Completed in 1924, 30 Windsor Avenue (called the Wilson Apartments) was the first apartment building on this stretch of Riverdale Avenue close to Windsor Park. In 1928, major flooding of the Rideau River threatened this area of Old Ottawa South. #Ottawa #613history www.instagram.com/p/DSKyyBhEei...

I'd always thought that at some point, we'd look back as a society and realize that Quintin Tarantino films were mostly well-acted annoying garbage.

With the state of the US judicial system, I think "no I didn't" should now be a valid defense.

The guy shot two random people with a gun, I don't think you can say he wasn't assimilating into our culture

Danielle Smith uses notwithstanding clause to declare herself premier of B.C.

I'm thinking I'm going to be pulling this one out a lot more than I thought, throughout this minority government www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

@mark-carney.bsky.social - not your Grandpa's typical conservative PM

I get mad when I think of the American morons who voted for Donald Trump. Then I think of our own domestic morons who voted for this guy (or couldn't be arsed to even vote), and I worry about us.

A week apart. Wow... And the former environmentalist/Minister of the Environment. Well, the Government of Canada is about to flip the climate another bird. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

A lot being said about this in the news today, but not anything about the fact that the #FBI / #DoJ just admitted they're allowing millions of dollars of drugs to flow through them into #Canada. Should we have our own new tariffs now, like President Crybaby Poopypants? www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Nope!

❌ There's not enough money for reliable transit. ❌ There's not enough money for safe road infrastructure. ✅ But goddamit if there isn't enough money to bail out OSEG for the next 100 years. ✅ AND to build a suburb outside of city limits that will perpetually cost taxpayers a fortune. #ottawa

FUCK YOU CLIMATE!

These are awesome!

😱 Shocked face

Sometimes, you can't make this stuff up... In less than a month, councilor Dudas voted to commit Ottawa tax prayers to: 1. A development project outside of city limits that will be a gift drain in already attached resources.

Disappointed, but not surprised all the suburban councillors threw the centre under the bus (Again) with Lansdowne, but WTF @stephanieplante.bsky.social ?

Tremendous to hear some veteran Ottawa city councillors argue that Lansdowne 2.0 is needed because the previous overhaul that they voted for is crap.

Yay for Landsdowne 2.0. Looking forward to when developers need to raid the city coffers again, and we do Lansdowne 3.0!!

It's not that these councilors who voted 'yes' are dumb people, or uninformed, or naive - so why did #OttCity council vote to approve the disaster that my kids will still be paying for when their kids are having kids? It's gotta be SOMETHING... 🤔💰 www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

No thanks - not in Canada.

The Liberal budget missed a big opportunity: Taxing the rich more.

Ottawa Deserves Redo on Lansdowne 2.0 ottawacitizen.com/opinion/otta...

We need more of this kind of thinking at city hall! 👏

Now we just need to get fascists away from the wheels of power

Sunbound. #Toronto #GOtransit #Trains #Sunset #Photography

I'm no good at culture knowing stuff... Is tomorrow the day the burn anonymous in England or something?

I don't know about everyone else, but as a Canadian, I feel our government's elbows have gone all floppy...

Some people can be really really entitled... And awful about it!

We're trying to figure out "November" songs over at my place. I can only come up with the "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" Any favourites out there?

Bill 60’s provision on banning bike lanes is undemocratic an assault on municipal autonomy a threat to people’s safety fiscally reckless Voice your opposition. Send an email to the Premier, Minister Sarkaria, your local MPP all in one shot. See bottom of our post. bikeottawa.ca/2025/10/30/o...

This is what you say when it’s obvious that something is real and there’s productivity coming out of it

Good luck #Jamaica

Lol!

Tewin at full scale would be about 100,000 people -- that's like a whole new Barrhaven East. Ottawa taxpayers simply can't afford that type of growth.

Proposed changes from the Ontario government would drastically reduce protection for tenants. This is appalling and would put some folks in serious danger in this era of very low vacancy, skyrocketing rental rates, and rent decontrol. Nearly 40% of Ottawa residents are renters.

We get the city we vote for, Ottawa.

At this point, Poilievre and Danielle Smith should just start wearing MAGA hats...

We get the mayor we elect, Ottawa.

Oh thank God. We did it. It's Friday.

This story doesn’t mention that all 3 of these minor error audits were brought by a former Taggart Development executive who cost the city a lot of time and money by going after people critical of his developments and Tewin in particular. ottawacitizen.com/news/2022-ca...

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! 🦃🍁🍂🥧

Here’s my new op ed in @thespec1846.bsky.social about the insanity in America and why we have much to be thankful for in Canada 🇨🇦 Happy Thanksgiving 🍁

A Pickering councillor has been suspended without pay seven times. I went through the integrity commissioner reports each time she was suspended. Here's what I found:

Anyone else feel like we're just waiting for bullets to start flying south of the border?

Woke up this morning, and it's still Biff's 1985 out there.

Never stop being Autowah

www.cbc.ca/news/politic... Hey! Finally something from this government I can get behind!

Yes!! Please do this. What a colossal waste of resources in a city already stretched thin. Would LOVE to hear how this really got approved. Speaking of which, where's ol' Jimbo at? Enjoying a lush retirement somewhere I bet!
