Wow!
There’s a new mural in Cabbagetown. 🍁 Ecology of Us, a new 22-storey mural by Jarus at 140 Carlton St., transforms a building into a tribute to the maple tree that stood nearby in Allan Gardens. This City of Toronto, StreetARToronto mural advances reconciliation, diversity, equity and inclusion through public art, mentorship and community engagement, building more welcoming streets and a shared sense of belonging.🌳🎨 📸Jason Pinney

Maintain the secrecy of the vote. Voters cannot take photos or videos of their ballot or show their marked ballot to any person revealing how they voted. This is in the Municipal Elections Act, 1996. #TOVotes26 #TorontoVotes2026

A truck loaded with thousands of copies of Roget's Thesaurus spilled its load leaving Toronto. Witnesses were stunned, startled, aghast, stupefied, confused, shocked, rattled, paralyzed, dazed, bewildered, surprised, dumbfounded, flabbergasted, confounded, astonished, and numbed.

A lot of people speculating on what this increase in early voters might mean in terms of the final result but I haven’t seen anyone note the influence that this weekend’s Kids Vote may have had on turnout. These may just be parents who took their kids to vote & did so as well.
The City of Toronto says turnout is dramatically up at advance voting for the 2026 municipal election. This year, 222,550 people voted early. That compares to: 2023 – 129,745 votes 2022 – 115,911 votes 2018 – 124,299 votes 2014 – 161,147 votes #ToPoli

🧵 I want to show you something Toronto has quietly built on Ookwemin Minising, because I think it says something about how we think of public space. This is the Waterfront Neighbourhood Space. And the entire premise is remarkably simple: Public space should have people in it.

This is the scene in my sister’s hood at Downsview Park, Warren. She was scared for her life.

The name Lake Ontario comes from the Wendat word Ontari’io, which, appropriately, means “the lake is beautiful, the lake is big”. The name is more than 400 years old, predating both the Confederation of Canada and the Declaration of Independence of the United States of America. We know that America is changing. Their trading relationships, their foreign policies, their national monuments, their hydronyms. Canadians also know that naming reality means calling it Lake Ontario – then, now and always.

I was given my name by the Iroquois Nation many hundreds of years ago. By 1660 my name was printed on maps by the Europeans as they accepted the Native name which means Beautiful waters. In 1867 the Canadian government decided to use my name for their providence.
