@OurNewHomecoach I am doing the same from Canada

@NotSafe4BikesTO The cops don't even know what an e-bike is; that thing is totally illegal on public roads in Canada.

@CanadaRobin @simonkav @g_meslin @fordnation @PrabSarkaria Yup.

@edzitron @AravSrinivas @nytimes digital scab just lost a pro subscriber.

Forget the JD Vance jokes, furniture matters. The @BlueJays ripped out all the regular seats and replaced them with barcaloungers behind first base and all of us plebs seethe and resent that they are empty and the home base lady is gone. I even get mad at my @TD_Canada.

@bellachu10 Many in Canada think this is exactly what is going to happen. “the wars of the future will be fought over water.” https://t.co/rcBYeXKz0c.

@Revkin I visited Heidelberg in May. Every window has exterior shading to keep the heat out. As @holz_bau notes, we should be doing this in North America too. https://t.co/7lz43GoQWX

@glynbowerman Surprisingly strong cellphone signals in the park, you may be fine if you are close to highway 60

Treehugger, the site I worked for since shortly after it started, went live 20 years ago this month. It was never taken seriously but we were serious about "driving sustainability mainstream." Thank you, @ghill I wrote this ten years ago today: https://t.co/LMiBmmYkUP

@copenhenken Thank you. American exceptionalism (we need to go faster! Farther! We’re heavier! It’s hillier! pedalling is hard!) means e-bikes here don’t play nice in the bike lanes and are scaring regular cyclists off the road. I e-bike (gazelle) and I am scared by these big Class 3 things.

Hey @CBC if you keep running @AirCanada ads over the opening ceremonies I will never fly with them again

Americans Too Old To Be Driving Risk It Anyway Because Living Without A Car Is Miserable And Dangerous https://t.co/Rn24KocDcC #lyft #oldage

@JohnLorinc @gordperks The law in Copenhagen: do ANY kind or construction, you provide an alternate bike lane.

[@[email protected] @lloydalter]

@JohnLorinc I got caught in this yesterday trying to cross the street at the light. Not much consideration for pedestrians either.

I've admired @FACIT_HOMES technology since 2007 when I wrote, "this is truly the future." I am excited to see it breaking out to a larger market; the time is right for this new form of digitally manufactured housing. https://t.co/ulHicbi2cm

@holz_bau @knelsond_78 But hey it is in Alberta, where climate change doesn’t happen and we heart oil and gas.

[@[email protected] @lloydalter]

In Toronto, another cyclist has been murdered by the construction industry that puts money ahead of lives and the government that won't legislate side guards or decent visibility for trucks. I wrote about this last year: https://t.co/Qpg2WG10kD

I liked the idea of an urban planner being on council, but Bradford, who voted for this stupid highway and worked at city hall, does nothing but campaign for Mayor. He is an embarrassment.

[Matt Elliott @GraphicMatt]

Councillor Bradford is questioning Mayor Chow on the Gardiner. “Why wasn’t this the original approach we brought forward?”

Chow says the procurement for this work was done in 2022, prior to her time in office. Also before the New Deal, the city was very cost-constrained.

@emm_a It's true

@markasaurus @Lanefab and I agree it is a great kitchen nobody should have to look at dirty dishes all the time, condo kitchens are awful.
