It's absolutely ghoulish, rock bottom of humanity stuff.

@grahamisador.bsky.social , I expect to see your piece about doing this challenge within 30 days.

Do I have a bestselling play? No. But do I have a blurb on the back of a bestselling play? Apparently. Congrats to Yaga (a play, not a screenplay)! #theatre #theaTO

I complain about CBC, because it’s not perfect, and fair criticism is allowed and appropriate. But seriously, thank God for CBC in Canada. It needs to be protected.

Important to call lies out when there are lies. These are lies from a liar.

Matt Elliott: Why it will take Toronto 13 years and more than $50 million to recover from Doug Ford’s hasty speed camera ban Impulsive political decisions like the speed camera ban can have long-term impacts.

My @thestar.com column: Doug Ford’s snap decision to ban speed cameras could take $50 million and THIRTEEN YEARS for Toronto to deal with.

The premier promised there’d be immediate alternatives for road safety. The problem: those alternatives don’t really exist. www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

Here's my chat with @playcanpress.bsky.social about the epic surge in sales that followed the casting announcement:

We are the laughingstock of the world because of our moronic and psychotic president. Deservedly so.

Still time after the game to catch a matinee of You Always or Pride & Prejudice, Searching for Aimai, Eureka Day, Witch, Copperbelt, Summer & Smoke, People of the City, or Night at the Grand Guignol. Cheer for Canada then see some Canadian theatre!

This essential infrastructure needs to be part of the city’s snow‑removal plan Some bike lanes are used less than others. City hall needs to identify the busiest routes and to prioritize them for snow-clearing. That should be easy, given there are only

The clock reset w/ yesterday's storm, on how long 'til @toronto.ca clears priority #bikeTO routes. Sherbourne cycle track, which City's website says is cleared 12-24hrs after snowfall, & took 2+ weeks b4, is (again) impassable. But Martin Freeman Trail along Queens Quay was pristine this AM! #TOPoli

Just a regular reminder to please support your local theatre, café, bookstore, bakery, and library. We breathe life into these places when we support them.

Without us, they can't survive, and truthfully, without them, neither can we.

Last chance to catch Through The Eyes of God, You Always, White Rabbit Red Rabbit, Pride & Prejudice.
Closing Mar 1 are Searching for Aimai, Eureka Day, Witch & Copperbelt, while Summer & Smoke continues.
Opening are People of the City, Night at Grand Guignol, Love You Forever and More Munsch.

B/w @eldritchtheatre.bsky.social's silly/perverse ...GRAND GUGINOL, Coal Mine's clever/divisive EUREKA DAY (still tix left 4 next week's extension!), & Bad Dog Theatre's PEOPLE OF THE CITY (opened last night @factorytheatre.bsky.social), there's lot of comedic choices on #TheaTO stages RN. #ComedyTO

My partner and I are both from the US originally and we encountered a tax difficulty with an employer & finally, bereft of ideas, called CRA and they fixed it immediately and then asked "why didn't you call sooner?" and the real answer is "we're American and assumed the government wouldn't help" lol

Obsessed with the Mod Club name saga. New owners took it over, renamed it the Axis Club. Except everyone kept calling it the Mod Club, so it became the Axis Club (formerly the Mod Club). But that didn’t work either, so they changed it back to the Mod Club (formerly the Axis Club).

Peak Toronto.

A Canadian play has taken over Twitter. (Yes, some of us are still on that godforsaken site.)

Yaga has sold out on Amazon. There are Yaga memes in every other post. I couldn’t be more thrilled for Kat Sandler — and I can’t wait for the world to catch up with her brilliance.

The funny thing is Doug Ford says students shouldn't take basket weaving but his inherited wealth comes from making stickers.
