Crazy stat to contemplate:
In 2024 China added almost exactly 1
GW of solar and wind capacity per day (358 GW across the year) – a pace equivalent to
building a typical nuclear reactor every single day.

Property taxes are confusing, because the UCP prefers it.
Last year, Edmonton increased municipal taxes by 5.7%. But then the UCP hiked the Education Tax by 9% and forced cities to collect it for them.
The UCP loves systems where others shoulder the blame for their actions.

Ice ruts make for vexatious winter cycling. If your front wheel slips down one side of the rut and rear wheel slides down the other side, it's near impossible to stay up. With our recent slush fest followed by flash freeze, they're waiting to strike in even the best maintained bike lanes. #yegbike

What are your #yegsnowstories #yegbike? Most paths are now snow over choppy ice, and the bike lanes are getting bad. Most roads still seem ok, but please share your pics or stories!

We hope you enjoy the beautiful, seasonally appropriate weather today. Stay safe out there, no matter how you move around the city!
