I find it incredibly sad that conservatives on the east coast have needlessly politicized cycling and cycling infrastructure.

In Victoria, we take an evidenced-based approach. Our 45 km of protected bike lanes have

✅ Doubled the % of cyclists
✅ Reduced congestion
✅ Reduced serious accidents by 37%
The Province’s explanation for wanting to give dictatorial powers to the Mayor is that Fillmore is more “in touch” with the people of HRM than the councillors they directly elected to represent their districts?

Neither Houston nor Fillmore suggested creating strong mayor powers during each of their election campaigns.

DJT lists all kinds of countries who charge US “hundreds and hundreds of percent” on beef, milk, rice, etc

US will charge everyone the “same thing”

Just completely disregarding free trade agreements, market protection measures etc. It’s just senseless and simply, less than smart

Polio is beginning to spread, Canada needs to run some ads to help ensure all children get vaccinated from this terrible debilitating disease, it not only destroys childhoods. It returns to create more misery for the suffers as they age. Ignorance should not condemn a child to this horrific disease.
