Edmonton adopted a harsh policy of removing encampments a few years ago, while Calgary did not. A study of the first year following that shift found a five-fold increase in emergency amputations in Edmonton over previous years with no change in Calgary's rate.

Heyo, if you haven’t heard there is a PIA rally at Beverly Heights today against our nonsense referendum at 6:30. I’ll be biking there departing from the Garneau Lamp at around 5:20.

I find this shocking. 60% of Canadians say they feel forced to own a car to access their daily needs! There is HUGE pent-up demand for better transportation options. Paraphrasing @lorinah.bsky.social: people are just not all that jazzed about spending their days in a car. survey.mobilizingjustice.ca
Mobilizing Justice survey (https://survey.mobilizingjustice.ca/explore): to what extent do you agree with the following statements? I feel forced to own a car to access my daily activities.

Of 21,301 respondents, 38.9% say they completely agree, 21% say agree, 20.2% neutral, 8.3% disagree, and 11.6% completely disagree.

Half an hour in to this podcast I downgrade William MacAskill from mewling sycophant of the billionaire class to technophilic fool. Imagine thinking that data centres in space makes thermodynamic, much less economic, sense.

The City of Ottawa posted the raw speed data from before and after Doug Ford banned speed cameras and the effect is so obvious it's not even necessary put a line marking when that happened. This chart shows the percentage of drivers going 15km/h or more over the posted limit.

The essay’s argument actually aligns with our research into how to get people to take action for public transit. “Transit fights climate change” isn’t a motivating frame; “ensuring everyone can get around with dignity” is. We still push transit as a climate solution, just with different messaging.

Think about it: AV companies trumpet their supposed safety benefits while programming robotaxis to drop people off in bike lanes. If you think that's a problem, maybe don't take robotaxi safety claims at face value.

A certain commentator in Edmonton's political sphere was gloating about "winning" around the 101st bus lane removal to me and I've been left somewhat confused. The 111th ave to Kingsway part of the lane works the same way, and it just sucks. That's your big win?

Pay for Parking is not killing OSFM. Products that have increased prices faster than inflation combined with additional competition from other markets is. I've been to Bountiful more than a few times in the past few years, it's also hollowing out and it has tons of free parking.

@nationalpost.com.web.brid.gy continues to platform some of the most vile people. The arguments in this one are trivial to debunk with a basic education in Canadian history. The core one is this insane conflation between indigenous rights and nativism.

It was built on land that was received from the Indigenous in exchange for benefits that continue today. False notions mustn't balkanize us

cspeters42I took this video while slightly drunk after the Critical Mass ride. I laugh hysterically but do understand, from the time I first press the breaks until I start laughing a small part of me is worrying that maybe the light on my bike isn’t working. It is a laughter of “oh good, I’m not dying tonight”

Hard Drive was saddened to her about the passing of Molag Bal. We may not have always agreed with his methods, but he worked to enslave all of humanity and harvest their souls with the grace and poise the position demanded. Our thoughts go out to all his Daedric brethren in this difficult time.

I always love a good ratioing of the neoliberal. Charlie Kirk was a fucking monster and in an ideal world he would be in a Norwegian style jail with no internet access rather than an early grave. On the flip side, bravo to AOC for staying on message about gun control!

Violence against the lower rungs of society matters little to the fascist. Violence against power matters quite a lot. This is but one aspect, another is that his death feeds into the evangelical persecution complex.
