@erinotoole This, Erin, is what Canadians do, we don’t cavort with the people trying to destroy our nation then mince words and put heart strings to justify our lack of discretion.

Mike Myers demonstrates loyalty to his nation, unlike your base of supporters.

@erinotoole “Guys leave Gretzky alone, all he did was support the guy threatening our sovereignty, don’t you remember all the goals he scored”

[Chris Turner @theturner]

Breathtaking. Maybe the biggest innovation for transport inefficiency in my lifetime

[Rachel Gilmore @atRachelGilmore]

Toronto Sun mindlessly repackaging Indian disinformation to own the libs, hell yeah brother

Can’t wait to have to fact check this for the next 87 years!!!!!!!!

My daughter received a D in PE for running a mile in 10.40, and not the national standard of 8.32. She wasn’t even a runner, her first time was 14 minutes, dropping by 4 minutes is huge. They should score on progress not some standard. This is how a child’s spirit is destroyed.

Canada sinking billions into new pipelines aimed at serving a market that won't exist by the time they're finished is a fool's errand. It's why the PM said, quite rightly, that there isn't a business case there.

I know it's hard, folks. But can you move on from this pipe dream?

who could’ve foreseen that this large overbuilt highway would have this effect

Micromanagement is either a sign of insecurity or a sign of mistrust. If you have a competent team, trust them to do the work. That will help them build their own confidence along with their trust in you. #TrustMeTrustYou

The alternate to removing the gas tax is to use those funds instead to spur low-carbon infrastructure investments to implement lasting change to transportation options that are affordable and equitable.

[Bike Is Best @BikeIsBestHQ]

Nearly 60% of car journeys are under 5 miles. There's a better tool for the job. For short journeys #BikeIsBest

@BigRedyyc Why would you amend (I mean remove) the only really meaningful element of this plan?

[Safer Calgary @SaferCalgary]

What we think is safe often isn’t

[Safer Calgary @SaferCalgary]

@gccarra Sadly I am running workshops all day today and cannot wait for hours to try and do so. Many others are in a similar boat.

[Safer Calgary @SaferCalgary]

@gccarra The recommendation is feeble. If point three is stripped out as it was at committee it will be worthless. Waste of time and money for lip service to a serious problem

[Bike Calgary @bikecalgary]

These mobility lanes were provided to allow all Calgarians to socially distance during the pandemic, introduced in March (the month of most snowfall) & April's 22.8cms, all managed. As the second pandemic wave arrives, our needs have changed? #yyc #yycbike #yyccc @cityofcalgary

[Safer Calgary @SaferCalgary]

Mandatory helmets for cyclists produces no net safety benefit at population level. Problem not big Infrastructure is best solution #yycbike

[Greg Hart 🇺🇦 @gregsthinking]

Looking forward to talking about conflicts between people walking and cars on @AlbertaatNoon today at 1230 @SaferCalgary #yycwalk

[Safer Calgary @SaferCalgary]
