I just watched The Dead Zone. Great movie, but the ending just isn't believable. There's no way using a baby as a shield would damage a political career on the right.

Remember the Templars! (actually don't)

So, Chrétien cast himself in the fantasy role of a friend to the homeless and Ford... well, Tories gonna Tory.

Definitely the only problem

Of course there's a big dead zone in Jon Burnside country.

Crap. My third kid was conceived when I was thirty-seven. I hope she's not mine.

A young woman holding up a keychain over the big envelope it was shipped in, which is sitting on the huge quantity of stuffing in the giant box it came in.

That's a normal amount of packaging for a keychain, right?

Itinérance : poursuite de 1 M $ contre la Ville de Toronto Des citoyens poursuivent la Ville de Toronto à qui ils reprochent sa décision de faire construire, sans leur avis, un refuge pour sans-abri à Etobicoke.

These people are pure evil.

Thank you. Sorry, I wasn't trying to give you a job. But, very clear. Again, thanks.

At the other end of the gender divide, I don't know what these terms mean, and they've never offered to help me out with that. Could you throw some of that mansplaining my way, please?

I just picked up the DVD at a church sale. Now I'm all looking forward to goo. As one does.

Monday, Oct 6, 2025 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Victoria Village Public School Join me at my in-person Victoria Village Town Hall meeting. There will be a short presentation regarding the proposed bike lanes on Sloane Avenue, and then the meeting will be open to discuss any issues on your mind.

Anyone in Jon Burnside's Ward. There's a meeting about a bike lane. At the last town hall of his I went to, the nimby's were out in force, ranting against bike lanes and sidewalks. So, any help from decent people is appreciated.

Via Rail hits the brakes on nonstop Montreal-Toronto service pilot project Via Rail has hit the brakes on nonstop service on some trains travelling between Montréal–Toronto due to “operational constraints” with CN, according to the Crown corporation.

Translation: CN doesn't want it. The feds should just nationalize railway corridors between major cities and give passenger trains priority over freights.

REM : un autre retard pour les nouveaux tronçons L’antenne Deux-Montagnes du REM pourra se réaliser en novembre prochain, mais celle d’Anse-à-l’Orme, dans l'ouest de Montréal, attendra le printemps.

In Ontario, this wouldn't even be considered a delay.

This is how we fix the terminally slow Spadina streetcar We don't have to spend billions to fix one of Toronto's most important transit routes.

"If European cities can ban left turns on tram routes entirely, surely Toronto can do without a few."

Ideas on how to get #Toronto's molasses-slow Spadina streetcar running at respectable clip.

As an Anglo, I used to watch Leslie Roberts on the local Montréal news. I couldn't understand how that airhead got that job. It was really embarrassing, at times, as he struggled to think of things to say.

The Trans community BUILT @bsky.app -the least they could do was support and protect them. But neauxp! Duly noted @safety.bsky.app 🤬

Somebody's been reading my Nemo fan fiction.

And that's why... We don't take naps.

ATTN FELLOW CANADIANS:

An actual MP has created a petition to stop financial discrimination against adult creators by payment processors. You have to confirm your email but thats because its something that can actually be shown to parliament.

Did he ever get around to apologizing for his sexual assaults?

The eighties was truly the greatest decade

Jon Burnside absolutely will oppose.

Pedestrian walking in road because cyclist riding on sidewalk because car parked in bike lane TORONTO - Eyewitnesses today confirmed reports that a pedestrian was walking in the road because a cyclist was riding on the sidewalk because a car was parked in the bike lane.

I like him best because he's the one who seemed to get how silly the whole franchise is. Which, I guess, is the same thing.

Montréal | La rue Saint-Catherine Est deviendra piétonne à l’année La Ville compte profiter des travaux réalisés sur des conduites d’eau pour repenser l’aménagement de la rue Saint-Catherine Est. La mairesse Valérie Plante a annoncé vendredi qu’au terme de ces travau...

Omg, this is so great.

I will watch anything with Sharon Horgan.

"shower of arrows and tar?" I'm not going to read anything past that.
