- 2022年加拿大有超过10万辆车被盗，人均被盗车辆位居世界前列

- 国际刑警组织将加拿大列为世界上被盗车辆的“主要来源国”之一

- 高回报、轻刑罚、海关来不及抓的总体环境使得偷盗团伙趋之若鹜

My colleague Mitchell & partner just escorted a family of lost geese to the lake.

Safely navigating 2km of downtown #Toronto took 2 hours.

At one point, police stepped in to block traffic.

Strangers jumped in to help too.

He jokes: at @citizenlab we don't just help humans!

La meva #CançóDelDia per al diumenge 1 de setembre és aquesta de #TheCommoners #Toronto #RootsRock #SouthernRock 🙆🏿‍♂️!

I am attempting a small #fediverse experiment. Focusing on #Toronto people, institutions and groups, I am asking #Threads users to enable fediverse sharing.

As much as I’d love refugees from Xhitter come directly to Mastodon, enabling fediverse sharing seems like the next best option if they go to Threads or Bluesky.

This is #YongeDundasSquare, the #TimesSquare of #Toronto (or Times Square is the Yonge-Dundas Square of #NewYorkCity, to fix our perspective away from the #USA)

What we see here is an #advertisement attempting to sell a product

You do that in #advertising by appealing to a feeling or thought the audience has

And what the #ad is appealing to here is a direct result of a #political movement in the USA called "Make #America Great Again" aka #MAGA:

I wonder how that's going?

Finally you can find information about protests and rallies in #Toronto without having to belong to a fascist social media platform where inexplicably everyone is doing the organizing. Find it and more information at @ShowUpToronto! #TOPoli #ONPoli

If anyone in #Toronto is looking for a sweet #cat boy in need of a new home, consider Marcelo! He is 2.5 year old. His current people are doing a long distance move and are unable to bring him with them.

I don’t know his current family, but can relay any questions you have to my friend who does.

Did you know that the Toronto Zoo used to run a monorail (ish)?

The 5.6km transit system closed down in 1994. However the concrete structure that supported the rail is still around in the middle of the forest near Scarborough/Rouge Park.

I knew it was reachable because of an old reddit post and also because we can see it from Google Maps.

But I didn't know "how" to get there. So with a few friends we decided to find out

Hopefully this will be a timeline cleanser for some today. Just got back from the Toronto International Jazz Festival. Took a chance and went to what ended up being a sold out concert of this artist: Afrooj Aftab. It was a delightful event. What a great voice. The link below is to her Tiny Desk performance on NPR. Enjoy. Direct link: https://youtu.be/ZUYJ8_tBSSQ
