This is one of the flaws with subsidizing private EVs without investing in any other transportation changes like transit or walkability. The subsidies are great at getting people into EVs, but now municipalities and governments are on the hook for increases in maintaince costs.
Then jersey him and feed him a few more.
As a kid I’d spend a lot of time in local forests, go to a local park to play. The benefit of these spaces is you can have all your friends meet up with you. Manhunt in a 1/2 acre backyard would be way more boring than access to various parks and forested areas.
There are also activities like sports, camps, boy scouts/girl guides that kids can participate in to get outdoors time.
Cause it is impossible to raise kids in an apartment. Just look at new york city.
Which could be 10, 2000 sq/ft single story units or 40, 2000 sq/ft apartments in a 4 story building. We cant just keep letting cities build outward and cover farmlands with endless swathes of single family homes and barren lawns.
I get the sentiment here, but a half acre is a lot of land and the development of large suburban lots is a big thing that contributed to the housing crisis in north america. We need to diversify housing and increase the number of 1000-2000 sqft apartments as well. Relatively small homes on smaller lots (1/4 acre and under) should also be being built.
I’d much rather chat with a stranger than stare at my phone while waiting around in public. Connecting with strangers over some simple things can be surprisingly heart warming in an increasingly isolating world. Even just chatting about a good deal on soup or enjoying recent sunshine makes my day a little bit better. If you chose to chat with me, my day would be better.
They are woke because they have potential to improve lives regardless of class, race, or gender. Obviously they should have to “earn” those improvements by buying a car instead.
A similar rule applies to not parking too closely to stop signs in my area. There aren’t any extra signs or painted curbs, drivers are just expected to ask themselves, is this too close to that stop sign? I don’t see how crosswalks are any different. If you give yourself 2 car lengths from the crosswalk you should be good for most cars.
I think carney wants policy to speak for itself and parties and mps to vote balanced between how their party and their riding expects them to. I hope it helps stir up the us vs them mentalities and make mps vote a little more independently from their party.
Families wouldn’t know demons walked among them until the photos were produced. Usually by then the demon clued in and left its host without a trace before it could be exorcised.
He waits until the federal election ends and then acts like this. Maybe Ontario will be due for another, this time needed, emergency provincial election
I hope other first nations and communities send her more letters like this. If you want to be american so badly just move there and leave the rest of us out of it.
Mine is the the first 3 panels until she suddenly decides no more scritches and becomes the 4th panel.
So why isn’t he focused on the big issues facing Ontario right now like housing, the drug crisis, the cost of living? How does fighting bike lanes help anyone in Ontario?
What right do you have Mr. Ford overstepping a municipal government elected by the people?
“We get democratically elected, and some judge slaps an injunction on bike lanes. Don’t the judges have anything better to do than worry about if we’re taking out bike lanes or not taking out bike lanes?” Ford said.
Yes they do have better things to do, but you’re the one overstepping your power Doug. The people and politicians in Toronto fought for decades for those bike lanes and these judges are doing their job in protecting those decisions and the rights of people who depend on those lanes.
Yes fiscally responsible like a ridiculous hwy that he needs to make new laws to build, a ridiculous tunnel under an existing hwy, removing newly built bike lanes, spening millions to rush booze to shelves to undermine a government labor strike, various land scandas. The list goes on and on highlighting these excellent examples of fiscal responsibility.
I’d argue the DLCs did more than you imply. The extra modes of transit gave more options to move people, painting a custom park area made cities feel more realistic than premade square parks, universities could be a great centerpiece for a neighborhood. Its not like vanilla was unplayable, but the DLC defintely added more creativity for me.
Ford over reaches his provincal authority to meddle in Toronto affairs (a grudge he holds because Toronto was too smart to elect him mayor). Now ford is upset when our judges defend cyclists, spent tax dollars, and defends a municipality’s right to handle it own affairs.
Remind me again how conservatives are fiscally responsible by removing brand new infrastructure? Remind me again how any of this is “small government”? Or does he only want a small government when it means paving highways?
Carney even mentions this fact during the conference stating something along the lines “Canada is the US’ biggest client”. I can only imagine how hard Carney must have bit his tongue anytime Trump rambled wrong facts about how economies work.
