A resident reached out to me today asking for clarification on whether they now lived in Ward 5 or Ward 3. Great question! Here's the answer: bendurham.ca/2026/parts-o...

Did you know you’re a CO-OWNER of your city, not just a resident? Yeah, so from clean water to property values, municipal finance impacts EVERYTHING in your life. Most people ignore it… until the trash piles up or toilets stop flushing lol.
For over 40 years, Winnipeg’s iconic Portage & Main intersection has been CLOSED to pedestrians. In 2018, 65% voted to keep it shut. #winnipeg
I've TRIED talking and “being nice” but have been met with incomprehension. There's a FUNDAMENTAL MISUNDERSTANDING of what Utility Cyclists are VS what Recreational Cyclists are. Councillors, you NEED to know the difference when making rash decisions like these. youtu.be/LrLydtZoFo4

what. the. fuck. We might legitimately move out of London, Ontario at this rate. We were excited to have these bike lanes go into our area, along routes that we frequent. Peter Cuddy LITERALLY SAID HURON STREET IS TOO DANGEROUS TO BIKE ON – THAT'S WHAT BIKE LANES ARE FOR!
Thanks! It's being talked about live right now at council 🤞 www.youtube.com/live/y8v1BXt...
