@BrentToderian @bradpettitt Reminds me of a great ad from Seattle: 200 people in cars, on bikes, and light rail. nitter.gq/adamjcs/status/5294316…

Great tweet. The “i would not give my daughter her bunny bc it required an intermediary who is not on the divorce mediators approved list” message is sure to resonate.
Replying to @berniemoreno
@berniemoreno please stop the lies. As everyone can see in the below screenshots, mine and your daughter’s parenting coordinator reached about the bunny asking if you can come pick it up from me after she forgot it at my house. I said sure. Then, a man who is not on our approved list reaches out to me offering to come to my house to get the bunny, to which I said it was inappropriate of him to insert himself in family business and that I was waiting for you, @berniemoreno, like we agreed upon. My daughter got her bunny back in 14 hours, no thanks to you. Glad this made national news though.

While supply gaps for some critical minerals are narrowing, key risks remain Investment momentum in critical minerals has weakened recently & export restrictions are on the rise Without further action, copper could see a 30% supply shortfall by 2035 👉 iea.li/3ZVJYMv

“They cut speed limits, changed street design, removed space for cars…Now it appears that work is paying off. #Oslo & #Helsinki are reaping the rewards of committed action on making their roads safer, reducing pedestrian fatalities to zero last year.” theguardian.com/world/2020/m…

K-8 students who live within ONE MILE: in 1969, 89% walked or biked to school. in 2009, 13% walked or biked to school. That suggests parenting culture plays a much larger role than car culture. Or parenting culture IS car culture.

Plotted N040 onto an old Bateman cross section. North Zone drill program finding lots of mineralization in areas that were completely blank in the historical resource estimate. $oco $orrcf $oco.v @OrocoCorp #copper

“Someone with a 1-hr car commute needs to earn 40% more to be as happy as someone with a short walk to work. On the other hand, if someone shifts from a long commute to a walk, their happiness increases as much as if they’d fallen in love.” #CityMakingMath fastcompany.com/3062989/50-r…

Had a nice meal at Nook on Yew last weekend outside on their sidewalk patio…was thinking how cool it would be if that whole block was closed to cars. Massive patios on both sides of the street. Would be so incredible, so signature block for the city!

The consensus Bear in base metals and especially copper has gotten to a point that I feel a need to knock out a counterpoint, with the disclosure that my money as of the past few weeks is *heavily* where my mouth is, so yes I am talking my book - bias galore. A thread 🧵 1/

It's Survey Sunday! Today we're filling out a survey about cycling infrastructure through Kitsilano Beach. There are a few VERY VOCAL anti-bike contributors whose opinions need some counter-balancing. shapeyourcity.ca/kits-beach-…

I'll recommend a stop at kitsbeachcoffee.com/ on the new Kits Beach Park path on Arbutus. James, Sarah and TJ serve great iced coffee and healthy treats!

What's up @CityofVancouver? This was a popular and welcome change to the area. Traffic had adapted and people were enjoying the space.
How it started. How it's going.

The fact that this country has not come to a standstill after finding a mass grave of children means we need to come to standstill to try to absorb what that says about us.

It would really be a tragedy if this awesome little space was given back to cars after the pandemic. 90% of the car traffic in this block is just people circling around looking for parking. This space is so much more valuable as a little pedestrian plaza.
