Brian’s arts incubator fund also sounds familiar, where have I heard that before… 😁

Paging @aztrumpet.bsky.social

It seems indulgent, but on the other hand, when you don't make car payments... 🤷‍♀️

Thank you for your wisdom!

I want this, but we already have 14 bikes in our household, what should I do?

I'm also supporting Heather, though I fully agree on ranked choice voting...

Sad I didn’t make it to #YIMBYtown this year, but at least I can relive the magic through my coffee mug. @housingnowto.bsky.social @russilwvong.bsky.social @nzorach.bsky.social

Join us on Sunday, September 21, 2025 for our second Kidical Mass YYC ride. This family friendly bike ride will start at 10:30 am. Meet at Deville Coffee Kensington at 10 am and ride together through Sunnyside before heading over to Riley Park Playground.

Ward 7 could have been so easy. It's been demoralizing to watch things go off the rails due to petty politicking, classic progressive purity testing, and old grudges (and frankly, a ton of sexism).

Are we ever going to learn our lesson?

A well-deserved endorsement!

I think the bigger question is which mayoral candidate is best equipped to negotiate with the province?

Or is that even possible in this political climate? The best active transport plan is useless if the province can block it through legislation.

"A municipality is a corporation."

We are electing a board of directors in October.

McElroy is bang on.

City councils are not parliaments, which are designed to be antagonistic. City councils are boards of governance. Different rules and standards apply.

Opinion: The premiers are using bike lanes as a political scapegoat Safe cycling infrastructure saves lives, but sadly, many politicians are ignoring the facts

She’s really the best…

Is it really about bike lanes Alberta?

Kidical Mass YYC is only 11 days away. We've got a new linktree set up & are looking for volunteers to help marshal: linktr.ee/kidicalmassyyc

Hoping some of my #yycbike friends are up for helping us give these kiddos a great first ride!

Gonna unpack this a bit. There are at least two groups of left-leaning folks here that @mikepmoffatt.bsky.social is mixing up.

1)left-leaning housing policy folks like @cwhitzman.bsky.social, Alex Hemingway who want tenure neutrality because housing (and tax) policy should be equitable to renters

I laughed out loud at this

This is a GREAT reason to make 30kph the default speed limit throughout the city!

Don't forget LEAFBLOWERS!

The main source of noise in cities is… cars. Dense walkable and bikeable neighbourhoods allow people to reduce their vehicle use and thus the noise level of their environment.

This is my entire parenting philosophy

I did a Jane's Walk about them a few weeks ago, and I'm hoping to do a repeat of it in August. I'll let you know when that happens. bsky.app/profile/kaph...

I learned this a few years ago when restrictive covenant litigation popped up in my neighbourhood. I was mad enough about it that I now a mid-life law student, with a fixation on the legal mechanics of restrictive covenants, and the way they perpetuate all kids of segregation.

Not to mention that these effective solutions are also relatively simple, inexpensive, and easy to implement (once you get past the political hurdles).

“Making it easier to get around by transit, bicycle and on foot is not an ideological stance, it’s an acknowledgement that space on the road has to be shared among many users. However, instead of accepting this reality, too many city politicians fight rearguard actions to preserve the status quo. “

I was there yesterday actually, there are racks just to the right of the doors.

Is that secure?

Time will tell…

Superman is the story of an immigrant who grew up in Kansas, landed a low-paying job as a reporter in Metropolis, and still had time for a hobby because urban housing was affordable.

S has the same bike! We should meet you at the circus sometime.
