Caradonna pointed out that even if the number of new patrol officers was cut by two, the department would still have added 20 officers in the last year. Coun. Marg Gardiner, who voted against the cut along with Alto and councillors Stephen Hammond and Chris Coleman, said it was going down the path of defunding the police. She said the challenges on the street are huge and “we need VicPD to do what they’re doing.” Thompson dismissed any suggestion that the move is about defunding police, noting the police budget has gone up by almost 40% during council’s term.
WE HAVE THE HIGHEST PER CAPITA POLICING COSTS IN B.C. the police budget increase is 5.06% of our 7.28% budget - how the fuck is that "going down the path of defunding the police" What. a. Tool. #yyj #yyjpoli (From here: www.timescolonist.com/local-news/v...)
just saw a news report where the Ontario gov't claimed that "reducing congestion" means "having more cars on the road, even if they move slower" and the back of my skull nearly fell off

Thank you so much to everyone who has chipped in to Bailey's vet bill fund. In just one day I am over halfway to my goal of $2000. I cried three times yesterday at the sheer kindness friends and complete strangers alike have shown. Hoping she can get her first tests by Wednesday.
Fantastic article.
Nice one.

Phase 1 of making Esquimalt more people friendly has definitely made it a better place to bicycle. Time for phase 2 engagement, where the most contentious issue will be car storage. #yyjbike
Car dependency maximizes wear and tear on infrastructure.
Car dependency maximizes suffering when that infrastructure has to close for maintenance.

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive
Used since 1795 by what sort of people, though?
(They’ve now changed the headline from “Mayor apologizes 18 times” to “Mayor apologizes.”)
Wow, what a terrible headline. He didn’t “apologize 18 times,” he said 18 times that he’d already apologized (which, given his behaviour so far, is clearly a claim that should be verified before it’s reported).
In about 3 minutes, the Mayor of Vancouver said “I spoke with Councillor Orr & apologized for my comments” 16 times. That was his answer to every question about why he claimed Sean Orr had handed out illegal drugs to people on the street during Christmas.
