Vancouver skies and colours today at Grimmet Park. May you find time to contemplate beauty each day.
Good news! They have been returned by the @cityofvancouver.bsky.social after a few phone calls and we will paint them this weekend
Thanks all!
Hey @cityofvancouver.bsky.social why did your workers remove these beloved chess pieces today? We were just about to paint them again as we do every year - they were originally funded by a neighborhood grant ?!?! What on earth?
I sometimes want to quit the internet but then things like this make my day. This is going to blow the minds of my bookclub. West coast women who read seem to have a thing for both owls and Pedro...π

Thank you for being here and doing such a great job reporting.
We're expecting another update from Vancouver Police later tonight about the tragedy at Lapu Lapu Day.
After that, we probably won't know much more for many hours.
Given the global attention already on it, a lot of speculation will inevitably happen.
The best thing you can do is not amplify it.
Heart breaking in #Vancouver tonight

Vancouver blooms bright,
By-election results wait,
Sky blue, hearts uncertain.

If youβre a senior, pregnant, have a disability, you can get priority access for voting. If you donβt see the sign for it, ask a staffer. #vanpoli
And no one else is available to come in to work? Imagine if this was an earthquakeβ¦
I've heard back from the City of Vancouver.
They confirmed that they have approximately 265 staff "currently in the field" working the byelection.
That's a 79% dropoff from the 2017 byelection.
Odd they didn't mention that in their original explanation to media as to why lines were so long.
Get out to vote in the @cityofvancouver election tomorrow!!

Thanks! thatβs a great list - I did scroll through @lanefab.com follows and made it to K before my eyes crossed #platformexhaustion
10,000 parents wanted to know at 6am if school was on today and VSB is not on Bluesky. No post on Facebook, nothing on the websites.
I made the move over to Bluesky but can't find out any information on hyper local issues - who do I need to follow in Vancouver to hear about school closures, snow conditions etc? I left X but not finding the #bcstorm and #localnews.... please suggest for #vancouver and #metrovancouver. Thanks!
Snow day in Vancouver with my little friends - where are all the #bcstormwatch folks on Bluesky?
All this talk of tariffs is getting me thinking about how we can support folks in growing more food, community supported agriculture and seafood and local manufacturing and production - remember the Vancouver local food hub proposal?

A short thread on going beyond #NetZero to build projects that are #NetPositive
First, I like to talk about "Projects" vs "Buildings".
It's an important distinction, because its not just about the physical artifact, but also:
where it is located?
what does it replace?
