Hostile govt. If the chuckleheads who support this removal action ever faced this kind of hostility from govt while just trying to get around they’d loose their fucking minds.

A mayoral candidate in Ottawa has come out against Alto High-Speed Rail. I don’t understand point #2: “If this doesn’t go downtown to downtown, adding 30 mins at each end defeats the whole purpose.” I thought we didn’t know the route yet? Opposing it based on an “if”?

I think it was really brave of the mayor to share this but oh boy, have the online comments been a sickening reminder of how much people hate women. Somehow, the person getting a pat on the back on social media is Loomis while the mayor takes more abuse for vulnerably sharing her experience.

On this day in 1989, an armed gunman murdered 14 women at École Polytechnique de Montréal. Another ten women and four men were injured. The anniversary of the massacre is commemorated annually on Dec. 6 as the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women.
A black granite memorial plaque features a circular arrangement of names in white text, bordered by silver rivets. At the top center is an emblem of a bee with gears. The text reads "in memoriam" followed by two columns of names: Geneviève Bergeron, Hélène Colgan, Nathalie Croteau, Barbara Daigneault, Anne-Marie Edward, Maud Haviernick, Maryse Laganière, Maryse Leclair, Anne-Marie Lemay, Sonia Pelletier, Michèle Richard, Annie St-Arneault, Annie Turcotte, Barbara Klucznik Widajewicz. At the bottom: "6 DÉCEMBRE 1989".

A crossing guard was killed by the driver of a dump truck yesterday. absolutely heartbreaking. Look at our intersections, look how hostile these are for people/children - this is what we continue to build and defend at all costs. These aren't accidents, these are results. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

FYI - it's been several HOURS and the judge is still reading her decision in the Hockey Canada trial. Hollywood has people thinking a judge just stands up and says guilty or acquitted and they move on. Nope. Victims have to listen to hours of a judge smearing them in front of a packed courtroom.

If you follow our city council at all you’d see that funding transit is never prioritized. At least with tracks in the ground it’ll be harder to rip out in the name of budget savings like the original priority lanes down king.
