BUCK: Once again, Team USA refusing to shake hands with their opponents SMOLTZ: well, I like it. Old school. BUCK: Joining us today, someone who knows about old school contests, the poet Homer ὍΜΗΡΟΣ: Diomedes said he had no quarrel with his enemy SMOLTZ: what ὍΜΗΡΟΣ: traded his armor with one

#hfxws Back from errands, it's a slushy mess out there. And of course whereas many low priority roads have had some form of action taken P1 sidewalks we are waiting to melt in southern D8.

coming soon to NS: Tim Houston to expropriate home owners in Westmount Subdivision in order to bring back the Halifax Municipal Airport

SDOT is eliminating parking on the entire upper half of 14th West on Queen Anne so fire trucks can get through and the neighbors are up in arms.

It’s almost as if NIMBYs don’t care about first responders and only use it as a talking point when it helps them to oppose bike lanes.

"Don't develop in my neighbourhood, develop somewhere else" *development clusters on the site of a dying mall and its ocean of parking* "No, no! My parking!"

Some might think it's impossible to do errands such as picking up a cake on a bike, but with a little care, you can do it and get it home in one piece...before cutting it into pieces.

There was lots of protest when #Japan announced it was building the world's first bullet-train in the early 1960s. They went ahead and built it—and now the low-emission, affordable, convenient shinkansen system is the envy of the world. 🧵

But the cyclists persist.

We can all agree that I'd look fantastic on a £5 note

Mount Pleasant Cemetery has a 30 km/h posted driving speed and a 10 km/h bicycle speed. Makes perfect sense.

It’s been over a decade since I had a run of Canadian dates, so I’m excited to be playing shows from Halifax to Winnipeg this summer – with a short excursion down to the US to play a set of Mermaid Avenue songs with Wilco at Solid Sound. Tickets on sale tomorrow: www.billybragg.co.uk/giglistings/

The Craven Road community art gallery (Toronto).

More than three years as a city councillor and it still amazes me that every meeting on every topic turns into an argument about parking. It’s exhausting.

I'm worried about e-bike crackdowns, so I looked at all the options. Can we find a better way forward? With help from @thebikinglawyer.bsky.social youtu.be/JJN4FqcI7WE

Someone threw eggs at high schoolers who walked out of school protesting the provincial cuts today on Herring Cove Road.

Obviously i am late to this by about a week, but Angine de Poitrine has to be the most 2026 thing

So B.C. NDP's decision to put #BritishColumbia on permanent Daylight Saving Time will actually put #homeless people at risk! The #unhoused will now have to exit shelters into temperatures 1 hr colder in DST than in Standard Time. DST has never been meant for, or done during winter! #Vancouver

People in the fb comments keep asking whether it happened in a crosswalk or not, and FFS can we not? A child is hurt and they’re already victim blaming while the victim is still lying in the road 😡

At Province House

Cuttell: So we keep making decisions to increase density because we are planning for the BRT to exist, but we have no funding for it, so like...? Anyways, what's going to have the biggest impact (Me: reallocating lanes. the answer is reallocating lanes. Biggest impact for zero money)

THE MINISTER OF EDUCATION CAN'T DO MATH. THE MINISTER OF CULTURE AND TOURISM COULDN'T SPEAK TO A SINGLE ONE OF THE CUTS.

“Business cases” 🤬 A 👏 GOVERNMENT👏 IS 👏 NOT 👏 A 👏 BUSINESS 👏 We give taxes to governments so they can do what businesses can’t. Provide vital services to everyone, not just those who can pay. Teach kids our history and traditions. Give dignity to seniors. Make this a safe and decent place to live.

If only we were not going in the exact opposite direction.

Don't want to pay for gas but have no other options? Be sure to send an email to council thanking them for building a world that requires the car DLC (and the car DLCs like gas)! Be sure to stress in your email how affordable the driving DLC makes the game of life for you.

Thanks - this is a great article. I have MS and find it difficult to walk but my little Bike Friday folding electric bike is an awesome mobility aid! Cycling is easy, especially with a very small bike. It's only 25 lbs with battery so my husband can easily put it in our trunk.

Une autre mauvais comportement de certaines personnes au volant d'un véhicule 😡🤦🏻‍♀️ « On a l’impression qu’il y a peut-être beaucoup de gens qui ne se rendent pas compte des impacts de jeter leurs ordures par les fenêtres de leur voiture et qui ont besoin d’être sensibilisés à ça. » #pollution

The alternative to fast railways is more runways and highways—the most polluting forms of inter-city transport. I take a look at the history of opposition to railways, going back to England in the 1830s, in this HIGH SPEED newsletter: www.highspeed.blog/not-in-my-ba...

New 'my hopes and dreams being crushed in the space of single second' meme just dropped.

Day one of voting in the NDP leadership race. The party info machine says they have never heard of me. They certainly take the donations.

I guess they swipe right. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Although presumably true for a younger generation than me, it's a bit funny to see this highlighted so high, in the second paragraph, on the wikipedia page for 'Hallelujah' by Leonard Cohen. You'd be nothing without Shrek, Leonard.

Minnesota lawmaker Katie Jones rode in a cargo e-bike to the hospital for her baby's birth. Her husband, Peter Schmitt, pedaled the two miles there. On the return journey, their son Hans – all 8 pounds and 1 ounce of him – was bundled up and handled it just fine, Jones said.

Do i go walk now while it still dark, because clock says 7:10, or wait until real time. Big issue is the later I walk the more drivers i have trying to kill me. these are the issues you need to consider thanks to our CarBrain HRM council and traffic staffing #ZeroVisionHFX

only advantage of time change, is when i woke up yet again way too early, it was actually one hour later on the clock *of course that doesn't help anything since i also fell asleep an hour later.

The price of oil has been down for months now. Historic data shows gas prices at their peak in 2022-23, with a moderate spike last summer. When the price of goods start to go up and retailers blame the price of oil, keep in mind retailers have done nothing but raise prices since 2023.

I'm excited for the debate in the House of Commons this week about who is to blame for high gas prices.

Her trip to Ireland was ruined by this one question?? Gee, I wonder why…

On call today seeing a ++HIGH risk patient. Me: You have COVID-19 Patient: I thought that was over. Me: It's not.

Les automobilistes: #goodmove, la zone 30 et les pistes cyclables impactent les services de secours La réalité: Voici ce qui impacte les services de secours ⤵️ Démarrage d'un nouveau 🧵 #secours (source de la 🎬: x.com/KieraDiss/st...)

Too bad they didn't build a wide bike lane for the emergency services to utilize when cars clog city streets.

I made a short video explainer of the Allen-Oak diverter debacle. A case study of #CarBrain & driver entitlement. Of political pussyfooting. If infrastructure only works when drivers choose to follow the rules, it’s not safe infrastructure #ZeroVisionHFX #SafeStreets urbanists.video/w/jSp8sSpyiX...

The thing is, if we don't actively protect our copyright, even when people are using it for seemingly "good" reasons, then anyone can violate it for any reason at any time, and we can't really defend it.

So, this Brandon Blades used the below photo from a story about the "special interests" rally I reported on March 5, 2025 and used it in a Facebook post he wrote last week. We politely asked him to at least give us credit and then he blocked me.

Nova Scotia is closed! Unless you wanna mine uranium I guess. #YHZ

Self-righteous driver entitlement is a hell of a drug. This guy parked on the sidewalk, was ticketed and is refusing to pay the fine “out of principle“ www.theargus.co.uk/news/2591398...
