Vile graffiti on Halifax synagogues is being used to falsely condemn anti-Israeli protestors - Halifax Examiner
In the time it took me to write this, probably dozens more people have been murdered in Gaza.

This event should be cancelled completely, but shutting down the venue to spectators and making it no longer profitable is good news. Our collective voices make a difference. Speaking out against injustice matters. Free Palestine!
I contacted #Halifax communications and the city WILL NOT be giving the $50,000 to the Davis Cup.
“the event no longer delivers the tourism, economic and other benefits that would have been expected had it proceeded as originally planned.”

Ditto Maggie’s 311 response. HRM depends on resident’s input. Writing to councillors is a good idea only after trying this, and for an issue like this effecting many people, trending the number of responses helps. (This is D9 area now too since the 2024 election.)

Out for a stroll this evening, I saw someone I know with what seemed to be a new e-scooter. Talked to them and they got one to replace their Halifax car commute downtown and back!!!!
Said they got tired of spending 30 mins in the car while watching people on bikes and scooters cruising by. 1/2

Folks are terrified of the NYC subway, think DC is a gang ridden hellscape and have other often irrational fears, but here's the truth, other than disease or an abusive partner with a gun, you're most likely to be killed by a reckless driver, and we barely acknowledge it's a problem.

BREAKING: One of the most important and prominent reporters on the ground in Gaza has been Anas Al Sharif.
He - and several other Al Jazeera journalists - have just been assassinated by Israelis forces whilst in their press tent in central Gaza.

I'm a broken record preaching to the choir, but I do think it's worth emphasizing that cyclists (and pedestrians) are afraid drivers will kill them. Drivers are annoyed that bicyclists will slow them down or be rude to them.
