Une magnifique journée aujourd'hui avec de nouvelles infos sur le projet de Tramway de Québec : TramCité!
Je fais un thread ici pour résumer les annonces de dernières heures à propos du projet.
D'ailleurs, voici la nouvelle carte du projet ainsi que le site web de CDPQi.

The experience of using transit is just so much better with modern technology that tells you which routes to take and how long you have to wait.
I’m not that old but I remember calling numbers at bus stops to get the scheduled (not actual) arrival time!

“During the election, Danielle Smith asked Trump to pause his tariff war to benefit Pierre Poilievre — but not stop it entirely, which would benefit all Canadians.”
Neither Smith nor Poilievre have been investigated for this.

Just got this from the Canadian government:
“While Global Affairs Canada regrets the decision, the group was travelling independently and was not representing the Government of Canada.”
Israeli officials ASSAULTED a Canadian member of Parliament!!

Yesterday, there was a horrific antisemitic attack on Jewish folks at Bondi beach.
But the hero, Ahmed al-Ahmed, showed us that even in the face of unimaginable horror, we can choose to care about each other, protect each other and push back on hate.
Unfortunately, not everyone is learning this:

The older I get, the more my politics mature from childish, naïve beliefs like "the world is complicated and leaders have to make hard decisions" to more serious, adult principles like "hurting people is bad and helping people is good."

We need an alternative to the 5 big banks that make record profits while charging us excessive fees. That's why postal banking is at the heart of our plan to stop price gouging: breaking the dominance of the big banks, strengthening the postal service, & saving you money.
Crunching the numbers on postal banking in Canada - CCPA
Among the many proposals to transform Canada Post, one stands out: postal banking. It’s a program that could contribute to solving multiple policy problems at once—help support our postal service with stable revenue, boost financial inclusion and enhance public services, and, unlike conventional banks that put profit first, create accessible public interest banking services.

Nice to see that Globe and Mail columnist Robyn Urback is allowed to once again just totally twist my words and falsely smear me as antisemitic with zero professional consequences.
This is the second time she’s done this to me personally, and she’s done this to others too.

In a broad sense, on a day like today, please take care of each other, stand with Jewish folks who are hurting after this horrific antisemitic attack, and reject any attempts to co-opt that pain and trauma to drive more division and hate.

Thinking of the Jewish community after this horrific attack during such a special celebration 💔 I’m so sorry.

In Montreal the winter cycling experience depends a lot on where you’re going.
Separated lanes (like this one) in bike-friendly boroughs are typically very usable the day after the storm (often the day of).
Painted lanes typically fare worse, and some boroughs seem to care less in general.

People sometimes say "don't complain". And the TTC has just made excuses instead of listening and showing leadership.

Yesterday, I testified on anti-feminist ideology before a House of Commons committee.
The internet handled it…about as well as you’d expect.
The part that I didn’t necessarily expect, however, was the unhinged nature of some of the questions I’d be asked.

Le PQ est tellement dégoûtant à tous les niveaux. Les rhétoriques de PSPP enrichissent la haine, la division, la peur et le harcèlement. C’en est similaire au Trumpisme. Jamais je n’aurais cru que ce soit le parti social-démocrate ouvert d’antan qui apporte ce style de politique ici…

hot take: poorly maintained walking/biking infrastructure is MORE dangerous than not having it at all because you have to use the car infrastructure and then also worry about people driving more aggressively around you because you aren't in "your" space.

Carney rolled back major climate policies for Alberta, now! In exchange for a lil industrial carbon price increase and the BS that is carbon capture!

I'm not convinced that wasn't Carney's plan all along. It isn't Ottawa that said no to Alberta. "Now you run along, Danielle, and make friends and get it done." Oh wait, you can't? Oh well then, at least you tried.
