In rejecting safety upgrades for Mountain Highway, Clr Forbes said the district "doesn’t need to go for the gold standard of road safety right away, and lose a lane of traffic on an already congested street." www.nsnews.com/in-the-commu...

After almost waiting a year, I finally received a copy of my FOI request to the provincial government of British Columbia about plans for passenger railway service along the Sea to Sky Corridor plus details about intercity bus service. It's 2,000+ pages so this is going to be an ongoing thread.

I’m at a Seattle city club event, and local FOX anchor Hana Kim just demanded that Mayor Katie Wilson respond to Spencer Pratt’s claim that people are flooding into Seattle to be homeless because they love the lenient access to drugs here. People are clapping for Spencer Pratt.

It's come to my attention that some people still don't know the history of the Fraser Institute, and why they shouldn't be trusted. Here's 5 reasons why you shouldn't trust the Fraser Institute.

Their conference in Red Deer every year brings in a host of right-wing figures from the US and Canada, including people like climate change denier Barry Cooper. The conference is backed by Koch Industries and are partners of Suncore, Cenovus, and Imperial Oil. www.desmog.com/canada-stron...

I know someone who was hit by a driver running a stop sign and had considerable injuries and the ICBC ghouls tried to bill him for damage to the car. No fault is basically a victim punishment scam and it should be abolished.

Kent Clark@comicbooksuperhero.ca · 4mo ago

This is absolutely unbelievable and unacceptable. No fault must cover damages, and the idea that ICBC will just up and deny them immediately shows how it serves only to protect ICBC and not provide for Canadians who have been struck. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibv4...

New: Health Minister Josie Osborne nixes overdose prevention site planned for 900 Helmcken St. in downtown Vancouver, citing concerns raised. Says province and Vancouver Coastal Health will "fully engage with stakeholders and community ahead of any new site opening."

“Vancouver continues to experience the highest rates of unregulated drug deaths in B.C. During this public health emergency, it is critical that people at risk of overdose have access to timely supports and services that save lives and help prevent serious harms, including brain injury. “Vancouver Coastal Health is working to establish overdose-prevention services in Vancouver’s downtown core and recognizes the importance of ensuring these services support both vulnerable people in need of care and the businesses, residents and workers in surrounding neighbourhoods. “Since intentions were announced to open a new overdose-prevention site on 900 Helmcken St., I, along with my colleague, Terry Yung, Minister of State for Community Safety and Integrated Services, and MLA for Vancouver-Yaletown, have heard concerns from the city, local businesses and community partners. We, along with the Ministry of Health and Vancouver Coastal Health, are committed to taking steps to fully engage with stakeholders and community ahead of any new site opening. Vancouver Coastal Health will not proceed with the overdose-prevention site at 900 Helmcken St. at this time, and there is currently no planned date for opening. “The Province is committed to working collaboratively with the City of Vancouver, local businesses and community partners to ensure people can access life-saving services, while addressing concerns raised by the community and supporting safe, healthy neighbourhoods for everyone. The mobile overdose-prevention site will continue to operate to provide a limited number of services in the area.”

To my mind, the most interesting thing about OneCity's council primary is you have two of the most "build more housing" advocates in the city in Peter Waldkirch and Russil Wvong running for the "build more housing" party And a lot of the establishment is supporting a group that sidelines them

Did you realize that the right-wing push in Canada was engineered by US-linked oil companies? This month DeSmog highlights Gwyn Morgan, former CEO of Denver-based Ovintiv, and his funding of groups like Canada Strong and Free and True North. www.desmog.com/2026/03/27/h...

Local electeds are sounding the alarm: rising disinformation and polarization are reshaping local democracy. We spoke with Mayor Blackwell about this growing crisis, whose concerns echo what we’ve been hearing. youtu.be/hOoGqgUWy3c #disinformation #cdnpoli #localgovernance #polarization #municipal

I can’t think of another provincial government pushing a study through academic peer review that was so visibly infested with undisclosed conflicts of interest and easily discernible methodological flaws — breaking journal rules. This should be hugely alarming for the academic world.

Euan Thomson@drugdatadecoded.ca · 7mo ago

I urge academics across the continent to push back on this serious breach of practice. Your work relies on the integrity of ethics, disclosures and peer review. All three appear to have failed here — with immediate and deadly public policy consequences. 7/ drugdatadecoded.ca/centre-of-re...

the "study" he says is by the University of Alberta is actually by THE GOVERNMENT OF ALBERTA and it is EXTREMELY PROBLEMATIC and the authors are very good friends and donors to the UCP please read this thread www.cp24.com/video/2026/0...

question for the 🇨🇦 telecom law nerds out there: does a computer server, or any computer, that does "transmission or reception of intelligence by any wire, cable, radio, optical or other electromagnetic system, or by any similar technical system transmits" count as a "telecommunications facility?"
