This feels like a metaphor about politics.

Our student theatre group had the bright idea of using actual knives on stage for authenticity. The blade missed my aorta by about a centimetre

Gotta say, of all the Bow River pathway segments, whoever is responsible for the Eau Claire segment did the worst job.
One pass and done, big dump of snow right where the bike lane goes by the new beach. Try harder next time, please #yycbike

This is shared responsibility in action... thankfully no one was hit, but this is a daily occurrence: vids from my ride from Elboya to Ramsay just this morning:
No. 1, buddy in a Tesla in Elboya, blowing the stop sign. Thankfully his tires gripped on the ice, otherwise I woulda been a goner.

Ridiculous
Cllr Atkinson asks about educating public re: pedestrian injuries/deaths. Deputy Chief O'Brien says peds + drivers both need education. People are being hit in crosswalks + jaywalking. Drivers not paying attention. "We’re trying to target everybody because it is a shared responsibility." #yyccc

A WEEK in this city. How is the strategy of "people just need to drive better" going, folks? Don't talk to me about safety in this city unless you're talking about cars. A city built around cars is a city built for death and injury. #yyc

A minivan driver hits two sisters, age 18 and 10, while they're in a pedestrian crossing. The quote from police in this story seems... misplaced? "One of the issues we have is regarding people that just stepped in front of vehicles." www.ctvnews.ca/calgary/arti... #yyccc #yycwalk #yyc

They’ve dumped a bunch of chemicals, some sections of RiverWalk better than others. Hopefully the warmer weather clears the slush out… #yycbike

Resolved… I think they sent a sweeper to do a hand shovel’s job. Moved the snow pile, widened the path on both sides, scraped quite a bit of the ice off. Safe travels… #yycbike

26 Ave SW Elbow MUP in good shape, 2 St SW great with ice patches from the melt.
Dude on the fixie with summers on 2 St SW, impressed with your footwork and ability to not fall over in a heap, but I’m a gonna pass you 🫠 #yycbike

I’m not sure about Stanley Park (prob some chance it’s done, though 42 Ave MUP still done at about 5 pm), but the part of the trail up to Elbow was getting done when I was riding later. Nice, compacted snow… enjoy it before it turns to ice #yycbike

Was going to entertain Stanley Park MUP for a less car-centric ride bike home, but if this is what 42 Ave MUP looks like, don’t quite see the point.

RiverWalk cycle lanes in rough, icy shape on ride back to Ramsay from downtown. Spikes good, but you still get thrown around in the grooves #yycbike
