SUVs pose a much higher danger to pedestrians than smaller vehicles with a lower hood height, “with children at particular risk of fatal injuries from collisions”, specifically children are “77% more likely” to die.
London is considering charges for drivers of these larger vehicles.

I thought a Grand Parade episode had a clip of an exchange between Council and Staff about how this development wouldn't even pay for itself but should proceed anyway for some nebulous reasons the staffer couldn't articulate well.
Me: What a Kefkaesque nightmare!
Friend: You mean Kafkaesque?
Me: No.
Banning Twitter, Canceling F-35 / Building our own fighter jets, Condemning reckless and unlawful American aggression around the world, and now responsible defense industry policy - all things we apparently can't do because it might attract American ire.
This is hilarious.
Also, completely enraging.
Journos, the next time you question Tim Houston, please ask him this: when you dropped the HST by 1%, was cutting arts and culture funding part of the plan?
Because I want to know if this was a premeditated attack, or just blind incompetence. #nspoli

"Why don't the Liberals, the largest Canadian political party, simply eat the other parties?"
Pretty crazy how important the blockade of a trade route is right now
Maybe he could listen first next time.
Also: most of the budget changes *haven't* been reversed.
By getting this crosser now, he will get his majority via elections, which may be perceived as more legitimate.
No matter what way you protest, it will never be the "right" way in their eyes.

I take my shamrock shaken, not stirred.
Being able to buttonhole a politician is an effective way to enact change. I saw it myself in September 2024 when two women stopped Tim Houston on his way out of the chamber. That brief exchange had Houston reverse course on declaring intimate partner violence an epidemic.
Over the years security at Province House has been beefed up considerably. There are security cameras throughout the building and outside the legislature. The place even has its own police force now. This is clearly an attempt to shield government members from being questioned or criticized.

The supposed explosion of the federal public service looks less explosive if you put it in per capita numbers and draw a line graph back to the mid-80s.
You can impact this budget bill. Present to the Public Accounts Committee. It's your chance to tell this government face-to-face how these cruel cuts will affect you and your family.

Incidentally, a property tax bill is the most efficient way to collect a bus fare.
If it's inconsequential as a fare, it's just as inconsequential on a property tax bill.
They should make a TV show that's just more of Better Call Saul. Only it's not more seasons of Better Call Saul because the story was the correct length, and it's not rewatching Better Call Saul because it's new content, and it's not a spinoff, but it's still somehow more of Better Call Saul. Yknow?
The genocide in Sudan hasn’t been ignored or overlooked, it has been willfully ignored. My dispatch from the region …

I hate their running look at the tax rate with each decision. We're talking about pennies per homeowner per month. We should be looking at the impact of the service associated with each proposal.

Americans: we live in a fallen state—embroiled by sin, cheating, lying, and evil. You cannot trust anyone, not even those who claim to know you best
Canadians: I love my neighbors and my friends!
