Shocking discovery:
reducing poverty… improves people’s lives.

Canadian experience with vehicle headlights and glare at night Transport Canada wants to learn how headlight glare affects road users and what vehicle or lighting features may influence how people experience it at night.

I just completed this survey from Transport Canada regarding headlight glare. Please consider filling out and sharing the survey. We need to reduce the too bright LED lights on the road - for everyone's safety. Have your say!

It's awful! I am angry that those lights were ever approved by Transport Canada- if indeed they were inspected in the first place. They are a safety hazard for drivers and pedestrians alike.

“Private surgical centres want to do the least complex operations, the ones they can get done quickly and standardize, @simonenoch.bsky.social explained. “They don’t want patients with complex needs because they can’t profit from them.” #skpoli www.discoverestevan.com/articles/res...

Media & police commonly report that “speed wasn’t a factor in a crash.” What they mean is the driver wasn’t technically breaking the speed limit, or at least not too much.

But speed is ALWAYS a factor, in how much distance is needed to stop, how well crash victims can be seen, and whether they die.
