Davos feels like a long time ago.

Good point. I had to work with what I could find. I don’t have a comms team helping me make it look like service and affordability are priorities in Ottawa. 👍

@jenstden.bsky.social doing the good work again.

News is often framed on X, Reddit, and Facebook by a small handful of coordinated accounts.

They sell outrage, our brains get dopamine, and suddenly Russia's Ukraine invasion seems sensible.

A bad outcome, but still not the worst the mind can conjure.

It’s a brave thing to wear your AirPods into the airplane bathroom.

It would be great to deamalgamate Ottawa so Mark Sutcliffe didn't need to be led on guided tours of random suburban intersections in Stittsville like he's on a royal tour of the Commonwealth

Horrific. Just saw this on national news. I’d like to think city leaders will respond with steps to make Ottawa streets safer, but they just voted against some. #ottawa #autowa

“Our furnace still isn’t working.”

“It was working great when we were there yesterday. Like good as new. You must have done something.”

Unless Mark Carney is now being played by Gil Gerard for photo ops. ;)

Congrats to Team Canada and Sault Ste Marie’s Brad Jacobs! 🇨🇦 #curling #soosky #olympics

Canada has nothing to be proud of either.

Elon Musk Predicts AI Will Outpace Human Intelligence as Early as This Year - Decrypt Tesla CEO Elon Musk reiterated claims that rapid AI advances and humanoid robots will reshape work, energy demand, and the economy.

Science fiction has presented us with two incredible possibilities. Technology that restructures material at the molecular level to create food, eliminating want and hunger. Or technology that thinks independently and eventually destroys us. That the techbros would create the second one makes sense.

WOW!

Rakhi Pancholi pulled zero punches in her response to Smith’s address last night!

“Cut the bullshit and call an election!”

Changes in road deaths from 2019 to 2024” shown on a dark asphalt background. A vertical bar chart ranks EU countries by percentage change in road deaths. Most countries show decreases, displayed in green bars, ranging from minus 35 percent at the top to minus 1 percent near the bottom. Three countries show increases in red: Estonia plus 33 percent, Ireland plus 22 percent, and Spain plus 2 percent. The European Commission logo appears in the bottom right corner.

We're committed to halving road deaths by 2030.

To achieve this, we are putting forward a set of measures, such as:

🔹Strengthening enforcement of road traffic rules
🔹Addressing new forms of mobility
🔹Prioritising road safety research

If city leaders won’t provide it, we’ll have to bring hope of our own.

Sometime, years from now, Ottawa’s leadership is going to discover that removing cars is the key to attracting foot traffic and increasing the vibrancy of public spaces. The only question is how many businesses and restaurants will needlessly go out of business before then? #ottawa #ottcity

The Poulin hug line is breaking me

Sudden death is up there with penalties as crappy ways for a team game to end.

Ottawans deserve so much better than the city leadership we're getting.

Yoon Suk Yeol: South Korea's ex-president jailed for life over martial law attempt Yoon Suk Yeol's December 2024 martial law bid fundamentally damaged South Korea's democracy, a judge told the court.

Inspiring.

This needs to be shut down. Google needs to start taking responsibility for replicating and repeating mis and disinformation. They need to prioritise legitimate, safe, authoritative sources, not whatever feeds the algorithm best. This is why Google search sucks so hard 😓

Omg. Wolverhampton! #epl

Olympic hockey demonstrates how good the NHL could be, but isn’t Olympic hockey with top pros makes clear to you that most nights, everyone in the NHL is going at maybe 70 per cent

Cathal Kelly said it best: "It feels like Olympic hockey has gotten better, and NHL hockey has gotten much worse."

Maybe we were wrong about the letting professionals play Olympic hockey. #CANvCHE #olympichockey

Coverage on @onesoccer.bsky.social of Athletico Ottawa’s history-making match for the Concacaf Champions Cup is starting with a slightly embarrassing explanation for why they can’t use their home arena at Lansdowne. 😑 #ottawa #concacafchampions
