WTAF. I spoke about this a few times before. People in many parts of West Asia/many Arab people have been wearing keffiyehs for CENTURIES. They represent many things, and yes -they do symbolize Palestinian resistance and solidarity -and if you have an issue with anyone wearing a keffiyeh in any space you're a genocidal apologist.
This is BEYOND ignorant and IS discrimination. I hope we see a class-action lawsuit that sues the provincial government for doing this/normalizing this because it's ILLEGAL. These politicians (especially the PC's -who were shouting no to overturn it and one of them saying they felt UNSAFE... the audacity) are just racist bigots.

Toronto city council says it has strengthened its short-term rental bylaw to crack down on operators who exploit regulatory loopholes.
Council is raising registration fees, increasing vetting of hosts and allowing for snap inspections through changes to the city's short-term rental bylaw. The city will also hire nearly two dozen more inspectors.
Council passed changes to the bylaw at a meeting on Thursday night.
Mayor Olivia Chow said on Friday that the bylaw amendments will help to address the city's housing crisis. She said the changes will allow legitimate users to rent out their homes while giving the city increased powers to crack down on speculators.
"Yesterday's motion actually achieved a fine balance. We're going to have more inspectors and we're closing loopholes," Chow said. [...]

Perhaps the funniest thing that could have happened lately was that this anticapitalist cafe and community space near my place was shutting down near the end of May - but because so many Texas and Florida conservatives celebrated it online, the place got a huge donation to keep operating

It's a great place. It functions mostly like a regular cafe but it has this free/pay what you want drip coffee for anyone who wants it, free bathroom use, and it stocks indie merch and books on antifascist, queer, leftist, socialist, indigenous topics. I've met a lot of awesome people there.

Its very existence enrages conservatives, and anarchocapitalists who tried to claim it only to be shown the middle finger by its anticapitalist owner, who is an all around nice dude (and a fellow Elden Ring fan)
If you can toss a coin to its continued operation, please do! Upon request from their followers on insta they opened a Gofundme. Even just a few dollars will be a huge help.

Students at a high school in York Region have been awarded perfect marks on their midterm exams in three subjects – not because of their academic performances however, but because they had no teacher. On Tuesday, York Catholic District School Board (YCDSB) confirmed with CTV News that it had given pupils at St. Maximilian Kolbe Catholic High School in Aurora, Ont. perfect marks on exams in two biology classes and one business class. "These classes have not had a permanent teacher for much of the semester due to a shortage of teachers specializing in the subject area, a spokesperson for the board told CTV News Toronto on Tuesday.

When I began my stand-up career in the late 1990s, most of my gigs were in the sordid dive bars of Parkdale in Toronto.
Today the neighborhood is completely gentrified, but back then Parkdale was an area you were supposed to stay clear of.
This is what the atmosphere looked like back then, when I'd take the streetcar from Kipling to Gladstone, to do shows at The Tennessee, Club OV's, and the Gladstone Hotel.
