I just discovered something cool I wanted to share.
If you live in or near Toronto and need free food or know someone who does, this website has collected a long list of soup kitchens, community fridges, meal programs, food banks, and other places that can help:

What are some good volunteering activities for a group of kids ages 8 or so +?
I'm part of two martial arts groups and I want to get the kids involved in group volunteering. Helping those less able is actually a core tenant of a lot of martial arts schools like Wing Chun.
My kids are at an age where it's time to get involved. Any ideas for group volunteering activities for a group of able bodied kids who definitely have lots of energy? We can probably put together teams of 6-12 kids for various activities.
I was thinking about sorting and delivery the Toronto Star boxes over the holidays. I already reached out to them. Other ideas welcome

A huge congratulations to Olivia Chow and the incredible slate of progressive councillors elected in Toronto tonight.
This win goes beyond any one person or campaign — it’s the result of years of movements organizing together, from tenant unions to climate activists, migrant rights advocates and those on the front lines of harm reduction. You mobilized and knocked on every last door to make this happen.
Tonight, you’ve secured a better future for Toronto together.

Connecting Doug Ford dots. 🤔
Eliminate bike lanes so self driving cars can be trained on Toronto's winter roads? Am I crazy for thinking this? ⚠️ Cyclists Beware!
"Waymo is coming to Toronto. But the road to get there will be an often snow-covered one — and experts say that will take time and training data to overcome."

You may say it's a conspiracy theory but Waymo is arriving in Toronto and we have this master plan to dismantle our bike lanes happening at the same time
Waymo has issues with San Francisco bike lanes https://futurism.com/future-society/waymo-bike-lanes-traffic
We start removing our bike lanes in #toronto the same day Waymo puts their first cars in the streets for testing (plan to rollout by 2028)
Yes I am suspicious AF #waymo #ontario #biketooter #onpoli

There's a giant NDA up as a Nuit Blanche art installation, calling out the silencing of curators and artists who've spoken critically of Israel. It's in the alley off Spadina south of Richmond leading to Cinecycle. By No Arms in the Arts.
The protest artwork highlights concerns in the art community about censorship and the professional repercussions faced by artists and cultural workers who express their views opposing Israel's genocide.

Raccoon Greetings for Raccoon Appreciation Day! This is a portrait of a former neighbour who showed up at my back door like this, to enquire as to where I had moved the compost bin. So I took his photo and made a print.
Toronto belongs to the raccoons. They just let us live here because we have good snacks.

For those of you following #DougFord 's efforts to rip out the bicycle lanes in #Toronto, this is an interesting article indeed about #Ontario's RFP for the project.
EXCLUSIVE: Inside the contract to rip out Toronto’s bike lanes
Spacing obtained the RFP for the Ford government's bike lane removal, and it looks even worse than thought

Gather 'round children let me tell you of the grand year 2012 and our obsession with tiles
And I was definitely all for it at the time, with my Windows 8 tablet, Windows 8 lappie, and Nokia Lumia Windows Phone!

Some of the coolest #Toronto city election swag is being produced by community activist candidate Jenny Worden in the Beaches East York ward.
Everyone in this town knows these critters well. :)
