mark burge @markburge.ca · 10/09/2026The fact that the article doesn’t even mention the rounds of local targeted consultation, or pull from the engagement summaries is just bad reporting, especially when they mention a specific number for a petition to get rid of it. 1143
mark burge @markburge.ca · 03/09/2026At the risk of betraying my cycling credentials, I got a van last week after months of importing it from Japan. It’s a 2008 Toyota regius ace. 670
mark burge @markburge.ca · 12/08/2026I think there might be a fire on the north shore mountains somewhere- this isn’t normal flight paths for helicopters here and I don’t think these are SAR. 000
mark burge @markburge.ca · 08/07/2026Look,I’m generally for painted bike lanes(they designate a space, so when you go to put in a permanent separated one there’s far less pushback, but you have to build the culture to support them if you’re not going to have a physical barrier. if that means ticketing folks like this, then so be it. 000
mark burge @markburge.ca · 27/06/2026And they specifically say they have no plans to do so. #bikeyvr 010
mark burge @markburge.ca · 27/06/2026It’s insane that it’s 2026, and the city still doesn’t have a connector or signage to from the Masumi Mitsui greenway to the arbutus greenway. 100
mark burge @markburge.ca · 21/06/2026. @desertbus.org sure is a different experience when you can sit out on the deck enjoying dinner and a fire. 0101
mark burge @markburge.ca · 13/06/2026Feels good to finally knock this project off the list. #woodworking 4251
mark burge @markburge.ca · 24/05/2026“Vancouver has great bus service!” Half hour service should be illegal- it’s noon on a Sunday. 010
mark burge @markburge.ca · 24/04/2026Finally getting around to making some mid century modern storage cabinets. #woodworking #mcm 070
mark burge @markburge.ca · 26/03/2026This is why you wear a respirator when spraying paint. This is mostly dried paint overspray from our paint booth. 040
mark burge @markburge.ca · 21/03/2026Finally got this up this evening. Enjoy the obligatory heritage minute- youtu.be/ikY7bMDVQTg?... 170
mark burge @markburge.ca · 20/03/2026Nothing like a nice wood fire during a very wet Pineapple Express. #yvr 030
mark burge @markburge.ca · 25/02/2026You can now all address me as “Mark Burge, RSE” I completed my Cabinetmaker Red Seal! 4140
mark burge @markburge.ca · 21/02/2026Being brave and refinishing my kitchen cabinets myself. Any thoughts as to if this western maple or eastern maple or something else? #woodworking 150
mark burge @markburge.ca · 16/02/2026This would be a very good project for a cosplayer/propmaker to make for real- 131
mark burge @markburge.ca · 07/02/2026One more thing about this, back when talks about CPKC and city to turn the rail line into a greenway, City assured that it wouldn't impact the delivery- but that turns out not to be the case- sidewalks were removed from the plan due to those discussions. csg001-harmony.sliq.net/00317/Harmon... 000
mark burge @markburge.ca · 07/02/2026What I really object to is that these changes won't achieve two of the city's three goals for the project. It won't make an AAA route- most of this section is still on a road with no separated lane. It also won't make it any safer than it already is- the greenway is already a 30km/h narrow road. 220
mark burge @markburge.ca · 06/02/2026Out of curiosity, what was the time difference between requesting it and it being done? Because it took over two years to kinda fix these stairs made of plywood. (The stairs are still falling apart, because, plywood) 100
mark burge @markburge.ca · 28/01/2026I’m unreasonably proud of this, and it fits the “ps5 is ugly, so my partner made me hide it” meme. Bonus that it stops my cats from scratching the couch. 2101
mark burge @markburge.ca · 16/01/202632 percent of 4061 is 1300 people. Where's the outrage for motor vehicle speeding laws and enforcement? safetrec.berkeley.edu/2025-safetre... 051
mark burge @markburge.ca · 14/01/2026Also, my cats seem to love this scratch box I made of Tigerwood. 030
mark burge @markburge.ca · 12/01/2026I know because we’ve been in and out of the vet for the past two months because of this guy. 110
mark burge @markburge.ca · 03/01/2026Here’s a favourite from bath- curved seats! They don’t want you sitting for long here. 200
mark burge @markburge.ca · 03/01/2026I’ll save you the entire album of 70+ photos but as a woodworker the benches in museums are interesting from a practical and design standpoint. Especially as they reveal budget, or expansion points in the collection or building or just giving people the illusion of rest being possible. 120
mark burge @markburge.ca · 29/12/2025Frankie had to get his belly shaved because he needed to do some testing, and it’s very important for you see it now. 150
mark burge @markburge.ca · 19/12/2025That’s my only goal in life. Look at this beauty. Thanks marketplace, it was cheaper to buy this used than to buy the lumber to build a new one. 110
mark burge @markburge.ca · 15/12/2025Frankie loves the fireplace and is also feeling much better. 0110
mark burge @markburge.ca · 29/11/2025The copy on the back of the book is just gold- "The second book in President Trump's children's collection is Quiet Piggy! Learn how to talk to fake news and silence them with the rude ramblings of an unstable man" 030
mark burge @markburge.ca · 21/11/2025Buh I can’t even. Thank you everyone, the giveaway exceeded my budget of materials and time. So well done everyone. #desertbus2025 180
