Ottawa has fallen yet further behind on climate action: fully 46% of GHG emissions come from buildings. Toronto has had similar standards for a decade. And this despite having declared a climate emergency in 2019. #OttCity #OttPoli #ClimateEmergency cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/ot…

Ottawa council delays new green-building standard to wait for province | CBC News

The City of Ottawa will wait to ensure builders make new developments more energy efficient, as councillors voted to press pause on implementing new municipal green-building standards.

Dear @_MarkSutcliffe, please don't let the implementation of Ottawa's green building standard be delayed at #ottcity Council Meeting tomorrow. This will benefit future home buyers and tenants through reduced future energy bills. @EcologyOttawa @FFF_Ottawa @ForourkidsO @fca_fac

Our Executive Director @ByAliceIrene explains why voting in municipal elections is essential. "This month, there is one critical way we can meaningfully channel environmental anxiety into action: vote in municipal elections. " #OttCity #OttPoli thestar.com/opinion/contribu…

Don’t just hope for climate action — head to your municipal election voting booth

Joining with others who share our outrage and convictions can be an antidote to despair, reminding us we’re part of a caring community that craves change.

Everything wrong with Ottawa politics in a nutshell: downtown/Vanier/Overbrook is inundated with bikers, massive road closures, people being harassed, and Watson, Hubley, El-Chantiry et al are literally eating cake.
Jim Watson@JimWatsonOttawa30 Apr 2022
Very pleased to join many colleagues and friends of @Eli_ElChantiry as we celebrate his 65th birthday in Carp. Nice touch to have the volunteer firefighters drop by to sing happy birthday between their training sessions today! Eli is one of the most dedicated persons I’ve met

Where were you during the #BattleOfBillingsBridge? I have been to a lot of protests and rallies in my life but today was something I've never experienced before. Extremely tense at times but an amazing mass showing of direct action and solidarity from the #Ottawa community ✊
