Argh. Why won’t @winnipegfreepress.com profile progressive candidates like @nat4mynarski.bsky.social or @odingwall.bsky.social or Noah Redden? Is there an agenda here?

What would your life be like if you couldn't drive? I'm learning all about this, as both my parents give up their car and licenses. Listen to this episode to learn more.

No. She’s referring to Doug Ford threatening to take away the bike lanes

This was such an amazing tour of the bike infrastructure in Toronto. Janice Lukes likes to threaten us saying “you’re lucky we’re not Toronto.” I dunno Auntie Janice. I’m pretty jealous of TO today.

I got this sweet package with a certificate from Michael Jen’s, city councillor in Edmonton. More respect than my own councillor, Jeff Browaty, who told me I should take the bus or drive in winter because he won’t spend an extra dime clearing bike lanes “just for me”.
