We are shocked and appalled of the attack on IDF Foods at Petrolia and Steeles. This is a hate motivated attack on a Jewish owned business. Its links to the anti Israel mob are confirmed with graffiti on the wall. This escalation of lawlessness in #Toronto must come to an end.

Happy to see this move ahead! E-assist cargo bikes can be a game changer both downtown and in the suburbs. Shifting to zero emissions deliveries while providing the flexibility of a bicycle could be a boon for businesses and consumers. #BikeTO #cargobikes #ClimateCrisis

In recent days, I've been Tweeting that virulent antisemite and self-described "anti-racism expert" Laith Marouf was paid 470$/day by Justin Trudeau's Liberal government. It turns out the correct figure is more than triple that—about $1,500/day. @jonkay regrets the error.

Torontonians deserve more options for travelling around the city. When we have a dependable and unified #cycling network, we ease the strain on the mass-mode of transportation, especially during a pandemic. 1/2
