Missed this article last year in VOX, definitely a lot of the same issues discussed in the Calgary blanket rezoning repealing debate

America’s fastest-growing suburbs are about to get very expensive
Sprawl made suburbia affordable. Now it’s breaking it. Here’s what a new vision of the suburbs could look like.

Waving instead of pressing? Some way to make beg buttons at least tolerable?! Seen in Mississauga

Careful, I think the City of Calgary is looking for new ideas for their “shared responsibility” campaign …

In 2018, Jeromy Farkas called the Olympics “the ultimate politician vanity project.” Not anymore! In the new Sprawlcast, we speak with Mayor Farkas about how his position has changed and why he's thinking about the possibility of a 2038 bid (with caveats).

Listen and/or read! #yyccc
Should Calgary press play on a future Olympic bid? | The Sprawl
After opposing 2026, Farkas considers 2038.

Not just an Ontario problem … I still remember the stupidity of the dumb patch fiasco with the Calgary Police Service and spineless leadership that let them get away with something so trivial and yet important to the community. Said a lot about what accountability looked like.

This was going to be a complimentary post about how Mississauga finally has some nice buses, but I gotta get off with these hazardous chemicals 🧪⚛️

For a magazine piece, I'm looking to talk with #yyc families who live in newer communities about the amenities (or lack thereof) in their neighbourhoods. (Playgrounds, grocery stores, childcare, etc.) If this is you or someone you know, please send a DM or email [email protected]. Thanks!!

Thinking back to the Winter Portraits we did in 2014, showcasing the average Calgarians that choose to cycle all year round. #yycbike #WinterBikeDay

Today #yyccc was told that a full repeal of blanket rezoning puts over $800 million in federal funding at risk, including $251 million in transit funding. In addition, it will jeopardize #yyc being awarded its share of $20 billion in transit funding. We quite literally can't afford to be NIMBYs.

An image we won't soon forget. Attorney General Pam Bondi refused to look at Epstein survivors pictured behind her on the Hill today.

Wasn't AECOM supposed to have a detailed design by now? 😬
NEW: The City of Calgary is opening public engagement on the proposed downtown alignment for the Green Line LRT.

The proposal calls for an elevated LRT line from the Event Centre down 10 Ave S and running up 2nd St SW.

Aaaand... now it's closed, to the surprise of no one. Well done 😂 #yycbike
LOL... 311 sent it on to Calgary Parking... that'll fix it. Sigh. 😜 #yycbike
Is there a 311 to put in flexi posts or something? 🙄 #yycbike

Nice riding conditions on the Fish Creek loop from downtown. A little slush in the shade, but nothing too crazy #yycbike
