After watching what voting for hate did to the country south of us, I sure hope we have a majority of who vote opposite of hate in Canada. I’ll never understand the “as long as “they” get punished, I don’t care what happens to the rest of us” mentality. We should vote for what’s best for all of us.

Paris says yes to 500 more car-free streets!

In Sunday’s referendum, 67% of Parisians voted to reclaim city space for walking and cycling. The decision means 10,000 parking spaces will be removed, continuing a shift that’s already halved car traffic since 2000.

Apart from climate and environmental concerns about fracking, there are also questions about how it would be regulated … unfortunately, the government refused to answer those questions. Government secrecy under Premier Houston’s supermajority in Nova Scotia is really bad news.

NEW: This is brilliant from Trudeau.

"Today, the US launched a trade war against Canada - their closest partner & ally, their closest friend. At the same time, they're talking about working positively with Russia, appeasing Vladimir Putin - a lying, murderous dictator. Make that makes sense." 💥

There is not much one can do in this world to make a dent or a ripple but one can delete their x account. I did not want my account to be included in any X statistic to their advertisers - whether used or not - so now my account can not be bought or sold. It is no more.

I was fortunate enough to teach part-time at The Mount and I had an overhead I used in my Intro to Business: “Power Corrupts. Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely.” I put it up during the section on Ethics in business. Years later one of my students recited it to me downtown. A proud moment.

Dal prof, Dr. Karen Foster: "One gets the sense that it is not “the public” that these institutions are meant to be accountable to, but the government. And this is where the door is being opened to a disturbing level of government influence over university teaching and research."
