Wildfire smoke can be like a wall. This morning a 270 point AQI swing in east Toronto between 7 and 11am from a choking 287 down to a lovely 17. It will be back though. Currently 231 in Mississauga. @shawnmicallef.bsky.social

Hilarious deniable innuendo in the Queens Park press gallery stories about the Ford government's hotel expense scandal. #ONpoli
AQI of 583 in Toronto we are so close to 600 so close I'm sure we can do it. The big leagues of poor air quality in federal Minister of the Environment Julie Dabrusin's riding. Beijing during a Gobi sandstorm in 2006 levels. We can do it!! @mark-carney.bsky.social @juliedabrusin.bsky.social
Toronto is working hard to keep pace but we aren't quite there yet. Once Doug Ford's gas plants fire up it might get us over the hump though.
AQI of 525 we are absolutely killing it here in the Toronto riding of federal Minister of the Environment Julie Dabrusin! Killing it! Can we make it to 600? Let's build more pipelines, data centres, gas plants & highways to find out! @mark-carney.bsky.social @juliedabrusin.bsky.social
AQI of 475 is normal & good. The summer air in Toronto has always had a pleasant smoky scent. The smell of your childhood. Let's get those pipelines built, data centres slopping, and gas plants firing! Do avoid the outdoors & wear a mask though. @mark-carney.bsky.social @juliedabrusin.bsky.social
"The world wants more wildfire smoke from Canada. Our MOU with Alberta will unlock those opportunities by increasing emissions — and create lasting lung damage for Canadians."
Mon Saguenay Dudes papier-mâché melts in 35C temperatures are you sure you are ready for your date with Jack White in Toronto tonight? #anginedepoitrine
From the slopes of Zermatt to the sails of Lago di Como to the beaches of Biarritz to the spas of Baden Baden, to the courtside seats of Roland Garros, to the quarter finals of the World Cup, no one has ever European'd harder than Swiss men's team coach Murat Yakin.
International Space Station in the House! Or more accurately, passing over Toronto 10 minutes ago. Seen thanks to directions from @rudydotca.bsky.social
In its natural habitat the Wild Canadian Toy Poodle, when a larger predator threatens, will snarl viciously at it in an effort to buy time until other members of the pack come to fight off the intruder in numbers.
Next wave of Doug Ford taxpayer funded AI generated ads have arrived with his taxpayer funded Alberta to Ontario pipeline pipedream getting three pages of propaganda in the @theglobeandmail.com this morning. Burning your planet on your dime because the private sector won't touch this turkey either.
On my third WC game and bar of the day two of my great passions collide - football and Jason Voorhees.
Kawhi may be back but if so I've got a few things to get off my chest.....
Hey kids look it's a red milkweed beetle on the milkweed. Let's go have a closer look. Aiiiyyeeeeeeeee!
FORMA 44. Monthly(esque) time lapse thread of construction of Frank Gehry's FORMA buildings on King St W in Toronto. Not proceeding fast, but proceeding nonetheless. Building 1 up to about 44 floors but it's difficult to count precisely - cut me some slack. 15? 🧵
This makes all those November and March #CanMNT night games at BMO Field by the lake in Toronto all worth it baby! @thevoyageurs.bsky.social @canadasoccer.bsky.social
