Imagine if #OttCity invested in e-bike rebate (say, $1000 per bike, x 1000/year); that’s a rounding error in the city budget but would lift 1000 ppl per year with better transit options; make income based; create secondary stream for youth; add cargo bikes; expand w/better bike infra and bike share
since denver launched its e-bike rebate program - the have sold 10,000 e-bikes and reduced an estimated 1,000,000 car trips - replacing millions of VMTs and reducing air pollution
there are no climate silver bullets... but damn - e-bikes and e-cargo bikes are close

Love it! And maple thrives in Eastern Ontario, so it's obviously ready for the inaugural champions
The Northern Super League has unveiled its league championship trophy.
Presenting the Diana B. Matheson Cup.
👇This part is sick:
It’s gold, and the wood foundation begins with maple and will be replaced each year with wood sourced from the home region of the winning club.

But, you should though.
You're right, Wellington is a very important route, and cars hinder literally every other form of transportation from using it. We can be better than this.

It's an important route through downtown Ottawa and the city has no plans to remove cars from the road.

In a speech before the United Nations General Assembly today, President Trump said climate change is a “con job” and climate scientists are “stupid people” — and he called green energy and immigration a “double-tailed monster” that is destroying Europe.

At some point, leaders need to lead by looking forward. The world isn't the same as it used to be. Instead of trying to put the genie back in the bottle, we can leverage opportunities that come with a decentralized city: stronger local economies, improved quality of life, cleaner air, safer streets.
I want to express my profound disappointment today that the City has ordered its workers back into the office five days a week. It is a short-sighted decision that serves no one well in either the short or long term. (1/6)

I got home to a post by Capital Prode saying the Pride Parade was cancelled. It wasn't, the community was speaking with a different voice than the organizers.
@mayormarksutcliffe.bsky.social didn't like the Palestinian solidarity messaging so he pulled an authoritarian move. Suck it Sutcliffe.
