This map says it all. Ottawa's finances are in shambles, we have a homeless crisis, public transit is falling apart - but majority of councillors outside core approve bailout for the richest businessmen (and campaign donors) in the city.
I can still remember the watching the game when he tore his knee apart on the warning track at the Big O. Great young player, brutal injury. Awesome he found success in coaching.

Procedure for discovering someone has parked across your driveway and blocked you in:
1. Put your hands on your hips and stare at the car
2. Look left and right (with incredulous menace) up the street, then look behind you at your own trapped vehicle
3. Shake your head, mutter “unbelievable” or “who the hell’s parked there?”
4. Hold your arms out with hands upturned, like you’re holding a large invisible fish (🤷♂️). Look gobsmacked
5. Go closer to the enemy car (one hand on hip now, the other hand scratching the back of your head) to view it from different angles as if readying yourself to pick it up
6. Consider two drastic approaches: (1) knocking on neighbouring doors, (2) leaving a stern note on the windscreen
7. Go back inside and hope the enemy car goes soon. Furiously monitor the situation from the video doorbell/window
8. Remember to breathe
Our Homegrown Club Series includes FREE performances spotlighting the local music scene with jazz & beyond! The week prior to the Festival (June 16-22) some of Ottawa’s talented local musicians will perform at some of the best venues that present jazz on a regular basis.
