Victoria is a very comparable city to Halifax in a lot of ways.
But when you look at Victoria’s investment in cycling over the last 10 years, there’s really no comparison at all.

Yesterday I was up on that pipeline route and a First Nation land guardian was explaining to me the riskiness of shipping oil on those waterways and I kept thinking: how f-ing broke is Canada that it’s thinking of doing this? This is ‘selling your kidney’ level of desperation.
Lets face it, this is a good day for oil companies, businesses, and those in the oil sector. Its a bad day for the environment and for reconciliation with Indigenous nations whose lands this thing will go over. As Blanchet stated, this is the official end of Canada's climate commitments.

The puns have yet to cease, and why would they yet? Because we’re living in a world where Jays just handed a $210 million deal to one of the most durable, highest-strikeout starters in the sport.
