“While Russia bombs museums, destroys churches and seeks to erase Ukrainian culture, it should not be allowed to exhibit its own."
When artistic directors pretend to be "above" politics, politics (and morality) will give them a good swift kick.

Ottawa's urban canopy is only ~20–31%. Many neighbourhoods are well below target.
Guelph & Peterborough have urban canopies of 35-40%.
A distressing number of newly planted #trees on Ottawa high streets are not maintained – and die of neglect.

PP, who is always exaggerating the incidence & severity of crime, and whose main slogan was "Canada is broken," accuses Carney of "pushing fear."
PROJECTION (psychology) is the attribution of one's own traits or feelings to someone else.

You know how piffleswipe Pierre Poilievre’s 🍁MAGA band of KuKluxKonvoyers, anti-vaxxers, gun cultists, anti-abortionists and Alberta separatists keep saying 🇨🇦Canada under PM Carney isn’t taken seriously anymore?

In addition, there are now several studies showing that you also have to interrupt driving, and make it less easy. Because with the best will in the world, why would somebody who habitually gets in their car for every trip even notice a free bus, let alone make the effort to learn to use it?

A cyclist rides along the Finch West bike lane. A construction cone bears the sign "Bike Lanes Closed".
"Bike Lanes Closed." We made a simple request of Metrolinx prior to our Ride the Loop event:
"please sweep the new Finch bikelane of loose gravel/debris"
Instead, the bike lane was "closed" --on a road where cars speed at 60+km/h
This is shocking indifference. What do you call it? #onpoli #biketo

From Brave New World:
"And that," put in the Director sententiously, "that is the secret of happiness and virtue—liking
what you've got to do. All conditioning aims at that:
making people like their unescapable social destiny."

Scientists invented a fake disease, and AI fell for it.
Researchers in Sweden created a fictional itchy eye condition called “bixonimania” to test how easily false medical information could spread through AI systems and scientific literature. youtube.com/shorts/bhaKg...

And guess what happens once the Chinese have made enough electric freight trucks for themselves, paying off the cost of the factories? They will export them to the rest of the world at the cost of variable inputs
