Interestingly, I see the turn radius in some major intersections has been tightened, sometimes even with more than paint, like here at Finch/Markham. Or maybe it's not new, I'd just never been there before 🤷 anyway, it's good.

Canada uses a more nuanced measure of literacy, the Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC), which includes numeracy and problem-solving.
The Cnd average was 270.8/500 points, better than the OECD avg.

Was it designed to pull double decker carriages? Otoh, diesel-electric needs space. Canadian Via Rail isnt bothered by the transition (or indeed streamlining), though the height diff is less dramatic.

Idk.. they don't exactly recruit the brightest minds and it's probably AI generated. They've made other, even more egregious mistakes - remember the Liberian flag?

Why so massive? I get it - to prevent people literally jumping them - but what's the revenue lost from that and is it really your №1 social problem?

That's something I thought of as totally normal growing up, but also hard to understand, remnants of a world we had left behind. Air-raid shelters are still everywhere. Fun to explore when you're a kid. Found a picture of a sign from my old hometown. I wish we *had* left this world behind.

Well then. On the next page, von Braun delivered this gem, like the good reformed Nazi he was. Maybe he was never that invested I racial animus, he just didn't care who and how many got killed as long as he could develop his rockets.
