It’s definitely stupidity of some variety.

Stupidity is contagious.

This is exactly why I posted it here. Pretty hard to argue that another Trump term (or a Trump adjacent individual being elected) via this violation of basic democratic principles would not have global implications.

This can’t be legal, right? Either way, keep pumping that national debt!

Canadians definitely haven’t been showing enough gratitude since these tariffs on their products came into effect!

““Prime Minister Carney used the term ‘war.’ It’s not a word we use, right? We don’t talk about it that way. For us, it’s business, it’s economics,” Greer told the FT News Briefing podcast.”

I guess we could just do some “business” and “economics” and stop sending electricity and oil to the US…

Textbook dominance move. “We are going to hit you and you can’t hit us back. If you do, we will hit you again.”

Reading this, it seems that Canada does have a few things that the USA needs…

I agree on all fronts. Anecdotally, when I encounter the worst, most dangerous drivers on a weekday morning, they typically have young kids in the car and are likely rushing to do drop off.

Is that the same mayor who was pushing for RTO to prop up the downtown economy for property owners?

Complete waste indeed. Nothing worthwhile that could be spent on instead 🙄 I wonder if Ford understands what an opportunity cost is. Actually, I don’t wonder. I’m quite sure he has no idea.

There’s also all this discussion about who will pay for this nonsense. Will it be the city or the province? The real answer is taxpayers.

Snapping Senator was one of my favourites.

I really hope we have decent data on traffic since the bike lanes were put in so that we can see whether removing them helps. Induced demand strongly suggests it will not help but the fact that Ford is doing this in the first place demonstrates that he is not influenced by evidence or science in general.

Ah, that’s probably what’s happening here. Thanks.

I don’t think there’s a notification that they’ve been added. So how would they know what to add a notification to?

I can’t wait for the carbrain victim complex to conjure up complaints of being punished for speeding. In Ontario, there were drivers (publicly, in news articles) saying that they’re essentially too distracted while driving to keep track of the speed limit and their speed relative to it. This was their argument against speed cameras. Incredible.

In Toronto, Doug Ford is about to rip out bike lanes in a misguided attempt to improve traffic congestion. There is currently no evidence that the bike lanes made traffic worse and there is strong evidence that induced demand will return traffic congestion to pre-bike lane removal levels fairly quickly. Advertising preys on stupidity, but we’ve also got a stupidity problem.

I’ve got an EHX Qtron. It’s great but the footprint is pretty huge. I also really like the Sample and Hold mode on the Spatial Delivery. Maybe it’s time to make the switch…

The picture in that article is definitely Xan Mccurdy…
