There has been some discussion over the last few days about the @NCC_CCN's decision to restrict vehicle access to Queen Elizabeth Drive along The Canal. As someone who cares deeply about @ottawacity and city building, I thought I would add my opinion. #urbandesign

Sometimes a crisis hits so hard that a country needs help from others to overcome it. That’s not one-way humanitarian saviourism, it’s international solidarity. 200 South African firefighters land in Edmonton, Canada to help fight the wildfire. Sound up 🔊
