Because we got to a point of almost zero vacancies, and because a lot of people who were about to buy suddenly couldn’t because owned housing also went way, way up in price, we’ve had a few rough years for housing affordability. But that wasn’t caused by nice countertops or other finish choices.

Le capitalisme se fout de ta haine du transport actif, épisode 1233. Le capitalisme, ça finance la modernisation des cargos de vélos de livraison à assistance électrique. Eh oui, si le livreur veut tourner à droite, vous le saurez grâce aux clignotants ! S'il se gare, vous le saurez aussi.

After debating and voting on every single line item, to vote against the whole is a vote of non confidence in the council. And when you're the mayor that is a vote of non confidence in yourself and your leadership, an admission of failure.

The Mayor is touting the importance of literacy and early access to books, after having led efforts to: 1) spend the library reserve fund on non-library items; 2) reduce library staffing/funding; 3) cut school library staff.

Buying fire engines that fit the city you want is cheaper than building your entire city to fit the fire engines you have. This is true even after taking staffing costs into account.

Well, I should have held off on putting up my beautiful signs that look so good in the window The building's owner noticed them at about 10:00 this morning and told me to remove them It's not unusual for condos and apartment buildings to have rules against signs in windows. Still, feeling sad.
