I mean, if Stellantis and GM are both moving substantial production to the US (or considering same), exactly what auto jobs are we protecting with Chinese tariffs?

'JM will do all the nerdy public policy stuff' -@spaikin
- The Ontario Liberal campaign bus is revealed. The messaging is pretty clear.
- this really was the stupidest ~45 minutes of political analysis I think I've ever seen
- Love to live in Toronto, Ontario where the precise location of bike lanes is a policy priority for (checks notes) an MP from Calgary, Alberta
- Less shocked by Trump's tariff tweets than I am by the number of Canadians rushing to sanewash them. The amount of fentanyl that crosses the US-Canadian border is basically homeopathic! This isn't a serious demand! You don't have to be stupid in public!
- (whispers) nobody "removes a traffic lane" to build a bike lane, bike lanes are also traffic lanes because cyclists are also road users, we're just much more efficient users of urban space
- NEW: CycleToronto and other citizens have launched a Charter challenge of the Ford government's law to remove bike lanes. CT's executive director is not present at the Queen's Park announcement because... he was doored on Monday in a painted bike lane and is hospitalized.
- really can't overstate how nuts it is that "Canada sells the US lots of oil" is being cast as sinister somehowBaier: Trudeau said that your wish for Canada to become the 51st state is a real thing. Is it a real thing? Trump: Yeah it is
00:00 - Today in facts: Pierre Poilievre and the CPC have so far received 1,103,607 more votes in Ontario than Doug Ford did in February.
One couple at a voting station in Port Credit said they would rather not speak to American media. They then apologized three times.- Protect Ontario (by reversing our own prior actions) is becoming a bit of a theme this year#BREAKING - Concerned about sky high Blue Jay resale ticket prices, Premier Ford tells me he’s looking at potentially bringing in legislation to cap prices after his government scrapped such legislation in 2019. “I just don’t believe in one company controlling everything” he says
- NEW: Looks like CycleToronto won in court. Justice Schabas finds Ontario's law (AND version 2) to remove bike lanes infringe S7 of the Charter and is not saved by S1, in large part because the govt had no evidence to back up its claims.
- the toronto east york committee of adjustment collectively started vomiting uncontrollably at the sight of thisZero-setback house in Tokyo, designed by Haryu Wood Studio & Selma Masic. Three levels, family of four, and just 63 square meters in total area.
- special warrants during a spring election are how grandma's CPP cheque doesn't bounce, this is neither novel nor sinister do I get to tell Tobi how to run Shopify now or is this a one-way thing?Media: You got to dig in and explain what is going on here and how this is not done in bad faith right in the middle of an election and right after a record deficit. This looks bad.
