Based on marketing, cars are bought as extensions of personality.

I have no doubt that the UCP would step in. They don’t have values other than anger at those outside their tent. If progressive councillors were smart, they would use UCP interference as cover to go further. BE lost because of apparent UCP influence; conservative parties can’t hide from it now.

With the cancellation of 95 ave I’m left thinking about all we got out of the “100m” active transportation expansion. 🧵

@shifter.info highlighted the difference between REV (Montreal) and Calgary. “Transit map vs plate of spaghetti” Here is a comparison with Edmonton #yegbike Our map looks like a confusing mess of disconnected routes.

Finished When the Clock Broke How our current politics of grievance were honed and manufactured during the 90s.

Anti infill suburbanites are the strangest group.

The all hands on deck emergency for the mayor is 2 dollars an hour street parking

Knack seems to be moving towards free parking downtown. Prioritizing car access seems counterintuitive if you also want foot traffic and vibrancy. Make downtown a place worth going.

I have a few leftover ticket vouchers for the Riverhawks if anyone can use them. Looks like seats are only available on the bleachers.

I think I got the most ironic seats for the ball game

The NHL playing games on Boxing Day, competing with world junior games just feels wrong. It’s another step in NA sports obsession with extracting maximum revenue at expense of tradition and actual fandom..

142 footbridge is closed again. Did knack just cut the locks and open it himself last week? #yegbike

The UCP will sell this as fixing something that is unpopular. Bike lanes are not unpopular in Edmonton. bike opposing candidate for mayor lost. bike opposing councillors lost to bike friendly incumbents. This is only an issue with a loud minority whose identity politics tells them it is…

The good thing about biking in the rain is finally being able to ride through puddles because you’re already soaked.

142nd street footbridge is now open! (per Knack’s instagram story) The one along the whitemud opened a few days earlier. #yegbike
