No one can ever believe anything Trump pledges, says or puts in writing. With Trump, a deal is never a deal and nobody can count on the US for anything while he’s president. His word is garbage, agreements mean nothing, and he lies about everything.

Opinion: BC NDP overlooking public transit's role in easing cost-of-living pressures | Daily Hive | Urbanized
Public transit is the most powerful affordability tool within the provincial government's control, but the BC NDP is overlooking it.

More bike and roll lanes should have trees and gardens on both sides. Delightful climate action. This is Pandora St at Douglas in #VictoriaBC today. #yyj
Protected bike and roll lane with young street trees on both sides. There are pink blossoms 🌸 on the trees on the right side.

Cycling side-by-side isn’t bad behaviour—it’s human behaviour. It’s how parents talk to their kids. How friends catch up. How communities form. If bicycle infrastructure is too narrow for people to ride and talk together, the problem isn’t the people. It’s the infrastructure. Nørrebro, Copenhagen.

Wow! This is some top-notch investigative journalism. The report claims the 3 million Epstein files released are only 2% of the total. The massive scale of what’s still missing is hard to comprehend.

Trump: "NATO has treated the United States very badly. We've never asked for anything. We've never got anything." Tell that to the families of 850 soldiers from 19 non-US NATO countries who died fighting to defend the United States in Afghanistan - the only occasion Article 5 was ever triggered.

The appliances emit benzene, a potent carcinogen. Exposure varies depending on ventilation and other factors, but there’s no safe level.

I see otherwise smart people complaining that vote-splitting cost the Liberals a majority government. It's pretty safe to assume that people voting for other parties didn't want them to get a majority, even if they did want them to defeat the Conservatives.

Comment: As trade wars rage, Canada must end thermal coal exports
The federal government rightfully acknowledges that thermal coal, used primarily for electricity generation, is a uniquely dirty and dangerous source of energy.

When the Dutch invest in cycling infrastructure, they invest in something that is both functional and beautiful. This contributes to cycling not so much being a functional activity, to get from a to b, but also a recreational and social activity.

Some stats from 100 days in on congestion pricing: - Complaints about car-honking are down 70% - The Holland Tunnel has 65% fewer delays at rush hour; time to get thru it is down 48% - 6 million fewer cars - Half as many traffic-related injuries - 1.5 million more visitors to BIDs year over year

How Well Is Congestion Pricing Doing? Very.
One hundred days in, honking is down; bus speeds are up.

5. Remember professional ethics. When political leaders set a negative example, professional commitments to just practice become more important. It is hard to subvert a rule-of-law state without lawyers, or to hold show trials without judges. Authoritarians need obedient civil servants, and concentration camp directors seek businessmen interested in cheap labor.

I deeply and meaningfully do not care what DJT does or doesn't say, how he says it, why he says it...It truly does not matter. The only thing that matters now is how Canada moves on without the US as a trusted ally. Every political leader in this country should be laser focused on that.

To get elected, Poilievre not only has to distance himself from Trump, he has to distance himself from everything he himself has ever said and stands for. It's very difficult but he has lots of experience lying.
