a group of young women are riding bikes down a dirt road . Alt: The 4 preteen girls from the movie Now and Then happily riding their bikes together on a dirt road.

I’ll watch anything with a girl on a bike

Truly.
Another impact it has is through bike brigade - we pick up leftover produce from the Saturday market and deliver to community fridges. Fridges that are usually empty on arrival, and empty again by the next day.

This is awful 😔

I’m sorry - I missed that you had experienced such a loss. Losing our furry family members is so hard 💔

Ugh. I’ve seen her in the Halifax Examiner comments, criticizing them for being critical of him. I suspect there’s a deeper connection there.

He keeps telling on himself by doing ridiculous things like referring to residents as “shareholders” and dismissing “two sheets of ice” and a community space as things that don’t have value.

The bridge!!
And South Park must be broken in one direction. Should be closer to Vernon numbers.

I can’t say for sure!
There are some really bad ones out there, even on newer infrastructure (e.g., Almon at Gladstone). I find this happening on MUPs especially egregious because as bad as these are on a bike, they’re way worse with a wheelchair.

This is the hopeful take on this whole diverter debacle

Thank you! I’m so glad it resonated.

Hell yes

Thanks for sharing!

The premier of Nova Scotia’s ENTIRE plan is based on oil and gas extraction. He just said it on air. That is his only plan. Our biggest industry is tourism and he just cut $$ to tourism, arts & conservation (all reasons why people come here).

The less Nova Scotians know about their past & feel connected to place, the easier it is for a government to redefine conservation areas & penalize people for not aligning use of land with exploitation.

History is dangerous, writers in schools are dangerous, artistic critique of power is dangerous.

Always appreciate your insightful analysis, sujo!

Houston is smart. Carve up our communities and pit them against each other for funding.

Cuts to arts and culture are overwhelmingly also cuts to the disability community, just not via "approved channels."

As a disabled artist, I'll just keep barely paying rent on my fixed-term lease, I guess.

Get his ass

We desperately need Halifax parks to be investing in cargo bikes rather than driving pick up trucks on the pathways. I’m always shocked when I encounter one on the weekend.
I suspect there are more areas we could make this change (e.g., water delivery to encampments).

👀

We also moved them yesterday (around 10:15am).

It’s one of those days that feels like an absolute gift to be able to get around by bike!

I can’t believe you subjected yourself to that, but your piece was an enjoyable read!

Negative levels of it, if you’re giving *other people* self-help books.

Andy did what?! wtf

I 100% believe that

#BikeHfx problems: my bike developed a new squeak after I went over the Vaughan Ave curb cut yesterday.

Thanks for reading and sharing ❤️

Thank you, friend!

Tax Me Daddy update!

We sold 49 t-shirts! And thanks to @hfxshippingnews.bsky.social providing the shirts at cost and volunteering their labour AND a donor matching every dollar raised we were able to raise $1750 for African Nova Scotian Road to Economic Prosperity anseconomicprosperity.com

So stressful!
