So basically if you drive and the more laws you collectively break, the more the city will accommodate you for your careless driving. And just like the drivers, will not accept responsibility.

On Feb. 20, 1959, the Avro Arrow program was cancelled by the Diefenbaker government.
Thousands of people lost their jobs, and the Canadian aeronautical and aviation sector was decimated. The day became known as Black Friday.
This is the story of the Arrow.

Last summer Aunt P was over visiting my mom. The topic of old French folk music from the old days came up. I queued some up on Spotify and my mom was smiling and clapping along. ❀️

Someone should get a transcript and ask ChatGPT and other AIs if they wrote it or most of it.

ChatGPT, please write me a speech to make Andy Fillmore sound less like an ahole.

If this is the City’s plan, the mayor’s personal/campaign logo has no business being included on the cover.

So what the city is saying is that the more aggressive and dangerous drivers get, the more they'll accommodate them and give them hugs.
Excuse me while I go shop for a new walking stick.

Lowell Green was a racist demagogue who used his CFRA radio show as a soapbox to rant about immigrants and target racialized communities in Ottawa

Contrary to Ottawa Mayor Mark Sutcliffe's eulogy here, Lowell wasn't proud of Canada – he wrote an entire book about how it wasn't white enough for him
