Another fun fact: Olivia Chow now has the record for the MOST VOTES (2026) earned by a winning Mayoral candidates in Toronto megacity history, and the LEAST VOTES (2023) earned by a winning candidate.
Fun fact: yesterday's preliminary voter turn out rate was the 3rd highest in the megacity era, trailing behind 2014 and 2010, and narrowly ahead of the first megacity election in 1998.

This is 100% right. We need nation building that doesn’t focus on enriching the oligarchy, but rather targets meaningful sustainability in terms of climate, biodiversity, & fulfilling jobs for people of all abilities. We must stop subsidizing dairy & beef, & start investing in transit & cycling.

We're preparing a report on the impact of the Conservative victory on BC First Nations (for knowledgekeepr.com). There are a lot of flashpoints for conflict with their policies. But it still seems manageable. UNTIL... you show the traditional territories of those nations. 1

Looking at this one result, it appears that the BC NDP voters who didn't show up this 2026 election, were content risking a Conservative majority, rather than flipping their votes Green which may have resulted in a minority they'd hold some power with. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremy_... #BCpoli

Carney is the Shock Doctrine in an expensive suit, & "the world's a dangerous place" is his thought terminating cliché. Therefore, according to Carneyism, we can't afford a liveable climate, or human rights, or privacy, or public goods, or anything but absolute surrender to oligarchs on all fronts.

Our First Nations traditional territory maps are progressing. We're likely a week away from completing our alpha build. This will replace the Native-Land.ca territory maps, which went offline earlier this year (though they have other maps still online). It'll go online at knowledgekeepr.com
