Hi Bluesky 👋

Small life update: I’m at the centre of a multimillion dollar lawsuit in Alberta launched by a failed candidate for Jason Kenney’s UCP

It may be the longest and most expensive media trial in Canadian history

I’m ready to go public about it and I want to share more details with you 🧵

This is the balance we voted for.

We can and could, starting tomorrow, make a difference. But it would take leadership to enact changes and introduce design changes to our public realm.
1. Enforce speed/traffic violations inc automated enforcement
2. End right on red
3. Design rds/streets better
At a minimum 9? (Not counting all the close calls)

June 27 - cyclist, Byward Market

July 8 - cyclist, Kanata

July 8 - pedestrian, Elgin

July 23 - cyclist, Stittsville

July 23 - 2 children riding bikes, Stittsville & Barrhaven

July 26 - cyclist, Manotick

Juku 26 - 2 e-scooter riders, Lowertown

Canadians are not shareholders. They are citizens.
Canada is a nation not a corporation.
Carney is not CEO.
He was elected as Prime Minister of the Canadian people.
The rights of citizenship and the obligations of political leadership should never be degraded to mere capitalist exchange.

Once again I voice my hope that Ottawans and members of the Ottawa diplomatic community who receive an invitation to the US ambassador’s July 4th garden party will politely decline to attend.

Coincidentally I watched The Sorrow and the Pity last week. Made in 1969 about events 25 years earlier it totally still holds up in 2025. www.theguardian.com/film/2025/ma...
Marcel Ophuls, Oscar-winning film-maker of The Sorrow and the Pity, dies aged 97

TCAF is at a new venue this year and they've apparently had quite a few cancellations from US-based creators understandably reluctant to travel, so if you like what they do and can spare a few bucks to help them stay a free-to-attend, creator-first, inclusive festival, the info to donate is below!
A message from @librarylandia.bsky.social 📣

Thanks to 408 donors, we're at 80% of our funding goal! If you haven’t yet donated, and if independent art and the comics community are important to you, give to TCAF today.

Donors over $5 will be celebrated on our site www.torontocomics.com/support-tcaf

“I’m an avid cyclist but...”
Exactly the problem. We don’t need infrastructure just for avid cyclists, we need it for those new and/or apprehensive riders who are terrified of riding through their cities.

TCAF is proud to champion comics as a vital art form.

In this political climate, protecting the arts as a source of revolutionary self-expression has never been more important.​

But like many nonprofit arts orgs, TCAF is experiencing financial challenges.

Radical thought: 15y old infrastructure should look and function better than this. For one, drainage should not pool at pedestrian crossings. Design better, live better. That starts with procurement in the public interest.

There is a reason that Elon Musk is stumping for Pierre Poilievre.
A reason he chose to be interviewed with Mar-a-Lago loser Jordan Peterson.
