The method to Mark Carney’s madness The memorandum of understanding with Alberta might look like surrender. Look closer

Mark Carney managed to trade a pipeline that will never get built for meaningful progress on industrial carbon pricing and electricity interties — both of which will get more wind and solar built.

Remember when people thought he wasn't good at politics? www.nationalobserver.com/2025/11/27/o...

Sam Balto Has Made Portland’s Bike Buses Famous. Can They Last? The bike bus concept is gaining in popularity, and Portland is now home to about 25 bike buses. This is largely thanks to Sam Balto.

An interesting read on how Sam Balto has made Portland’s bike buses famous. (With a small mention of bike buses for adults commuting to work! Where else do those exist?) www.wweek.com/news/2025/11... #bikebus

A WEEK in this city. How is the strategy of "people just need to drive better" going, folks? Don't talk to me about safety in this city unless you're talking about cars. A city built around cars is a city built for death and injury. #yyc

Family of two girls hit by minivan calling for change to northwest Calgary intersection Alejandra Graham, 18, was walking her little sister, 10-year-old Camilla Graham, to school when they were hit by a minivan in a pedestrian crossing.

A minivan driver hits two sisters, age 18 and 10, while they're in a pedestrian crossing. The quote from police in this story seems... misplaced? "One of the issues we have is regarding people that just stepped in front of vehicles." www.ctvnews.ca/calgary/arti... #yyccc #yycwalk #yyc

Multiple pedestrians struck in Calgary on Thursday; man in his 20s in life-threatening condition Two more pedestrians were struck on Calgary streets Thursday evening, with one suffering life-threatening injuries.

4 people run down in one single day.

There is a war on our streets, and the humans are losing.

Meanwhile, no new money is proposed in the upcoming city budget to tackle this issue.

Zero leadership from #yyccc. www.ctvnews.ca/calgary/arti...

Alberta to invoke notwithstanding clause to shield 3 transgender bills from court challenges | CBC News The Alberta government has tabled legislation that seeks to invoke the notwithstanding clause to shield a suite of bills that affects transgender youth and adults from legal challenges.

I am pretty sure that when Merv Leitch and Peter Lougheed first created the notwithstanding clause, they didn’t mean it to be deployed to bully and oppress literal school children. #ableg #abpoli #TransRightsAreHumanRights #Alberta #notwithstandingclause

Alberta: You have to pay $100 for a COVID-19 vaccine.
Also Alberta: We can't collect payment in person.

So sweet.

Manning report criticizes city's methods of collecting cycling data A Manning Foundation report is accusing the city of poor data collection and a misunderstanding of Calgary’s diverse cycling population.

At last night's @thestrategists.ca event, @jeromyyyc.bsky.social was asked by @sphillipsab.bsky.social sky.social about what Manning Centre beliefs he still holds. He brought up #yycbike lanes (context here calgaryherald.com/news/local-n...).

For a magazine piece, I'm looking to talk with first-time home buyers in #yeg or #yyc who are currently looking or have made a purchase in the past few months. If this is you, or someone you know, please send me a DM or email cailynn.klingbeil@gmail.com. Thanks!!

Elderly pedestrian dies after being struck in downtown crosswalk | CBC News Calgary police are investigating after an elderly woman was killed in a downtown crosswalk on the weekend.

Yet another pedestrian death on Calgary's streets. This article doesn't include the context that last month, three pedestrians were killed in 24 hours and #yyc surpassed last year’s 10-year high for fatal traffic collisions. We need to talk about this more. #yyccc
