@savestandard.bsky.social O Canada! BC and Yukon will be two hours ahead of Alaska. Southeastern BC (light blue) will be two hours ahead of Idaho. When one travels east from Manitoba to northwestern Ontario, the clock will move back by one hour. Newfoundland is always 30 min. ahead of the Maritimes.

@mark-carney.bsky.social If I could change the use of the Notwithstanding Clause, I would increase the requirement to a 2/3 majority. That way, the Notwithstanding clause can't be used casually by a legislature or the Parliament of Canada. #cdnpoli

Today is the day I post a bunch of Saint-Pierre (and Miquelon) photos.

I am happy that the Eglinton LRT line exists. I was going southbound on the Yonge line. It is closed from Eglinton to College for an incident at St. Clair. I took Yonge south to Eglinton, the west on Eglinton to Cedarvale. After, it will be to St. George and west to Dundas West. #topoli

If Canada becomes an associate member of the EU, I will need to learn Luxembourgish. That way when I talk about Donald Trump to someone, I can say "Hien ass grouss."

While "associate membership" may seem like a good designation for Canada with the EU. The latter will need to think how this affects its present and future relationship with non-EU countries like Norway, Iceland, Switzerland, and the UK.

@mark-carney.bsky.social A trade agreement between Canada and the EU will help businesses who want to increase trade between the two. A visa-free work permit and express customs and immigration checks for Canadians going to the EU will help get Canadians attached to any trade/mobility agreement.

Pierre Poilievre is worried that Canadian businesses may need to make their products up to EU standards. Understandable. Businesses could include some type of "EU Certified" logo on their products. For example, bread and dairy products could either be "EU Certified" or not.

The far-right AfD won 47% of the seats in the Saxony-Anhalt parliament in Germany with 44% of the votes. This was using a proportional voting system: MMP. If Saxony-Anhalt had used first-past-the-post like we do in Canada, the far-right AfD could have won over 77 of 83 seats or 93% seats. 1/

This fight feels lonely sometimes because so many people & groups with power, money or influence are sitting it out. Just like they did when Rob Ford was making Toronto famous. Where are the business leaders who care about their worker's safety. Gift link here www.thestar.com/gift-redeem/...

Along University Avenue, hospital CEOs wrote letters supporting those bike lanes because their employees use them. Bike Share operates seven heavy-use “valet” stations in and around the financial district too. These are Bay Street workers, not granola-eating hippies (no offence to granola).

All cycling employees should ask their CEOs, Bay Street or elsewhere, to have the courage hospital leaders did and vocally support bike infrastructure. Where are their voices?

Let’s go even bigger. Civil society foundations with cash that support civic health and well-being should take out ads on, say, morning AM radio stations profiling the kinds of people who ride everyday. Put a face on who’s really at risk.

Ridiculous and absurd, sure, but this “war” is still on, and it has many active fronts.
