Schools for the wealthy should not be subsidized by tax payers.
Text explaining how there isn’t a war on cars, with all the benefits of reallocating street space to move a lot more people with a lot less space and other consequences, including life and death, pollution/emissions, public and personal costs, etc. Providing more choices works better for everyone, including drivers. And more transportation choices support the economic competitiveness of cities, as smart cities know.
I’m not a fan of politicians trying to make people angry for votes by claiming there actually IS a “war on cars” (there isn’t — if anything there’s been a war on every OTHER way of getting around since the 1960s).
A politician just made the claim on LinkedIn. Here’s the reply I posted. #UrbanTruth

Have they voted yet?
child on ipad with headphones: maybe we should stop worrying about the screens kids are on adult driving looking at phone AND START WORRYING ABOUT THE SCREENS ADULTS ARE ON One thing leads to another.
Screen Time.
More ice rinks and pools please!
School board candidates?
Rich, connected and idle. The amount of free time they have to just do horrible stuff is obscene.
Why do these people get so much airtime?
“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back to a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”
IT SAVES PUBLIC MONEY to house people.

Why don’t the #goldeneyes have a radio broadcast? We need this ! @sportsnet650.bsky.social
This is a great way to go. The algorithms on facebook bother me too. It’s just too bad facebook marketplace is so damn useful.
TikTok’s US ownership Structure and political alignment is concerning to me.
Deleted TikTok and Twitter from my phone. The misinformation, rage baiting, and fear mongering on those apps is a danger to our planet.
There should be a simple planning term for “don’t judge the value of a future bridge by how many people are currently swimming across the river”. It’s so prevalent. Bike lanes, transit, housing, parking, anything really.
You had me at Cargo Bike Garage!
The @vsb39.bsky.social has posted a statement regarding ABC School Trustee Alfred Chien's X/Twitter post. Has he apologized to the parents and DPAC? #vanpoli #bced www.vsb.bc.ca/page/80102/f...
Hell yes!
Nice work!
2 years ago the chain(2 chains) would have cost me 56 Canadian dollars.
I have a longtail!
100 dollars for a new bike chain and 70 bucks for bike grips. I really do want to shop local, but prices are so high at local retail shops that I’m forced go online now.
A person is injured, the VPD have failed them, "expert lawyers" are misleading the public, and changes to the MVA are pointless unless actually upheld. THREAD 🧵
1. After decades of involvement with @VSB39, I’ve tried to tune out. It’s just too disheartening to watch the breakdown in relationships between the board, parents & staff — and the cost to students is enormous. #vanpoli #bced #bcpoli /2
Sounds reasonable? Right? Nope. This group is a Christian fascist one. These stickers are popping up all over Vancouver . Take em down if you see it. #vanpoli
Mo Amir @vancolour.bsky.social posted on Ken Sim “opt out” election signs - against rules and bound to upset a lot of people. When I’m out campaigning w/ Green candidate @annettereilly.bsky.social common refrain I hear is regret voting for ABC in ‘22 (still under campaign finance investigation)
On his way out the door, Justin Trudeau's government drops a "housing design catalogue" of stock plans for ADUs, duplexes, fourplexes and sixplexes that can be dropped on suburban and urban lots. Really nice work by LGA Architecture, Michael Green, and other top Canadian firms.
We may already be losing Quinn Hughes if we maintain the current trajectory. Our only option may be to trade our most valuable assets for futures.
