One of the most influential programs in television history, the success of that first season owes a lot to the many Canadians who were involved in the show.

The man on the left wears a suit and tie, leaning forward, while the man on the right, in a floral shirt and blazer, lounges casually. Behind them, several individuals, including a woman with long hair and others in casual attire, are seated or standing, with framed pictures and a lamp visible on the walls.

Portland is so full of brilliant bike people. At Bike Happy Hour last night, John Fortes (John the Johnster on socials) showed me his amazing, articulating front light that he designed, 3D printed, and built himself!

It's not that there IS #autowa traffic, it's that there MIGHT be #autowa traffic that you need to wait. It's how traffic signals are designed in this city.

September 2020, a mother wrote an email to her state representative asking for action, after a woman was hit by a driver near her home.
Five years later in September 2025, her 16 year old son is killed by a driver at the same intersection.

5 years before her son died there, a mother tried to make an intersection safer

5 years before teen was killed crossing the street, his mom asked for safer roads

In September 2020, Caty Anderson typed out a short email to her state representative, lamenting that a woman was hit by a car near her family’s Kensington home.

Law makers, judges, juries most likely also drivers, so they would want leniency as well they they were charged.
