OMG Has anyone shown this to @brianlilley yet? Humber College & Finch West stations are at Highway 27 & Keele Street respectively. I mean that almost makes as much sense as TMU station being at Dundas St. The conspiracy has been broken. The TTC will sometimes name the street đ€Ż
You can't get dumber than this. Taking the name Dundas off the name of Dundas station because of fake slavery claims and then leaving Dundas on the sign of the renamed station. https://t.co/OpBOSTi6sm

This renaming only cost $1 dollar because utilizing @rpoconnorâs expert math skills that says, checking notes âall $400k went in changing Dundas Street Station to TMU.â This is a bargain. Look out for more miss-ed information from the cityâs RyGuy. Always giving us FACTS LOL
Renaming Dundas subway station to TMU will cost the Toronto public $400,000 in new transit maps alone - yet the new station signs still read "Dundas", presumably because "TMU" is geographically meaningless to most transit users. Great job, City Council!

The City of Toronto is rolling out a revised and expansive land acknowledgement that includes terms like âextractive violencesâ and âland reparations.â This revised acknowledgement will be part of the City of Torontoâs mandatory equity training for public employees. Do you

The Distillery Winter Village is an overpriced, overcrowded mess. The only thing it represents is the over-commercialization and greed of the holidays. At over $18 per adult just to enter, this is not a realistic family outing for Canadians who are struggling to make ends meet,

The renaming of Torontoâs Dundas subway station to TMU is another reminder of why historical decisions require more than symbolism â they require substance. The impetus to remove the Dundas name arose from the misguided and historically naive suggestion that Henry Dundas

Yikes @rpoconnor seeing his $400k claim crashing and burning (I guess the bots RTâing arenât enough) The unhoused isnât a failure of the TTC. When did the TTC become a housing agency? Come on Ryan keep up. If youâre going to attack the system at least come with the right fact.
More Toronto subway adventures as the car is in the shop! City Council blows $400,000 on new maps which read "TMU Dundas St." instead of "Dundas" (because that name was cancelled) yet has no resources to address those living on the subway or to stop riders from urinating on it.

This is Twitter. I come to watch you snowflakes bath in your own self doubt & predetermined uselessness. The reverse trolling of your MagaNorth mindset makes for a bit of amusement. Enjoy trying not to be to woke in your endless blathering to one another LOL Cc: @brianlilley

Saving All of This!
Bradford was on council when this process began in 2021, and voted for it. Chow wasn't. She also hasn't spent any political capital on this - it's embarrassing you've tried to make it into a scandal when it isn't - the maps have to be updated for openings of Lines 5 and 6, anyway

Wait everyone! @rpoconnor didnât bother reading what was in the report and thought the total cost of just the sign change to TMU would be $400k? lol Wow. Just wow. Nothing to see here. Just pure unadulterated shame to adults everywhere. https://t.co/zTSPiS1tWZ

Yes, let's change the name of everything, even based on false pretences. What's the big deal? Other than the massive costs. https://t.co/8pTfIuoFfb

Oh boy @integrity_to @YDSquare looks like your campaign has failed, once again. What are you going to do?
Olivia Chow speaks on Dundas Square. If this still bothers you (as it should), youâre just âobsessed with itâ according to our mayor. đ„: @cantbcensored

AI is an effective tool for political commentary. Itâs no different than the old political cartoons you see in newspapers. Get with the times, or stay behind. Thank you for sharing our position.

Yes @brianlilley b/c police offices & crossing guards work for free in our city. đ€Ż Itâs so diabolically funny that if drivers stopped speeding our streets would be safer for vulnerable road users so we wouldnât need speed cameras to pay for additional police & crossing guards.
So not about safety, all about revenue generation.

This week City Council will vote on the proposed Neighbourhood Retail Plan which is the most transformative zoning change in 70 years. It will allow retail businesses to open on interior residential streets across Toronto. Gord Perks and Josh Matlow are big proponents of this
