"Sea-to-Sky Passenger Rail" is an additional item on their manifesto. Seriously? What about the Spirit Trail? What about the speed of cars on the Parkway? What about active infrastructure? I think they might be running for the wrong job.

But none of those are the responsibility of the District of North Vancouver. They are Translink, Metro Vancouver and the Province. The Skytrain alone goes through 4 municipalities. Yes we need and advocate and yes our system is complicated, but still what you going to do about the District?

Confused by this manifesto. New 2nd Narrows Bridge, Skytrain from Metrotown to Ambleside, Highway 1 HOV lanes, express bus to Horseshoe Bay. I'm glad someone is advocating for these good ideas. www.nieweler.ca/unlock-gridl...

Albertans with Canadian flags attached to their car in 2026 and Albertans with Canadian flags attached to their car in 2021 are completely non-overlapping groups.

If a candidate made it an offence to have sounds from phones in public places - they’d get my vote immediately. This a post about the people on this bus. And the ones from the other night. And the old people playing games on the ferry. #bcvotes

Shocked and disgusted to see swastikas and nazi hate graffiti on the Spirit Trail in North Vancouver. Hope the City and District can clean it up.

New research from Proton finds 87% of top Canadian companies depend on US tech companies. For governments, it’s even worse: 100% of federal, provincial, and territorial governments rely on US companies for email. As Canada turns away from the US, major institutions need to cut that reliance.

Waking you up this morning with a song that speaks to "The Trump Dividend" - that is - Trump's promise to pay each adult American who votes Republican in the midterms. It's by The Haymarket Squares - it's called "Buy My Vote."

Person on CBC radio said “People need to commute, take their kids to school, grocery shop, in their cars.” No recognition that all those things can happen without vehicles and busy traffic prevents people from doing just that.

Currently my running coach and I use a service based in the US. That means someone in the US getting my money and data. And the US Government spying on me. Forget that. So I've rebuilt the important parts and I'll host it in Canada. #elbowsup
