The answer to your question of "why does that one side street have so much retail?" is always "it used to have a streetcar"
I might actually think about going to a soccer game.

Key line: "At $33 per Canadian, CBC/Radio-Canada is one of the worst-funded public broadcasters in the world, with 4x less funding than the U.K. and France and 8x times less than Germany." cbc.ca/news/canada/fe…
I finally figured it out- my favourite Disney movie is Atlantis: The Lost Empire.
AR-15 is absolutely right. I am so sick of the free loading. I propose the “Fair Share Transportation Act.” ALL modes should be priced at their full, true costs including road wear, required land, air and noise pollution, injuries and deaths.

Many have pointed to these orgs, which are great. But like all volunteer orgs like this, membership has declined as folks have to work more to make ends meet.

ABC was warned at the time that removing the temporary bike lane before the mobility study was finished would be a waste of time and money. It turns out that yes, it was. Their new, separated lane is so impractical that staff aren't even considering it.
Breaking news: Park Board has just voted to include the recently removed Stanley Park bike lane for consideration as part of the upcoming mobility study. It turns out it's the quickest and cheapest option, all others taking a minimum of 5 years to implement. #vanpoli
Summer 2024 kicks off in just under two months. How's that engineered bike lane replacement coming along?

Honestly, the housing is more out of place than the data centre.

I know the Hyperloop is a scam and not feasible but imagine how cool it would be to have a giant worldwide metro network that allows people to go from one continent to another in a couple hours!
It's not misinformation. I'll say this again, if I die on my bike, or as a pedestrian, from a driver hitting me, politicize the fuck out of it. In such a case, my fondest wish would be for my death to be the reason safety is improved for other people.

It will never not be funny that @CityofVancouver approved an entire takeover of 8 front facing walkable stores(which basically means one of its first real 15 minute hubs is gone) and offices for a daycare where the pub patio looks out over what will be a playground.
Heh, I didn't realize that Callum Keith Rennie finally got to wear the red serge. This is a very Canadian, Due South and Discovery niche joke.
Facts: -Speaking truth to power ≠ picking fights -Montague lives in N Van -Montague killed a motion to add intersection safety cameras (ISCs) -Montague killed a motion to add a protected east-west bike lane. -ISCs & protected lanes are proven to reduce road deaths & injuries.

We want to be absolutely clear. Our group has only one agenda: to prevent people from being injured and killed on our streets. We will never shy away from criticizing any person or policy that stands in the way.

The city itself has set a goal of zero road deaths. Fact. vancouver.ca/streets-transp… The councillor amended a motion to make it harder to do that. Fact. He justified this choice because he was a collision investigator for five years. Gut checks > peer reviewed studies apparently.

AR-15 is absolutely right. I am so sick of the free loading. I propose the “Fair Share Transportation Act.” ALL modes should be priced at their full, true costs including road wear, required land, air and noise pollution, injuries and deaths.
@Boenau Cyclists should be forced to pay the true cost of theie infrastructure. Tolls, licensing, registration, whatever. Infrastructure isn't free and cycling infrastructure has no legitimate business use.
How are we possibly still on “Mark Carney is this country’s greatest hope against Pierre.” I think the Liberals maybe greatest failure of all (okay besides election reform lies) was the lack of any succession planning.
Motion just passed 4-1 by the Park Board re #StanleyPark Drive bike lane:
Staff estimate that ABC's dedicated bike lane will take a minimum of 5 years to complete, just barely missing their promise of Summer of last year. #vanpoli
Summer 2024 kicks off in just under two months. How's that engineered bike lane replacement coming along?
Thank you @ParkBoard commissioners for voting for the practical choice in making Stanley Park fully accessible again and asking for a plan for an engineered bike lane replacement to be installed by summer 2024.
@markeburge @CityofVancouver I know!? Small business that served our community - gone. What a joke
@BrianVMontague @VisionZeroYVR Police (past and present) 🤝 Getting mad at citizen oversight/criticism - name a more iconic duo. You should resign and let people who actually want to make Vancouver better take your seat.
@BrianVMontague @VisionZeroYVR It’s also sad that you’ve basically just informed us all that advocating for pedestrian safety will result in no positive outcomes as long as you’re a Vancounver City Councillor.
@BrianVMontague @VisionZeroYVR Oh look. Councillor bridge and tunnel says there are facts and then doesn’t provide them. Speaking of zero credibility…
@BrianVMontague You can't be a councillor and post "very sad to see loss of life here" and then do absolutely nothing to prevent more road deaths. You're part of the problem.
@BrianVMontague @VisionZeroYVR Brian, what about that post is misinformation? Were there not plans to have cameras there? Did you not delay the implementation?
@BrianVMontague @VisionZeroYVR This is accountability, not misinformation. What did you expect when you ran for city council? Not to be called out when people die as a result of your policy preferences?!
Facts: -Speaking truth to power ≠ picking fights -Montague lives in N Van -Montague killed a motion to add intersection safety cameras (ISCs) -Montague killed a motion to add a protected east-west bike lane. -ISCs & protected lanes are proven to reduce road deaths & injuries.
@VisionZeroYVR Very sad to see loss of life here. Also sad to see once again this group chooses to pick a fight and spread misinformation. This helps do nothing. You are making assumptions that r once again completely incorrect because you don’t have the facts. Zero Credibility.
We want to be absolutely clear. Our group has only one agenda: to prevent people from being injured and killed on our streets. We will never shy away from criticizing any person or policy that stands in the way.

I feel like an important skill for an elected politician is to be able to take policy criticisms about your voting record without lashing out at volunteer public safety groups.

@markeburge @gregeh THIS. Like stop yelling at me, I know exactly where you and everyone else in the vicinity is located because I pay attention like one should while one a bike. Just pass me.
@ecomEddie Most people who come from nothing lack 2 things that Mike does not lack.. 1. The previously acquired skills & experiences to pull this off. 2. The belief and confidence that you can pull this off. “Anyone” can’t accomplish this without acquiring the skills & belief.
