I've filtered Ottawa's traffic collision data to show only collisions with injuries for each year, and then added the speed camera locations present in those years.

It looks like speed cameras have made the roads much safer.

you could fact check this β€” there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin β€” or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric

It’s a predictable pattern. Suburban and rural (mainly) voted to spend more, get less, align themselves with private interest to fund a project that doesn’t affect them, delivering lower value at the expense of urban quality of life and wrecking women’s pro hockey in the capital.

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk

It is *obscene* that that beast wearing the skin of a man called Elon Musk was just awarded a trillion dollar pay-package after he personally signed the death warrant of hundreds of thousands of innocents earlier this year.

New polling on data centres finds 72% of Europeans want a measure requiring new data centres be built only if they’re powered by new and additional renewable energy.

⚠️ People aren’t willing to trade the climate for unsustainable data centre growth.

Changed his views maybe…but it hasn’t changed that he is exactly like Trump in wanting to enrich himself and his friends.

Just a corrupt and ineffective politician actively making things worst for most people.

New York Mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani bodied Andrew Cuomo on live television.

According to Cuomo the sexual harassment and rape of women is not a serious or mature topic.

Hitting go on Lansdowne 2.0: Key details from the city's final report | CBC News The final reports about updating Ottawa's Lansdowne Park have been made public. Here's what they say about the cost, the financing, the contractors and more.

The math on Lansdowne 2.0 is all lies and gimmicks.

Like, $6 million from raising the hotel tax. That doesn't actually have anything to do with Lansdowne.

Say we raised property taxes 2% and just said it all goes to Lansdowne 2.0, is that Lansdowne 2.0 paying for itself? Of course not. 🧡

Justin Ling: Canada needs to make its voice heard around the world. Here’s one clear way to do that. To create stronger connections internationally, Canada can’t rely on the United States. We need to use our own soft diplomacy tools

Trump has functionally killed America's international broadcasting apparatus.

Russia and China are making up the difference.

if we still care about democracy and liberalism abroad, countries like Canada need to step up. www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

My favourite way to explore the city’s history over time. Selecting the β€œAerial photos” feature and using the slider to move back in time…all the way back to 1928!!

So much change in only a 100 years.

$6.6 trillion in the hands of 400 people is the result of deliberate policy choices.

The big ugly law is giving even more tax breaks for the rich and corporate loopholes to fuel this inequality.

Entire generations are being locked out while billionaires cash in.

Mamdani: Why should I debate Trump's puppet when I could debate Trump himself? If Trump is serious about this, he should come to New York City. We can have as many debates as he wants about why he is cutting snap benefits for hungry New Yorkers just to fund tax cuts for his billionaire donors

CTV News interviewing/platforming a passerby who asserts that these assaults are happening more and more is irresponsible fear mongering if it isn’t actually true.

There exists lots of data regarding these types of assaults and, if I remember correctly, violent offences are down in Ottawa.

As long as preventing harm doesn’t lead to unintended suspension of people’s rights. We need robust (and not corporate) systems!

Cost of Trump's D.C. Occupation: $1.1M per day.

Cost to operate public housing for D.C.'s entire homeless population: $169,226 per day.

It's not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Every reputable expert I know considers mRNA vaccine technology to be one of the most revolutionary advances in medicine in our lifetimes. Its inventors won the Nobel Prize in 2023. Shutting it down now is pointless self-harm to humanity.

HHS Winds Down mRNA Vaccine Development Under BARDA

 

WASHINGTON, DCβ€”AUGUST 5, 2025β€”The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) today announced the beginning of a coordinated wind-down of its mRNA vaccine development activities under the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), including the cancellation and de-scoping of various contracts and solicitations. The decision follows a comprehensive review of mRNA-related investments initiated during the COVID-19 public health emergency.

 

β€œWe reviewed the science, listened to the experts, and acted,” said HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. β€œBARDA is terminating 22 mRNA vaccine development investments because the data show these vaccines fail to protect effectively against upper respiratory infections like COVID and flu. We’re shifting that funding toward safer, broader vaccine platforms that remain effective even as viruses mutate.”

The U.S. wellness industry is valued at $2 trillion.

That’s far more than pharmaceuticals ($634 billion).

You know, it’s almost like wellness has filled the void where a functioning healthcare system should beβ€”and we’re worse off for it.

Americans die younger and live less healthy lives.

The message here is that they don't consider your money part of "the economy".

But when a corporation steals your money by intentionally misleading you, it IS part of "the economy".
