This isn’t quite accurate - cargo ships don’t sail empty. Instead, carriers park ships and reduce capacity. Like a bus line running less frequently and skipping stops.
Just a total disaster waiting to happen. 40% of cargo ships leaving China for the U.S. were empty today. Empty shelves coming to you soon.

Four years ago, @kahowlett and I co-wrote a 10,000-word piece about a political fixer and his undocumented role in several Ontario scandals. Much to our surprise, he's back, and involved in the campaign of Toronto's previous budget chief: theglobeandmail.com/canada/a…

it’s been 3 months since raheem’s disappearance and there have been no conclusive/critical updates of his whereabouts by police. i call on everyone who scrolls by this to rt or rt again if u already have, please.
TORONTO & GTA: please keep a watchful eye out for my brother. if any of you could print a couple of these posters and put them up them in your neighbourhoods, that would be extremely helpful. let’s bring our boy home safely ❤️

I hope that @KeringGroup and @LVMH will step up when the Italian Government won’t, stop exporting to Russia, and prioritize human lives over handbags. #IStandWithUkraine
Italian prime minister Mario Draghi successfully secured a carve out for Italian luxury goods from the EU's package of economic sanctions against Nato, EU dip tells me. 'Apparently selling Gucci loafers to oligarchs is more of a priority than hitting back at Putin,' source adds.

Current process = buyers can’t see competing offers and also don’t know why an offer was rejected (sellers don’t always sell to highest offer)
Have just gone though the black hole of a bidding process to buy a house, auctions would be much more transparent and equitable. #Elxn44

I’m thinking of all the families with young children in Thorncliff park who now can’t access playgrounds and have little other green space. I wish that Ford thought more about the less fortunate.

Wowee love a dog whistle attempt at distracting us from *lack of paid sick days *vaccine rollout disaster *not making schools safe *treating factory & healthcare workers like they're disposable *ramming through a bunch of environmental disasters while we all cope with the above
We are into a third wave of COVID-19, a wave being driven by new variants that made their way through our borders. The number of positive cases involving variants has gone up more than 10% in the last week alone. We need to do whatever it takes to get this virus under control.

Why wait? Import now and stage across Canada, so vaccinations can begin on approval. The AZ vaccine has a 6 month shelf life.
PMO now says Trudeau misspoke when he said 20 M AstraZeneca were promised by end of June. PMO says the 20 M AZ doses will arrive between approval and the end of September, with delivery scheduled confirmed once vaccine is approved.

It’s galling that @RodPhillips01 takes a trip abroad while @fordnation wants to shut down airports. So much for caucus unity. #onpoli

Lizzo at the Velvet Underground in Toronto in 2016. The best live performance I’ve ever seen.
What’s the biggest music act you’ve seen at the smallest venue?
