Be a friend we're all in this together!
One way or another we will beat this, as long as we can stay respectful and united together.
If we give in to the chaos of this circus, it will be extraordinarily hard to stop the change.
Support each other and endure.

Great coverage from Elina Ellis and Nyla McEwan at Capital Current about the issues with Bank Street and why bus lanes are needed if we want any serious chance of success for Lansdowne 2.0.
It's great to see so many different groups realize we need bus lanes!

Snow ending by 5:30 downtown. 5 at Bayshore. Earlier out west. 5:50 onwards Orleans.
The trailing edge should be fairly heavy. So expect a moderate dump around 5ish +/- 30mins
10-12pm is still forecasted for a lil snow, for the night hawks.

I splurged a little and got myself some Blond/Light coffee. After drinking cheap mediums, and the odd smokey dark.
It's nice to be back. Some people hate a fruity coffee, but it's a nice change once in a while.

The heat is a lie. Pressing the button merely alerts OC Transpo operations centre so they can huddle around the CCTV feed and laugh at you while you freeze. They’re then compiled into a ‘Best Of’ reel for the City Council Christmas party because our transit suffering pleases 16 of them.

1. I got to catch a bus at 5:50am, So my commute is not 2 hours
2. Other people are generally not great, less so, drunk
3. Who wants to pay a lot of money to just stand around/be seen, and drink? (Aside from socialites)
4. We need 5 AM coffee/transit clubs ♥️

Bayshore apartments just had 8% just got approved (2.5 over), I mean how else are they going to recuperate the 8 million dollars that they put in to making the place look good, so they can sell more units?

They're going to write books on the level of corruption. Doug Ford puts out.
Now in a giant pork bill, they are looking to open the door for points to expire.
Points like gift cards, are corpo money up-front, but hang as an expansive liability on the books till the corpo defaults.
Boo Hoo 😁
