@AndreaMicieli @anthonyfurey I've been viewing #PlowTO for most of yesterday evening and into this morning. The Priority is moving people safely. Where is this? What is the snow removal route for this street? I'm unsure how one random picture tells the story of the whole city.

RT @OhUrbanity: "We never agreed that Canada would not be the 51st state." This is abusive ex behaviour.

Hi @JamesBlairUSA, Canada joining the United States as the 51st state is pure Science Fiction. We’re good. We’re Canada! #OhCanada
Pleasant meeting with the Premiers. To be clear, we never agreed that Canada would not be the 51st state. We only agreed to share Premier Eby’s comments. Further, we said the best way to understand President Trump’s position is to take what he says at face value. @SergioGor

No no @sarahcstock you've got it all wrong. #Canada doesn't care what you have to say! We already beat the racists that couldn't handle this radical change. You are of course allowed to hang with those bottom feeders. The rest of us will continue forward!
I don’t care what anyone says, an RCMP officer wearing a turban will never look Canadian to me. It’s a symbol of foreign infiltration.

Well now it makes sense why @peter_tabuns and the @tdndp aren't recognizing #BlackHistoryMonth in #TorontoDanforth "@Google Calendar no longer includes start of Black History Month, Pride Month" Blame @googlecanada! Cc: @CABR_Toronto @tdsb_cebsa
