It’s time your government got back in the business of building affordable homes.

[David Barrett @davidbarrettyyc]

This is explicitly about stopping development. The NoM specifically identifies this.

Our water availability and infrastructure definitely, contrary to your insinuation, is not due to capacity issues or related building/development. There is no good reason for this NoM.

The 12 Ave SE cycle track should reopen this afternoon. Thanks @bikecalgary for your feedback and advocacy while the detour was in place, and thanks @yyctransport for your work in restoring this section of the network!

@LizCGil Ooh! Derivatives taxation! Wheee!

[LRTontheGreen @LRTontheGreen]

Centre St is the busiest bus corridor in #yyc. Hopes for #greenlineyyc to deliver relief any time soon have gone up in smoke. It's why we're asking #yyccc & @cityofcalgary to focus on moving Calgarians, not cars & eliminate the lane reversals to create bus only lanes at rush hour

[LRTontheGreen @LRTontheGreen]

Sounds like @DevinDVote's working hard to dust off plans from the 80s to build a SE LRT to Seton. No mention of north central #yyc or preserving the contract for the low-floor trains the entire design is based off of. Don't be fooled, the @Alberta_UCP isn't building #greenlineyyc

[Kyle Brittain @BadWeatherKyle]

Good morning!

Your daily reminder that the sky is awesome. #yyc

Today is the National Day of Action for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG) In Canada, Indigenous women, girls, and 2SLGBTQQIA people are murdered, abused, or disappear at shockingly high rates.

[Ricardo Acuna @RicAcuna]

Increasing royalties, saving oil and gas revenues, and using taxes to fund public services makes sense. The only thing missing is a government with the courage and political will to make it happen. - Check out my OpEd in today's Edmonton Journal https://t.co/XcRK9yPdme #ableg

On this National Day for Truth and Reconciliation- taking time to reflect on what “truth before reconciliation” means with the help of this book by the talented writer of the heart-twisting novel Five Little Indians, Michelle Good.

[Kara Levis @mskaralevis]

@McnallysaraMc Really good - heart wrenching though. The character is so well written.

[Kara Levis @mskaralevis]

@RileeDHarrison This is the way.

[DJ Kelly @djkelly]

@ZiadFazel That's a great, detailed option. Frankly, at this point, I'd be satisfied if any politician understood that an estimate classification system exists and that it's about ranges rather than specific dollars because that's how you manage risk.

[Kara Levis @mskaralevis]

@subnomnomnom Wow those shoes! 🤩

[David Barrett @davidbarrettyyc]

It is critical that we prioritize the building of affordable housing, as has been done in this situation.

If this is not an appropriate place, then where is? Here's hoping that the response from Trellis, identifying a desire to relocate the playground, helps address concerns.

[David Barrett @davidbarrettyyc]

@amandalhu I love this wording. Without compassion, what are we?

[Amanda Hu @amandalhu]

A friend of mine phrased it so brilliantly to their city councillor one: “These folks are already my neighbours, so they might as well have homes to live in”

What’s been lost in this Political Transit conversation is the actual users of transit. I share our family’s experience along the overcrowded Centre Street Transit Corridor. #GreenLineYYC is long overdue in the North and keeps falling through the cracks.
