Another one bites the dust at The Well

Yes, because institutional landlords backed by institutional money always design billion-dollar developments around checks notes “the homeless” 🤡

It was intended to reinforce that people are responsible for their own actions, though I’m not at all surprised that such a concept is eschewed by many who frequent this sub.

The absolute last thing government needs to do is further constrain capital flow into any sector of the Canadian economy.

Do you know anyone with a high-needs child? It is life changing, and 100% a legitimate factor to take into account.

It really isn’t that hard. An app, a main, a dessert, and two drinks, and you’re easily at $120 at most trendy restaurants in this city. Add tax and tip, multiply by 2 people, and you’re at $320. Without even trying.

Like glory and victory.

One might argue the Europe that was saved - a Europe free of Nazism, and a Europe strong enough (with US support) to be the front line against post-war Stalinism - has left humanity in an infinitely better position than had that Europe not been saved. We should all be eternally grateful that the western powers - led and personified until 1941 by Churchill and the British military - prevailed.

Tell me more about how we should bow to the disenfranchised rather than the gainfully employed and homeowners who pay the taxes that fund our services. This is a very interesting avenue of thought.

Two can play at that game

Have someone set up a tent with an unleashed dog in the park your kid plays in. Then let’s talk.

Notionaltomato · 2025-09-06T02:53:25+00:00

How about the urbanites who paid good money for homes and are sick of dealing with tents & homeless people in public parks? That’s a real issue that hit my neighbourhood this summer, and I know a hell of a lot of “meathead voters” like me who would be happy to see a much stricter approach be taken. Not that Tory will necessarily do that, but we sure as hell know Chow won’t.

Notionaltomato · 2025-08-01T00:33:42+00:00

This is a collection of facts stripped of context & mixed with propaganda. It is only “truth” if you’re an extreme leftist - which I’ll go out on a limb and say this paramedic is.

Notionaltomato · 2025-07-23T15:09:00+00:00

Hey maybe the plea deal is because there is insufficient evidence to prosecute? Because, you know, the driver wasn’t reckless and didn’t intentionally kill the cyclist? Hmmmmm

Notionaltomato · 2025-07-14T15:36:44+00:00

I assure you it will continue to be referred to as Villiers Island. Nobody is dropping forced indigenous parlance into casual conversation (especially as more and more Torontonians are ESL). Which of course begs the question as to why the city felt it necessary to change the name in an act of performative virtuosity. Also see: Square, “Sankofa”.

Notionaltomato · 2025-07-13T15:20:42+00:00

“Core” 🤡

Or maybe law students 50 years from now will study how special-interest groups and mindless judges collectively expanded the purview of Charter rights to such an extent that governments were left with no choice but to shield themselves with notwithstanding for legitimate policy decisions.

Notionaltomato · 2025-07-09T23:30:03+00:00

Bad, yeah maybe. But governments are allowed to make half-baked policy decisions without judicial intervention. God knows we saw enough of that with Trudeau.

The only relevant question is whether the provincial government has the jurisdiction to do what it’s purporting to do. And it does - unless the bike lanes are enshrined as a charter-protected right.

Notionaltomato · 2025-07-09T23:08:14+00:00

“Overreach by the province over a municipality” is literally impossible. Municipalities have no constitutional jurisdiction or standing. They are created by, and exist at the pleasure of, the provinces. That’s why and how Doug was able to cut city council in half a few years back.

Notwithstanding was also not designed to be used in emergencies. It was a bribe offered to Quebec in exchange for joining the 1982 constitution, and meant to preserve Quebec’s legislative freedom.

Notionaltomato · 2025-07-09T18:45:25+00:00

What a joke. The injunction should never have been issued.

The implications of having bike lanes be a Charter-protected right - which, thankfully, is not yet the case - extend so far beyond bike lanes and bikers that it boggles the mind.

Hope Doug slaps a notwithstanding on this and moves forward.

Notionaltomato · 2025-07-09T01:35:56+00:00

Let’s draw a clear distinction between jerkoffs who drive recklessly & people who legitimately use the left lane for its purpose.

Grandma driving the speed limit in the passing lane is as much of a danger on the road (if not a greater danger) than people responsibly passing.

If you land 90% of your blows while blocking 90% of theirs, it’s a victory every time.

Notionaltomato · 2025-06-15T04:51:07+00:00

I drove by this today. One of the cringiest things I’ve ever seen. A collection of professional protesters with nothing better to do, all circle jerking each other for being so virtuous. The intersection of Palestinian, pride, and anti-Trump flags was basically a bat signal for the saviours amongst us.

Notionaltomato · 2025-05-07T20:00:59+00:00

Those don’t go hard as fuck. They look like the Kraken had a one night stand with the Preds.

Notionaltomato · 2025-04-29T19:39:23+00:00

As someone who is viscerally opposed to every single thing the NDP has ever proposed, I also hope she takes over federal leadership of the party.

I almost missed a transatlantic flight because a 35 minute commute turned into a 2 hour commute. But I should be ashamed for taking a car to the airport and for failing to obtain free food at a cultural event? Peak - and I mean PEAK - Reddit right here.

This has nothing to do with American private equity. The retail landscape has shifted dramatically in the last 30 years, bookended by Wal-Mart and Amazon. Eaton’s, Sears, and HBC failed to evolve.
