With the world heating up [and more pedestrians being killed], why are more SUVs being sold?

“It’s the industry that has driven the demand through huge marketing & advertising campaigns in recent years. SUVs offered the industry a simple way of charging more for a vehicle that does the same thing.”
With the world heating up, why are more SUVs being sold?
Despite dire predictions of climate breakdown, more Sports Utility Vehicles are being spotted on, and off, the roads.

Here’s something that’s really important for everyone to understand.

If we design our cities just for cars, they fail everyone, including drivers.

If we design our cities with many great CHOICES in how to get around, they work better for everyone, including drivers.

Spread the word.

Folks have been telling me they’ve noticed I’ve gotten “a lot more political” on social media this year.

Of course I have.

The circumstances have gotten nightmarishly worse, and the consequences of inaction and staying silent infinitely more obvious.

Everyone needs to get “a lot more political.”

CANADA: May correctly calls out Poilievre for stealing from the Trump/Project 2025 playbook again.

Oh, and it’s ANOTHER good day to remind everyone that Poilievre STILL hasn’t done the normal security check, still hasn’t received the standard security clearance that EVERYONE in his position gets.

So you can do a bicycle kick goal, huh?

That’s nice.

Can you do one in a snowstorm?

The CPL Final is in the middle of a snowstorm in Canada, true North American soccer heritage...how could it get any better?

This is seriously one of those things that probably blows the minds of most people outside of the United States.

A “swearing in” should obviously be completely ceremonial, and should have no legal weight at all.

THE ELECTION GIVES THE WINNER THE ROLE, not the Speaker.

It really makes no sense.
Swearing in isn’t some ceremony. You aren’t a member of Congress until it happens. He knows that.

No phones, no staff, nothing.

I had to escort her into the Capitol on Wed bc Capitol police must treat her as a public visitor until she’s sworn in. And solo visitors aren’t allowed during shutdown!
Johnson: "Grijalva should be working for her constituents right now. I don't know what she's doing. I keep seeing their political stunt videos. She should be in her office. She should be working or in the district for her constituents" (Grijalva is not in fact a Rep. b/c Johnson refuses to seat her)

To get buy-in from all 10 provinces (which it didn't), Canada's constitution has a clause allowing provinces to override its fundamental rights and freedoms. The framers -- I've spoken to some -- imagined it used in existential-crisis cases. Well, a province just used it to break a teachers' strike

“DoorDash intends to send autonomous robots into bike-lanes.” Via @momentummag.bsky.social

Here’s what’s frustrating…who cares what they “intend?” It’s up to City Hall what’s allowed in bike-lanes, NOT COMPANIES!

Stop acting like tech companies should be able to do whatever they want in cities.

On LBC today, I discussed the government's announcement of a second runway at Gatwick Airport and its rumoured decision to allow new oil and gas extraction. Is this Trump’s doing, Shelagh Fogarty asked me? No, it's worse than that.

Be sure you take a moment today to remember Charlie Kirk for exactly who he was.
Charlie Kirk Sept 27 2024: "Just so we're clear, the Haitians that are in Huntsville that are raping your women and hunting you down at night - it's only gonna get worse - unless Donald Trump wins
There will be hundreds of thousands of Haitians brought into Alabama and they will become your masters"
