Every 3 months I will post my ERV filter replacement to show you all how dirty and bad our outdoor air quality is. This is Jan - April 2024 in Chicago. Do you really want your lungs to filter this?
Running trains earlier for race weekend is great. Running trains starting at 5:30/7 days a week is even better.

Idea: Monthly neighbourhood "Work Lunch" for WFH folks at a neighbourhood establishment to build community bring a bit of socialization back to WFH
Battery plants are cool, but how about funding for things cities always push to the end of the list like 10yr sidewalk backlogs, fully-connected bike lane networks to unlock micro-mobility for local enjoyment and commerce, park upgrades, outdoor community pools, etc
@ABetterOttawa I feel like we are generally missing the bigger opportunity that is QED. I’m good with bike lanes, but am afraid they will perpetuate cars on a beautiful waterfront for years to come. We really should have a grander vision and make it a park or tram corridor…

Just in from the Netherlands: The new 'municipal instruments for heating transition' law has today been adopted allowing municipalities to disconnect neighbourhoods from the gas grid to drive heat network expansion and manage gas network stranding issues. tweedekamer.nl/kamerstukken/w…
This past fall, Montreal pedestrianized a section of street in front of this elementary school to reduce traffic and give the 400 or so students (who mostly walk to school) more space.
So then you get to ... wait isn't the primary product feature "works on 120 volts and installs more easily?" That's a feature -- but a side benefit. If you can deploy storage in all the homes wired for electric appliances ... with an identical install ... you remake the grid.
"An arms race on our streets." Oversized SUVs and pickups are bad for all of us: pedestrians, cyclists, motorcyclists, and drivers. It's not fair that safety testing in Canada is only for those on the inside of the vehicle. Sign the federal petition below 👇 #DeadlyByDesign
Over the weekend I witnessed a kid practicing riding his bike with his dad along Carling. Prior to the separated bike lanes, this would have been unthinkable. Today? It’s pretty safe! If there is safe active transportation space available for all ages, people will use it.
I wonder if Carlington has any intersections big enough to support a support a pilot of one of these? As long as buses and garbage trucks can clear them. Some old cracked sewer segments have to be less than $15k for one speed bump @RiverWardRiley @MrBBeard

40 years ago, I ported Jet Set Willy to the C64. Today, I pondered on what it was that made 1984 to 1986 the most magical years of my time in video games. Here are ten reasons. (Tomorrow I’ll talk about how I bring the spirit of that time back, 40 years on.) 🧵
Today, 48 planes are scheduled to fly between Montreal and New York City. With proper high-speed rail and pre-clearance protocols, this journey could take less than 3 hours by train. Currently, it takes 11 hours by train. We deserve better.

@JohicMes Exactly. The outer green belt would quickly realize the status quo is unsustainable and they need to pivot their development strategies. As long as the inner green belt keeps funding their sprawl things will never change.
This would solve a lot of Ottawa's problems. De-amalgamate into three cities, with some shared regional services. Ottawa could fully commit to a dense walkable city with massive investments in cycling and transit. East & West Ottawa could continue with the status quo.

The federal budget hasn’t passed yet & we have a rare opportunity to get a major climate win. Help build pressure on MPs to get a tax on Big Oil's excess profits into Budget 2024:
For myself, I’m mostly wondering at the lack of a windfall tax on #fossilfuel companies in a year of massive profits + huge public expenditures to combat #climatechange-amplified #wildfires. That said, I appreciate this expression of solidarity with hard-working family docs ☺️🙏
Suggested tweak, give an exclusion to family physicians for the capital gains tax. Maybe also include other folks that provide a majority of their clinical practice in primary care like nurse practitioners, among others. Incentivize the care Canadians need.
Sigh. Imagine the degree to which we could have kickstarted a Canadian clean energy revolution with CAD $34 billion.
