I'm about to create a "Snow Clearing Budget" graphic soon that people can use to shut the dummies up in Edmonton. I'm so sick of people lying and saying we have less roadway than other cities and should be able to make due with $67 million only as everyone else spends $100 million+.

Budget literacy amongst the Edmonton population is absolutely in the toilet judging by the comments on the city's posts about anything. Bike lanes and Explore Edmonton being blamed for a low snow clearing budget 🤦 If anything, the city should spend some money educating these people.

Talk about a biased headline while the by-line reads they're going to invest in more buses. How is that a bad thing?? Did Karen Principe write this article or something, lmao

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing.

They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays.

The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k.

You can just go on the internet and lie! 😮 *shocked Pikachu face* This diatribe comes courtesy of another fine Edmontonian just vibin' and pissin' in the wind about the snow clearing budget. Didn't know Nicaragua had snow, news to me!
#yeg #citybudget
In response to an Instagram comment of mine critical of everyone complaining about snow clearing and extensive cost that would be associated with it (spelling mistakes are the original commentor): "here's some info that might make yoh realize why the majority of people are upset. In Nicaragua it takes them less than 48 hours to clear all roads and they have less than a budget than we do. In Ottawa they have the snow cleared in less than 24 hours and say that large snow piles are a 'risk' (due to emergency vehicles getting stuck which has happened in Edmonton lots). Let's look at what we do have. Edmonton is 120000 km in road to plow. If you get 40 plows (not an unreasonable number) to work 24/7 (like it is now apparently), and you had the trucks going 5KM to blade it, it would take 2.5 days which is shockingly close to other cities snow removal... huh. As many others have said property taxes have also gone up quite a bit. This isn't the first year we get snow, we should have a way better system than this, and last year seemed way better than this year with snow removal. And no Toronto and Montreal does not have half the road ways we do (although bigger budgets) thats not excuse for a city to be in disrepair in the winter because we cant use our 60 million budget for snow removal like it should be. There is a reason people are upset and we shouldn't have ambulances and school buses getting stuck in the snow or a mayor or blocks people from commenting to him. A little respect for your common human and how this effects them goes a long way before you throw a temper tantrum and tell people to just leave."
