It’s so unkind what these terrible men (Trump, Kennedy Oz and others) are doing to women who have children on the autism spectrum. Not to mention dangerous for pregnant women. It makes me sick to my stomach!
FUN FACT: Autism was first diagnosed at least 40 years before Tylenol was created.

Even better, these investments help insulate the economy against Trump's trade war. At the same time, enhancing supply of clean energy will also support value-adding exports like manufacturing & tech. This should be at the top of our nation-building economic agenda. #cdnecon

We estimated the job-creation spurred by 3 big categories of investment:
* Non-emitting energy production & transmission
* Energy-efficient buildings & district energy
* Sustainable transport
All told, this will produce an avg of 235-350,000 new construction jobs over 25 yrs. /3

Or if you know your downtown is at risk of getting these again. 🙄
If your downtown still has many wide and fast one-way streets, then your priority is to move cars as fast as possible thru a weak downtown. It’s NOT to create a vibrant downtown, help downtown retailers, keep people safe, support walkability and accessibility, reduce pollution, etc. #TrafficSewers
