The LRT is deliberately delayed by giving priority to cars when an LRT is there.

Recent avocacy by TTCriders was successful in obtaining city council approval for signal priority to speed up LRT and streetcars.

Just one more tunnel bro

The Ottawa Citizen is owned by Postmedia. Please use better sources that are not a right-wing American media conglomerate with ties to the Republican party. They also own the Toronto Sun and the National Post.

I’m not sure the org as a whole could survive another strike

There is an easy solution: pay them fairly and give them fair working conditions. That would guarantee that no strike happens.

The corporation has chosen to lose far more money than if they had just given them their reasonable demands. Blame the fat cats at the top, not the thousands of working class people trying to get their fair bit. The fact that it’s disruptive is all the more reason why they should just give them fair wages and solve the problem. But instead they don’t even show up to the bargaining table.

Ontario universities and schools have had repeated funding cuts by premier Doug Ford. We are in a horrible position to be on the receiving end of any brain drain. Some universities are struggling to even stay open despite record overenrollment.

Don’t worry, USA and China. There’s plenty of authoritarianism and human rights violations to to around.

Portions of the “Premier’s briefing” include a detailed map of an alternate route which would have involved moving portions of the highway north and eliminating an interchange altogether, in order to unlock developable lands. Those lands, Global News has confirmed through property and corporate records, belong to Nick Cortellucci — a member of the prominent Ontario-based development family which has a documented history of donating to the Ontario PC Party and benefiting from government decision-making in the form of a Minister’s Zoning Order in 2021.

The ads were mostly run on Fox News…

Yes!

We narrowly dodged a MAGA bullet with Poilievre, but the alternative Carney still replaced our disability minister with an AI minister, then his first bill gives powers for mass deportations… So yes, we must hold power to account and not use the USA as a meter stick.

But the market will figure out the best way to do it! \s

That’s called Eugenics.

So all of them?

I agree with you on their point being conspiratorial.

Egypt also has a very repressive government and has the worst possible CIVICUS rating of “closed”.

They have cooperated with Israel around their genocide and ethnic cleansing of Palestine too.

They are neither humane nor reasonable in their treatment of protestors, including Canadians.

Law enforcement are the ones breaking the law, being violent, and terrorizing communities right now.

Regardless of whether this was law enforcement or impersonators, we must start recognizing law enforcement as the state’s apparatuses for violence that it is.

The problem is not people pretending to be cops, it IS cops. Both historically and today.

Some 50 union members refused to leave the garage as of 6 a.m. after management threatened to dock a half day’s pay if they didn’t attend an “employee appreciation barbecue” next week. Sources in the union say the threat was the “straw that broke the camel’s back” amid budget cuts and worsening labour conditions.

Violent police officers and federal agents are attacking peaceful protestors to and inciting violence

FTFY

Keeping this up

Lemmy is so gay and I’m here for it. ✌️
