In recent years, Bilbao has quietly built a cycling network shaped by lessons from the Netherlands: calmed where it can be, protected where it must be, and always comfortable and connected.

The result? You can now pedal across the city on infrastructure made for everyoneβ€”not just the fit and brave.

Lunenburg mayor says cutting Bluenose II funding is the wrong move As part of the recent provincial budget, a $1.189 million grant for vessel operations and crew salaries was slashed by 20 per cent, almost $240,000.

Tim Houston is wiping away our history, this is truly awful.🀬

Houston and his government overspent and we all pay the price for their slash & burn politics.

28th Mech Brigade of the UGF πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦:

β€œKostiantynivka. Russian forces struck a residential area with phosphorus. Then hit it with a 1.5-ton FAB-1500 bomb.

~2,000 civilians remain in the city. They are also hunted by FPV drones.

The man on the bicycle was clearly a civilian.

This is terror.”

β€œJust eight days before these Visitor Information Centre staff at the airport were unceremoniously laid off, they were visited by the Premier himself, who told them to keep up the good work.
We guess he meant to add: "... for one more week."
Is this the kind of respect our Premier has for the public service in Nova Scotia?”

Photo attached of Tim Houston posting with two staff members (their faces are covered) at the airport.

Color portrait of Tim Horton wearing a Toronto Maple Leafs hockey jersey with a large white maple leaf logo and the words β€œToronto Maple Leafs” on the chest. He faces the camera with a slight smile. The jersey is dark blue with white lacing at the collar. The background is a solid blue studio backdrop.

On this day in 1974, Tim Horton died.
The founder of the Tim Hortons restaurant chain, he played 24 seasons in the NHL and won four Stanley Cups with the Toronto Maple Leafs. He was posthumously inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame.

Then, shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three
shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting
shalt be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two,
excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out.

Color action photograph of Toller Cranston mid-jump against a bright blue sky. He is airborne with one knee bent and the other leg extended behind, arms stretched outward in a balletic pose. He wears a red sleeveless outfit over a yellow long-sleeve top, with black skate boots and white blades visible. Behind him are two tall curved modern buildings and a Canadian flag on a pole at left. The buildings’ glass and concrete surfaces reflect daylight, and the scene is sharply lit.

Toller Cranston dominated the Canadian skating world of the 1970s.
Known for his unique skating style and his individualist approach to skating, he helped bring more artistry to men's figure skating during his career.
This is his story.

Think you're buying Canadian? That grocery item may actually be from the U.S. | CBC News The push to buy Canadian is loud and clear, but are those local-looking products the real deal? CBC Marketplace exposes how some popular foods that seem Canadian are actually made in the U.S. Experts ...

When I buy anything from the grocery store, I look for Product of Canada, this means it is entirely, or almost entirely, Canadian content (98% or more). I also buy locally made products, products from the UK, Australia, Scotland etc. #Canada

Read the labels carefully.
