I find that many e-device riders fail to give any notice before passing. Maybe they are new to non-vehicle transportation. Education and training is definitely needed.
Regular cyclist says she sometimes feels nervous on the region’s multi-use trails because of the speeds of some e-bikes, electric unicycles and scooters https://t.co/xlfnL3bnkD
The Town of Sidney has just recently learned that due to a vessel shortage, Washington State Ferries does not expect to be able to resume ferry service between Sidney and Anacortes until 2030. Learn more here: https://t.co/FVUnWAV0XN
This looks very much like a proactive, creative response to a climate emergency that will have measurable results in the short term. Could this be repeated in other municipalities with large senior populations that can then defer taxes?
@JaniceNeden @AdamPOlsen @bcndp I am not suggesting that information should not be freely available but responding to requests costs time and money. $10 won’t cover that but it may deter some frivolous requests.
@AdamPOlsen @bcndp I agree with the nominal $10 FOI charge. It is a small deterrent to frivolous requests. I also think a nominal $5 fee to visit a doctor should be in place. Of course not for those who are unable to pay.
@timescolonist Absolutely correct!! In other places I have lived I always paid a $5 fee every time I wanted to see a family doctor and $20 at emergency. Of course if I had been on assistance I wouldn’t have paid. It really cut down on frivolous visits.
So, the writer does not see the Russian invasion of Ukraine as a threat to democracy, NATO, and Canada. Let’s wait until Wagner mercenaries cross our border and then build up our armed forces and call on the USA to defend us? Maybe let’s not!
@roblagnac @mafuemerano @Bundeskanzler@spdde Comparison with Iraq perhaps makes the point. The first war was a response to an invasion of 🇰🇼. UN condemnation. 🇨🇦 participated. Second war in response to perceived threat 🇨🇦 didn’t believe and stayed out. 🇷🇺 invasion of 🇺🇦 is clear illegal aggression.
I just watched a @CHEK_News report with parents complaining that we don’t have a mask mandate in schools. None of these people were wearing masks, unlike teachers and some students. Is personal responsibility dead?
