montreal’s BIXI bikes are offering a free “election pass” for the quebec provincial election (I was in Montreal a few weeks ago and used BIXI a few times so am now on their mailing list just so I can feel extra jealous of montreal’s bike facilities…) Looking at you, Toronto Bike Share 👀
Exercise your right to vote on October 5

“To make it easier to get to the polls, BIXIs will be free from 8 am to 8:30 pm on October 5, Election Day.

Use the Élections Québec One-Way Pass in the app to avoid the bike unlocking fee and get free 25-minute rides on regular BIXIs or 15-minute rides on electric BIXIs.“

how about some good news: new cat just dropped!!!!
a photo of a small, spotted wild cat, with orange fur and brown circular markings, staring up with big golden eyes.Meet the First New Cat Species Discovered in 100 Years

A small, spotted tiger cat from Bolivia may just be the beginning of a wave of new small cat species.

This 10-year-old male tiger cat is the first of his species (named Leopardus tilcayo) known to science. He is approximately 18 inches from head to end of body and weighs only 3 pounds, making him smaller than the average domestic cat. This video was captured at the Senda Verde Animal Refuge in Bolivia’s Yungas region, where he currently resides.

The invitation by the E.U. for Canada to become an “associate member” is a sign of Mr. Trump’s brand of diplomacy, which often involves threatening America’s closest friends.

The Norway/EEA model is probably the closest existing analogue to what Canada is discussing, although Canada's proposed arrangement appears potentially broader in some areas.

Trump told 9/11 families that he was rescued from the rubble of the World Trade Center -- an obvious and shocking lie. Here's how the New York Times reports it. This is like reporting George Wallace's "segregation forever" speech as "Governor speaks at inauguration. Some remarks controversial."
New York Times:
Trump Honors 9/11
Emergency Personnel in
Washington
President Trump awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom posthumously to a volunter firefighter who saved numerous people. He also added to a disputed account of his actions that day.

Ford will kill bike 🚴‍♂️ commuters because he & other suburban 🚗 commuters don't like seeing 🚴‍♂️ fly past. "Prabmeet Sarkaria said the province would look at keeping bike lanes “where possible…but the priority is restoring that vehicle lane.” #BikeTo #ToPoli #OnPoli 🎁 www.thestar.com/gift-redeem?...
It’s unclear why the province rejected the city’s proposed changes to the cycling corridors.

A source said the province rejected every proposal presented with a bike lane and negotiations weren’t able to reach the point of talking about in-depth, technical designs.

When asked for comment on the city’s proposed redesigns, Charlotte Carron, a spokesperson for Sarkaria, said Thursday in a statement: “We have always been clear: bike lanes should go where they make sense — not at the expense of vehicle lanes, commuters’ time or our economy.”
