  1. A year goes by. Elections roll around. Purely coincidentally, suspicions that a development was turned down because neighbours, uh, ward voters, objected.

    Previously, the renaming of Plantation Road was raised by a pre-voter, and refused.

  4. Did you know that nearly half of working Canadians say their job is the most stressful part of their daily lives? 7 in 10 workers are worried about the psychological health and safety of their work. Burnout, chronic stress, harassment. This isn’t normal, and it isn’t OK. Just remember: it isn’t just you, and it isn’t “just part of the job.” Canada’s unions have your back, and we’re fighting to fix things.

  6. One year ago today.
    No winter isn’t over in #ldnont just yet. So still topical even if it is ‘warm’ today. But we have solved some cold weather housing problems just in time for Spring.

  9. As of this week, we have been living in #ldnont for ten years.

    The passage of time is strange: it feels like we just moved here and yet it also feels like we’ve been here forever. In some moments, I feel like I’m still a displaced resident of Toronto, and in many others, I feel like settled here, like this is where I’m supposed to be.

  12. I like this QRT/QRS trend idea, *EXCEPT* I've only been to five, and everyone I've seen live were shows I got into for free*. 😅 The Tea Party ⚰️ The Presidents of the USA 🍑 Counting Crows 🐦‍⬛ Feed Me 👹 Weird Al 🪗 * (Victoria Park #LdnOnt, Steam Dev Days, Intel event, Notch party, gift from my folks)

  17. Hey #ldnont! The city is gathering feedback on city parks, and I know a lot of you have thoughts to share. Submit them here: getinvolved.london.ca/talk-par

    Looking for inspiration? Check out this great article in Spacing on how to revitalize parks in Toronto: spacing.ca/toronto/2025/08/07/

  19. I know this #spacingmagazine article about revitalizing park space in the city is focused on Toronto, but there’s a lot other cities (like my #ldnont) can learn from it too. spacing.ca/toronto/2025/08/07/

  21. Yes, Canadians should have free access to insulin! It’s shocking that it so long to get this legislation. The idea of insulin came to Dr. Banting during the night, at his home in #LdnOnt. You can visit the house, a National Historic Site bantinghousenhs.ca/visit/

    Glia was started by people with roots in my #LdnOnt community and is a very interesting organization: glia.org/blogs/news/humanitari

    I trust Glia because I know some of the people involved, they're not some website I found somewhere. I have mad respect for Glia and the work that they do.

  26. This housing and homelessness epidemic in southwestern Ontario is putting my wife's coworkers in harm's way! I was parked outside their pharmacy charging my car, when I caught sight of this woman being hostile to staff as they kicked her out for shoplifting. Canada please fix! #CanPoli #LdnOnt

  27. A short scene from the "STOP THE GENOCIDE" Pots & pans demonstration today in London, Ontario on the 77th anniversary of the Nakba.

  29. I didn’t grab the best photos because it was cold and windy (and also because I’m not a great photographer), but in case anyone in #ldnont wanted to know, the cherry trees are blossoming brightly in Springbank Park near the Civic Garden Complex right now.

  32. One of the fun things about #ldnont in the federal election is how different the ridings are, even considering that 3 are urban and 2 are urban-rural.

    I'm still reasonably confident the NDP will retain Fanshawe, but what should be a slam-dunk riding is a nail-biter.

  33. Lots of good murals in #ldnont, but I’m always awed by this one on the side of The Grand.

  34. So I was on CBC Radio this morning talking about why the city of #ldnont needs to stop using X/Twitter and it seems to have gotten some traction. I don’t necessarily want to be the face of this movement, but I’m glad we’ve got people talking about it now.

  35. If anyone is interested, I wrote a letter to my councillor and the mayor of #ldnont to ask them to get off of X/Twitter: inthemargins.ca/london-stop-us
