I'm really liking Eugene Levy's "The Reluctant Traveler" and went back looking for his old SCTV stuff.. he's amazing haha Perry Como Still Alive : www.youtube.com/watch?v=tabH...

Flu: "Welcome back to NB Derek"

6.5 hour stopover in Toronto.. that's a lot of air canada nachos headed my way

Dad what on earth were you drinking.

Fairly densely built Dutch neighbourhood I just biked through. Lots of green space still. Very quiet despite the density.

Cute little Sicilian shop in de pijp.

I checked my ebike here in Amsterdam that my daughter uses. She has put 5000km on it in the last 2 years 🤯. Doesn’t need a car just bikes everywhere.

@nicthedoor.bsky.social what a great set of videos of your latest trip through the Netherlands!

Six lane Main St was a waste of money and a drain on our north end community. The new changes slow down cars and make it a nice trek uptown. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2j65...

Curse those empty bike lanes.

Dutch bridge gets a temporary tent built on it so that maintenance can continue through bad weather. This is an important bridge for busses and active transportation, not cars. 🤩 www.facebook.com/reel/1101298...

I like the new Main St changes.. I walked home yesterday and what a great difference, it's a pleasant walk now.

We're selling our family cottage / house - it's winterized. It has a ridiculous amount of beachfront, multiple decks and has big windows overlooking the river, hot tub which is amazing at 7am + high speed internet which was always a must. Jason Stephen is our listing agent - MLS soon. #waterfront

CBC had an article about PFAS, common in firefighting foam (I'm wondering if it was in the foam used at the AIM fire) newsinteractives.cbc.ca/features/202... For SJ, shows: But isn't the city's water intake literally right next to the airport?

ebike trek around Schiphol.

Voted. Dropped off my ballot at the embassy. Whew.

"..Heavy Industry contributes only 9% of the total property tax revenue while taking up significant space and creating substantial risks for residents. Residential taxpayers shoulder 63% of the burden while living with the consequences of industrial activity." peoplecity.substack.com/p/buffer-zon...

Biked to the bakery.

Now there’s a headline.

It's amazing the Dutch can have livable cities despite having crazy traffic.

Watching trains again.. #amsterdam #prorail

“Yeah but Amsterdam is flat”.

My Canadian brain

Well done whoever made these.

This remains my favourite ever video of Dutch cycling / culture. I love it.

Hoe gaat 't met mijn nederlands taalniveau (volgens DUO/#NT2), vraagde ik me aan. Vorig jaar ben ik de vier B1 examens geslaagd. Een leuke verrassing! Nu heb ik mijn B2 gedaan. Te weinig of voldoende kennis weet ik nog niet. Waaroom doe mens de B2? Is het ergens verplicht?

Another day in Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory. #trams

She has represented us well

It is hard to cross the street at rush hour. I love it. So many people and it’s so quiet. #amsterdam

Let’s do it NB. Export tax on gasoline exports. Ontario just announce that they will issue a 25% Export Tax on Electricity sold to the US.

🥳

The commute

One thing I love about the Netherlands is how much easier it is to eat healthier.

hahahha! "I notice mister carney uses a lot of slogans"

2025 so far.

I’m not logged on for two hours and now this.

What do you suppose Pollivre's speech would have been?

Excise tax on Canadian oil, gasoline and electricity sent south. Free beer for Canadians. #HeroMath

My anonymized elderly Dutch inlaws keep their independence on safe infrastructure. This is the lifestyle I'm striving for.

Watching these two guys pushed me way into the Liberal camp and I just joined the party. I'm surprised he wasn't eating another apple haha

omf.. someone tried to break into the building at 4:20pm on a Friday afternoon.

Anyone know if the Main St project is on this year or not?

North and South Dakota each have <1m people and are each separate states. Doesn't that mean we would be states 51-90?

~25% of all journeys are by bikes Most important means for getting to school Women & children bike the most Biking is obviously more prevalent in cities Biking & Auto share is similar for trips up to 7.5 km Cycling is associated with positive mental wellbeing / feelings

It is hard to buy a compact car in Canada. We had a tough time trying to find a Yaris a few years ago.

Canadian health care isn’t perfect but no one has to file for bankruptcy because they are diagnosed with cancer.

Is anyone getting mail from canada post? None of my business stuff is coming in.

Two book set!
