A short story illustrating why police reform is extremely difficult in Toronto & politicians don't want to touch it. 52 Division on Dundas W has a public plaza in front of it. Trees, planters, benches. My OCAD students once did a project in it. Public. Could use a touch of love.

It is not radical to ask if your city should be spending less on policing and more on other services. In Toronto, policing is the largest chunk of your property tax bill — and it’s not even close. (Source: this @LaurenPelley breakdown of 2019 figures cbc.ca/news/canada/to…)

This left me fuming. After the week we’ve had, it infuriates me that racists continue to act with no consequence. Faiza is too classy to name them, but for those wanting to avoid this place, I’ll say it happened at Pizza Rustica. His response when confronted:“It’s not a big deal”

My spirit is all the way down.
While reporting on a story about a young black man murdered in Toronto, we were interviewing an employee of a shop. When the owner/manager(?) accosted us & another reporter, telling us to leave. Also saying: “I don’t want these N***ers coming here”

Whole Foods has just fired Katie Doan, a worker who was keeping track of how many employees got sick with COVID-19. Another important scoop by @LaurenKGurley.

And now let’s add 1968, but George Wallace is somehow president.

We've experienced parts of this before, just never all at once.
As others noted, it's like the Spanish flu of 1918 and the stock market crash of 1929 at the same time, but overseen by Harding's total incompetence plus Nixon's pettiness and paranoia.
It's like Disaster Voltron.

THREAD 1/11 In Russia, the pandemic has wrong-footed both the opposition and the authorities. His supporters expected a strong show of leadership that never came; his detractors expected a display of mendacity and cruelty that Putin forwent fam.ag/2X5d6AU

And why did Japan do so well without a lockdown and so little testing?
Masks.
They gave masks out to 50 million households. An expert panel believes this was the main reason for their success.

The success of Japan with a *unique strategy*, emphasizing attention to super-spreader venues and the 3 C's (closed spaces, crowds, and close-contact settings). Little testing, no lockdown.
