Something oft heard from both sides of the political aisle is that religious congregations should be doing far more to help solve the housing crisis (never mind this is already happening all over the place)
Every example in this #WatReg story cites resident opposition. We can't have it both ways.
"Enbridge Gas will face Waterloo Region in a hearing before the Ontario Energy Board to renew an agreement that would allow the company to continue building pipelines on public land without charge for another 20 years." This agreement seems so outdated. Glad to see #WatReg challenging it.

Green sweater, already mended at the collar, with small hole on shoulder seam
Green sweater, mending in progress with yellow yarn. Patching the hole with a duplicate stitch technique that would be totally invisible if I wanted it to be (if I used the same colour of yarn) but I don't:):)
Green sweater, patched!! Previous visible mending on collar, cuff, and elbow also pictured, in varying shades of green and yellow as well.

Waterloo Region Record Wed, 21 Jan 2026
Good journalism is a good friend of the public
I agree with this. Wish more #WatReg folks subscribed to The Record.

Ottawa, Montreal, and Toronto LRTs faced challenges in yesterday's storm. Meanwhile, here in #WatReg, we've got folks taking beautiful shots of our ION chugging along smoothly. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
Alright, we've got a water capacity issue in #WatReg and #WRcouncil heard from many delegates on January 13th about this issue. You can watch the meeting here and/or follow along on this (potentially very long!) thread. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZbM...
"I'm starting to become less proud to live in #WatReg because I'm seeing us turn towards putting our resources into militarization, rather than into development, into creating community," says Skinner. Raises concerns about police spending increases.
Text: There isn’t enough water supply right now in the affected areas to sustainably meet even the needs of the existing population Mathieu Goetzke, Waterloo Region’s acting chief administrative officer, explained Tuesday in a briefing for news media.
Not great. #WatReg www.therecord.com/opinion/colu...

My husband and I attended a "Bloody Berlin" historic walking tour last night through the Schneider Haus.
I learned that Louis Armstrong had played publicly for 3 hours while staying at The Walper Hotel!

Welcome Mask Bloc Waterloo Region to Bluesky! #WatReg
Around three years ago I reached out in the #WatReg Birds FB Group asking if anyone wanted to start a queer birding club. The response was great and now we have an awesome, thriving #queer #birding community in KW. Biweekly trips with no less than a dozen attendees. Community carpool. Great vibes.
For the record, mostly for my future self...of the above, #WatReg is the only tag that seems active at all ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Photo of a green suitcase with pleading caption to please let me know if you see such an item ditched somewhere. Downtown Kitchener/Central Frederick area. The latches PIVOT which is weird & why our night visitor couldn't open it to realize there was nothing of value inside before dragging it off.
Our display fully set up on Saturday at The Aud. These are the sorts of items that are inside - fabric, mostly, and some wood. Scott survived and didn't get kidnapped, fortunately, he's not nearly as replaceable :) even though all this stuff took hours and hours to make. It's replaceable 😮💨
Ruined my own day being sad about my stolen suitcase but hey what are the hashtags that give me a slice of a chance anyone nearby might see this and keep an eye out? #Kitchener #DTKitchener #WatReg #DTKLove ? My apologies to the petty thieves that we've failed you so, you deserve better <3
The Earthshakers Creativity Club is a series of social co-working sessions for folks to come together and be creative!! it's open to all skill levels and super welcoming and non-judgemental - think getting together with your friends for a craft night, that's the vibe!
