YouTube video by CBC British Columbia Why viral proposal to save Pattullo Bridge won't happen

It’s utterly irresponsible of #NewWest councillor Paul Minhas to throw his support behind a “save the Pattullo” campaign. He knows the bridge is dangerously unsafe. He knows it can’t be made safe without spending billions of dollars. youtu.be/OK0y1pjhnpg

Indie bookstores need our support now more than ever. Especially since local libraries are losing funding and hours, and queer books are getting removed.

I am here to speak on Official Community Plan updates, and I support adopting the proposed bylaws. This update is giving the future generation of New West options in housing, where it doesn't always have to be condos or single-family homes, with SFH being the most expensive form of housing out there. I am in my 20s, and none of my peers even consider single family home to be an option because it is so out of reach. If we want a New Westminster where everyone can find themselves a home, the status quo is not ok. It is about planning for the future where everyone has a home in New Westminster, where we have access to services we need by public transit. Building affordable housing in TOAs means not only delivering housing affordability but also affordability in mobility. Good access to public transit with affordable housing creates the synergy for affordability, where residents are given the option to use public transit instead of single occupancy vehicle. This is a great step towards tackling housing, affordability, and sustainability. We say we want more affordable housing, yet affordable non-market projects face just as much red tape and hurdles to overcome as the market projects. It is great to see the removal of regulatory barriers to build 6-storey non-profit housing in some parts of the city, but this should be expanded to the entire city. Allowing such projects only in certain area of the city creates divisiveness in the city rather than fostering inclusive community where people of all backgrounds live together. Again, I support the adoption of the bylaws. Thank you so much for the opportunity to speak.

Yesterday, I spoke at public hearing to support the OCP updates. Here is my speech.

LAST YEAR, I STARTED A JOB TO HELP KIDS WITH CREATIVE WRITING. EACH WEEK, I GO INTO DIFFERENT CLASSROOMS, AND WITH AN ASSORTMENT OF FUN PROMPTS, GUIDE YOUNG WRITERS TO CRAFT THEIR STORIES, POEMS, AND COMICS. IT CAN BE CHALLENGING SOMETIMES, BUT IT'S IMMENSELY REWARDING SEEING THEIR IDEAS COME TO LIFE..

AND SINCE I'M WORKING WITH KIDS, THERE'S THE "ADULT IN THE ROOM" TRAINING: CPR, MANDATED REPORTING... ... AND ACTIVE SHOOTER DRILLS. I HAVEN'T BEEN IN SCHOOL SINCE I WAS A KID. EXPERIENCING AN ACTIVE SHOOTER DRILL FOR THE FIRST TIME FEELS...BLEAK. BANDAGES ON SYMPTOMS INSTEAD OF TREATING THE ROOT CAUSE.

DURING OUR SUMMER TRAINING BEFORE WE STARTED CLASSES, WE HAD WORD OF ICE ACTIVITY IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD, AND DECIDED TO CLOSE AND EVACUATE THE CAMPUS. I RAN ACROSS THE STREET TO TELL OUR NEIGHBORS, A SMALL CAR DEALERSHIP. WE EVENTUALLY FOUND OUT IT WAS A FALSE ALARM.

Thanks for doing that! Hopefull they write something.

@freshetnews.bsky.social Will you cover this in any capacity?

In case it wasn't clear Fontaine from the #NWP (New West Progressives) is a racist ahole.

Daniel Fontaine, everyone.

Cop car almost hit me and 5 other pedestrians when turning right onto Carnarvon from 6th. So glad they got a 9% budget increase. @newwestminster.bsky.social Any chance of finally getting rid of right on red?

My goal for 2026 is to read as many books and have as much reading comprehension as @michaelhobbes.bsky.social .

I finished inking this title page months ago, and I’m finally starting the process of colouring it.

A new protected bike lane on 7th St New West

This New West project checks all the boxes:

✅ Fully protected bike lane
✅ Vehicle access maintained
✅ No lost parking (I don't care about this but it's often the main concern)
✅ One-way orientation reduces rat running on this residential street

Should be the standard for all local bikeways!

I'm loving every moment of this, especially the shit eating grins of the folks being interviewed. Guaranteed they were in on this. Good on them! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nv4m...

First page of 'Plenty of Fangs' by Sprak. We see two young vampires on a living room, one holding a cellphone says “Bro. You gotta help me go thru my matches. You know I’m shit at it.” We then see the phone showing the dating profiles of a vampire in front of a mirror. “Catfish” says the friend. “What. How can you tell?” Asks the first vampire. The friend answers “The reflection is warped. Also a reflection.” Holding the phone, the first vampire says “Oh.”

We see the 3 dating profiles The text of the first one says “GoneBatty. Live in a Cave. Looking For: Robert-Pattinson-Type. About me: I want a hot Vamp BF. I am totes a vamp & like 2 B in form of a bat. Yea”. The friend remarks on the image saying “That’s a guinea pic with wings glued on”. The second dating profile shows a muscular looking vampire the text of the profile says “J. Dandrige. 285/M/LA. Interests: 80s Horror. Nightclubs. Vamp4Vamp”. The first vampire says “Ugh I think we have the same great-great-grand sire”. The third dating profile shows a picture four smiling vampires the text of the profile says “Ebony Dark’ness Dementia Raven Way. Girls Night!!!!!!!!” The friend says “I hate coven shots. Which one is Enoby Darkness??”

We see one more dating profile showing a girl leaning against the wall behind her there’s a crossbow, a rosary, a bible, garlic cloves, and holy water. The text of the profile says “Vanessa H. Sing. Totally-not-a-vamp-hunter. Interests: Crossbows. Ideal Date: We chat, walk & then I take u to a nice stakehouse ;)”. The friend says “Totally-not-a-vamp-hunter. Well... It wouldn’t be the worst date you’ve been on.”. Then we see the first vampire swipe at the phone, which says “Ding! It’s a match!”

Half the month is gone. But there's still 'Plenty of Fangs', by SPRAK!

A young woman sits in a tree with Toronto in the distance. She is reading a comic, sitting in an apple tree, which is covered in different racoons doing different things.

YouTube video by About Here Did these designs crack the code to wood towers?

Excited to share a new video I produced with Urbanarium on their Decoding Timber Towers competition, which challenged teams to design 8–20+ storey buildings out of wood!

Check it out here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQ42...

never put more than 75% effort into a single page. Save the major background for the establishing shot and imply the rest through gradients, color blurs if you have to.

If a background doesn't add anything you couldn't tell the story without, you might not need one. several jobs for one person!

Cover of the Shrink the city book by Natalie Whittle

Page 118 of shrink the city by Natalie whittle

@ifbookspod.bsky.social @michaelhobbes.bsky.social @notalawyer.bsky.social I know you get a lot of requests all the time, but if you could make time to tackle Natalie Whittle's 'Shrink the City'. It is so incredibly misleading between the cover & content, a perfect ibck book.
Thx for your time!
