Wow, the Maritimes have 2-3x fewer people who live within 30 minute walk of grocery stores. Terrible statistics from StatCAN's new spatial access metrics.

Spent my first few days back home going through old books and pictures. Found a baby pic of mine from a daycare report. Some serious shit-disturber energy in that picture 😂

My kid is a massive fan of buses. Buses are cool. Support transit.

The Charleston neighborhood in Las Vegas is hoping to transform from car-dependent to walkable. Which is kind of hard when your roads look like this, and the community has 7/10 of the most fatal intersections.

Our team is proposing some big ideas and had a great time sharing them with residents.
