This is going to be a huge help for home video editors.

My understanding is the political parties in Canada (using a base voter list provided to them by Elections Canada) have substantial unregulated databases on voters.

Interesting comment. So, nobody of either gender likes you and nobody can tell you why they don’t like you?

The two lobby groups (Build Canada and Canada Spends) are quite different from each other and completely different from DOGE (the former United States Digital Service). It’s like comparing Habitat for Humanity to the CMHC or something. If I met someone who thought that these things were “all the same”, I’d assume they’re pretty basic and one of those Canadians who watches too much US news. Like here is Build Canada advocating for Building rental housing stock and High Speed Rail We are luckily to live in a different country with our own lobby groups, government structures and problems. We can actually make decisions about what we think of them based on better information than if we think they’re like some weird government department that a billionaire in a neighbouring country hijacked.

The hospitable thing is true, kind of happens automatically if you’re new to activities. You’re often pretty bad so being nice is a good way to offer something back to the group while you’re learning. There’s a language barrier where I live that makes relaxed chit-chat with strangers extremely difficult. At the moment I’m just not thinking about it, always seems like things work out if you’re in an environment where you’re meeting lots of people each week.

I agreed with this until I started doing lots of “go outside” stuff and realized there was a bit of nuance. Decided pretty quickly that I’d keep the dating separate from sports/activities because I really enjoy them and things get weird if you treat it like a dating pool. Now I somehow have to work up the courage to talk to someone without a contrived activity bringing us together.

I’m about to try this diet to get to the bottom of it, but I think onions/garlic seem to be a problem. It’s not that bad a condition, but I’d like to at least be able to know when I’m signing up for indigestion.

I’ve gotten no response from them after a couple of days

This is not sufficient for your conclusion given the burden of proof required for this claim. And, to be clear, you are claiming that: This organization controlled by the municipality is SELLING your email address. Your proof is a screenshot with the addressed censored. Not that there was a leak, not that someone guessed this handle, not that PBSC got hacked, not that you typed the wrong handle into a form. I can run this past bixi for you if you DM me your address, but you’re assuming a lot and I would bet not just MAGA but real coins that you’re wrong about bixi selling your info.

The TLDR is that the city isn’t focusing on getting costs down on things that have produced good (Metro) or promising (Automated Light Rail) results. It is focusing on things that didn’t end up being great investments (BRT) or that we haven’t done (Trams).

Based on the experience in Quebec City, trams are expensive AF to build here. RapidBus is something the city should look into, it sits between a BRT and a buslane. Easy to roll out quickly. When routes hit capacity, skip the tram and go straight to metro/REM.

“Can’t do a congestion charge until…” Is another I’ve heard lately

Literally a blog post written by a public transit supporter.

Wow. Nice. Congestion charges literally go towards improving transit. Also government in Canada are already spending record amounts on building transit. If you need to go into a zone that would have a congestion charge in Canada (Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver) you would have at least a park and ride option.

Blâmer les promoteurs pour les prix élevés des logements, c’est comme blâmer les agriculteurs pour les prix élevés des denrées alimentaires. Lorsque l’on ne construit pas suffisamment de logements pour 10 ans, 500 pi carrés est luxueux. https://video.canadiancivil.com/w/4LSG3iZpRuShJqYhRLFcdG

It’s not a news story, it’s the most recent local analysis of the idea if people want to read up on it.

This is awesome and confirms what I’ve been hoping, although it looks like the big dummy is being discontinued so I’ll probably have to move quick if I want one new. I have a couple of questions that it seems you’d have the answers to: Q) I think I know the answer from reading your blog, but if you didn’t own any cargo bike already, would you buy a Big Dummy or would you just put that money towards a Big Easy? Q) Is it possible to just ride around with the battery removed or flat? Is it pretty much the same bike plus the weight of the motor? Q) I already own nice (standard) paniers, can those be clipped onto the side of these cargo bikes, or do they have a different sort of rack. Q) Thoughts on riding an electric cargo bike in the snow/slush?

I used to live and bike in Philly on the bike share and it was pretty good back in 2015, have things just stalled out or something?

If that works for you great. Those little front wheels and cargo out front is just not the direction Im looking to go, I’m basically wanting a gravel bike with cargo carrying by default.

I just don’t think I want the default to be storing cargo out front, I like pulling stuff from behind.
