EXCLUSIVE POLL: Sutcliffe holds commanding lead in Ottawa’s mayoral race

Another watermain break and sink hole. You can explore the age of our city's pipes using this interactive map. bickertonpa.github.io/Ottawa-Water... The pipes in question appear to be from 1967, making them 59 years old. 1/

1967 You can use this map from @pbickerton.bsky.social to find the age of pipes a bit more easily than the city's tool. bickertonpa.github.io/Ottawa-Water...

Another day, another watermain break (Riverside/Vanier Parkway at Tremblay) in Ottawa. Leiper has an actual plan for addressing this shortfall from years of Watson and Sutcliffe underfunding rather than handwaving and hoping the province and feds save our ass.

Drivers be whacked. You’d think encased in such amounts of metal and air bags, A/C, a full couch and surround sound TV, they wouldn’t feel so insecure, but maybe all that just leads to a feeling of entitlement to anyone not them.

TW Last week our client was cycling in Hamilton. He passed James Newlands in his grey pickup truck. Words were exchanged, Newlands sped unsafely past our client then brake checked. Shocking video confirmed Mr. Newlands intentions & shed light on this terrible incident of road rage 1/3

Distraction is the second leading cause of fatal crashes in our region and province. We hope that all candidates take that seriously, especially those from a party campaigning on public safety. (Video from ABC School Board Candidate Lina Vargas on Instagram)

This is such good framing! I would love to see what it looks like to build a greenfield neighbourhood that breaks even for the city.

I got a response to my Freedom of Information request regarding the LRT upload: There were no communications between the OCTranspo head, the mayor, the city manager or Metrolinx re the upload from March 1st to 26 September 2026. There is no $4 billion deal with the province.

Bicyclist didn’t want to die!!! How hard is it to fucking understand

David Ho@davidho.bsky.social · last wk.

"Police said the bicyclist was not wearing a helmet." Who cares? A bicycle helmet isn't designed to protect cyclists against cars. "At this time, speed, drugs or alcohol do not appear to be contributing factors in the collision, police said." Speed is absolutely a factor, to the 2nd power.

Don’t even think about it. There’s so many things I’ve wanted to go to, relatives or connections, events, music festivals, canyons, parks. Don’t get me wrong, these are very important to me or nice to see. But being put in a detention camp or supporting the regime that put people in them? NOPE!!!!!!

In ERs, we see the impact of unsafe roads regularly. Cities with good bike infrastructure have fewer deaths and greater safety for all, regardless of whether they’re walking, cycling or driving. Ontario gov should reconsider how to spend $48 mil Improve lives - not put them at risk #bikeTO #onpoli

Why hundreds of doctors are fighting Ford’s removal of Toronto bike lanes

Amazing how a little rain makes the speeding and narrow sidewalk issues visible and...tangible as in I am now soaking wet after walking my kid to school in what is otherwise just light rain. This is what makes routes to school feel unsafe and walking feel untenable.

If, as speculated, this was caused by the driver hitting the accelerator due to human error or medical event, let's be 100% clear: That does not make it "just one of those things." That does not make it "unforeseeable." That does not make it "unpreventable." This is not an acceptable failure mode.
