West Broadway, Winnipeg. For bikes, transit, and livable urban planning. Wrangles data for a living. Wrangles my children when I’m not.
I answered this survey. It was a push poll and didn’t measure what it says at all. No opportunity cost, no alternatives. Bad polling.
A large majority of Winnipeggers want the city to boost its hiring of front-line firefighters next year, a new survey finds.
Hire more firefighters, majority of Winnipeggers say

Two of them. Connected. And then it moves across the landscape. Maybe scale it down and have seating for only one. And make a nice path for it to go on.

Each of them rotates, you know, it ´cycles.´ Let’s call it a bicycle. And the thing it rolls on a path.

I saw a novel-size book on the beginner reader section, and thought it was mis-shelved.

Nope - it’s a novel-size beginner reader book. The 6yo is so happy to have a big book like his brother.

What if they put a toll on the bridges? I’ll bet no one ever thought of that.

Is Alberta just daring the federal government to revive reservation and disallowance?

The last time it was used was probably against reactionary/racist Alberta legislation. (Anti-doukhbor laws, if I’m remembering correctly)

At a school event. The genius administration put the lost and found on tables on the way to where the event is.

One pair of mittens we didn’t even know was missing: found!

Although I made this abomination, I blame my children.

Tasted good though.

It's finally here. A history of the Nova Scotia lobster fishery.

Morton is truly an historian's historian, and from the installments I've seen, the book is going to have riches of social history, politics, economics, and even some marine biology.

The guy in the pool lobby is going for a world record in ‘number of two litre pop bottles you can fill with water from a water fountain and carry in dollarama bags.”

If he manages to carry these out in one trip I am going to be extremely impressed. With him and with the dollarama bags.

Imagine if an unelected board gave the Foot Locker formal veto powers over what the owners of Polo Park do with their parking lot.

It’s time to rethink slip lanes

While slip lanes facilitate vehicle movement, they have a significant impact on the safety and comfort of pedestrians. Though the City of Toronto has been proactive in removing or modifying slip lanes, there is still much more work to do.
