Least accurate sentence about Vancouver I have ever read.
They’re a city who pretends to be green while driving EVERYWHERE.
They have a housing AND talent shortage because they refuse to change AT ALL
It feels cute for those who can afford to be there

My wife and I had a chance to spend a few days in Vancouver last year and let me tell you…
This city feels like it’s from an alternate reality where the people don’t prioritize greed and selfishness over empathy and community.
We went home incredibly jealous of… well, everything.

It’s really important that #Vancouver’s Downtown Business Association, who were originally against bike-lanes, are now among their most vigourous supporters, because of ACTUAL EVIDENCE that they’re better for downtown business than any street parking they replaced.
Safe bike-lanes mean business.

Canadian multimillionaire and Shark Tank guy Kevin O'Leary went on TV to say he's upset Zohran won't talk to him: "I and others who invest in real estate have tried to get a meeting to figure out what's rhetoric and what's policy. So far for me it's been crickets."

It’s hard to believe but there was a cartoon about an immigrant mouse and it was seen as totally fine and not controversial and not woke because it was an aspirational and nice thing about America that people could come here and find a better life

we can chalk it up to youth and inexperience but the biggest mistake the mamdani campaign made was winning by 8.8% and not 1.5%, which is the margin needed for the media to say it’s a total mandate

I hope Toronto’s politicos learn:
Run a Mayoral candidate who actually likes the city
Not one whose platform is vengeance upon it
But I know somehow some fringe candidate will try to get elected on deleting my personal safety.

Lesson to Ontario liberals as they search for someone again
Zohran Mamdani overcoming a nationwide smear campaign from both sides of the establishment once again proves that there is no substitute for simply being the person you say you are.

The last month of the anti-Mamdani campaign was an absolutely shameful undertaking, an attempt to rip the city and Democratic coalition apart and I'm very happy to see it failed.

So, I was sitting on this weird bit of trivia for fear of jinxing, but that was the very rare instance in which a Toronto team made it to the finals and didn’t win.
