Yeah, everyone, listen to what Steve Bannon’s friend has to say!

Largely accurate! For Edmonton, the new outer suburbs are largely SFH (booo), but are also packed in pretty densely.
In the neighbouring counties, however, you get both similar density SFH suburbs as well as the more sprawly, semi-acreage style developments Urbanity was talking about.

Sorry, I should’ve just looked it up. This does make it look like all the miscellaneous multi-unit infill that isn’t strictly duplex or row would default to “apartment”?

My city has been working on all the redesign and transit stuff you mentioned, but when our stupid provincial government banned most photoradar for political reasons, the rates of speeding and traffic fatalities rose sharply. We’re not better off after getting rid of camera enforcement.

I can’t argue with the top comment here. This guy is a god damned wizard.

I had completely forgotten! I might go back and listen to that one again now, it’s been a long few years since BBC I heard it.
Please keep up the great content on Bluesky, it’s such a lovely feed break from all the important but non-fun news.

I’m sure you’ve been seeing some of this, but I can’t describe how incredibly unique the public reaction has been in Canada. This stuff has hit such a raw nerve that people are seething and hell-bent on resisting.

But also:

Absolutely. For friends, coworkers and neighbours who’ve fallen for that kind of thinking, we should all have some patience for bringing them back into the fold.

But for people who know better and still take MAGA’s side over Canada’s? There’s no room for them here.

One of the things that feels so baffling about the “manosphere” (ugh) is that every dude who’s into that shit strikes me as being very far from what I’d ever consider “manly”. They feel less “Ron Swanson” and more “Ziggy from The Wire”
