An amazing aerial photo of the cranberry harvest recently in Delta BC. Looks like an abstract painting!

"The public space in front of the gallery is Vancouver’s only real piazza. It is perverse to hollow this place out and take the energy of its visitors and activity somewhere else." @alexbozikovic.bsky.social @theglobeandmail.com www.theglobeandmail.com/culture/art-...

This is wonderful. AI imagery is polluting both visual history and the real-world environment. Blockity-block-block! And remember: reporting and blocking AI content is even better than a duty - it's a pleasure.

To recap: - community action; - a plan made; - industrial lands remediated; - a river moved; - an island made; - lands made green & nature returns; - Indigenous people named the island; - a bridge built & floated into place; - art & culture floats down the river. . ✨Some dream level stuff! ✨

I was there yesterday. There is also a'clicking noise component to it also, when there is a gentle breeze blowing as there was then. A building with a fringe on it! How wonderful!

Felt moved, joy & pride. All at the same time. The beautiful.. flotilla(?) of canoes travels along newly moved Don River. Part of A Lake Story by Melissa McGill put on by @thebentway.bsky.social. In the background is Ookwemin Minising, & the (morning misty) Toronto skyline behind it.

hee hee hee!

A positive move.

Why is the City Of Toronto buying advertorial, featuring chief planner @jasonthorne.bsky.social, in the Star? www.thestar.com/sponsored-se...

I believe this...

...'all the truth in the world adds up to one big lie'...

Have a listen here folks....

A Made-in-Canada transportation system ... "What is more patriotic than sitting beside a fellow Canadian on a bus, streetcar or train, thereby helping to preserve our farmlands, wetlands and wildlands?" www.torontotoday.ca/local/opinio...

Three times in one week. These are dark times, my friends.

See how simple this is Canada?

THIS JUST IN: #Canada's government is going ahead with Alto, a high-speed rail line between #Quebec City and #Toronto. Trains to reach speeds of up to 300 kilometres (186 mph) per hour. 20 million people, half Canada's population, live in this corridor.

Luv ya Matt!!

Sometimes shit just happens, my mother used to tell me...

Wonderful!

Most excellent thread on making ICE melt.

Channing Tatum gets it: "I mean, Toronto is dope.... when I worked here and got to live here, riding a bike around was like my favorite thing on the weekends. You just sort of mob around, everyone's on bikes, everyone's sorta you just go to restaurants and bars"

The battle against authoritarianism is fought in the streets, but also in the mind.

Japanese sando in the park. So civilized. (Imanishi Sando Bar in McCormick Park, Toronto).

Looks like a lot of fun!

More of this to the Toronto Islands please. And a large outlay of ride share bikes there when you disembark!

Another beauty, James...wowsah!!

I’m on a balcony watching this with a wasp buzzing around my head 🐝😡

Icefields Parkway, Jasper

'The findings add weight to a growing body of evidence that beavers may be acting as ecosystem engineers, reshaping waterways in ways that benefit not just their own survival, but that of entire landscapes.'

oh, the colour!

Swinging. Rocking. Lounging. Halifax has mastered the art of just sitting and looking at the water.

Serenity.

this is interesting...

Sometimes we* get it right (* Waterfront Toronto)

Yes!!

Let's go! I want to see life on the streets, especially in downtown neighbourhoods!

Night thoughts When the sun burns, there is no difference between human and animal, everyone gladly accepts the shade of a tree.💚☘️🌿🌱🌲🌳🍀💚

Thoughts I have never really thought about which substances in the smell of soil influence my state of mind, but I can say from experience that it is true. We are part of nature, and it feels good.💚☘️🌿🌱🌳🌲🍀💚

a gorgeous new painting by a dear friend of mine James Huctwith!

Sunrise from my co-op abode

Every neighbourhood needs one of these in it!

A favorite Mary Oliver poem

Peak summer takeover of my balcony!

whimsy and practicality working together lol

Four more images from my home town stroll in Elora yesterday. Perfect weather for it. #photography #blueskyphotography #eloraontario #canada #streetphotography #architecture #smalltowns

It was a beautiful day yesterday to be a tourist in my own little tourism hot spot village of Elora, Canada. I strolled around during late morning, ahead of the usual weekend influx of humanity. #photography #blueskyphotography #canada #smalltowns #heritagebuildings #rivers #eloraontario #tourism

Imagine what New York city would do with this or London, too, for that matter. We need to elect more politicians who recognize golden opportunities when they see them. To0 many bureaucrats and not enough creatives in politics!

Too many cooks; a sad failure of “activation”. What it needs is a leader and a vision right now.

wow...I never that a Pike fish was so beautiful and so large! Thx to the person who posted this on Reddit!
