Alanis Obomsawin @WabanoHealth "I think we have a real sense now that people are giving you their ear. I believe Canadians want justice for our people."

This is such a great example of the opportunity we all have to benefit and learn from Indigenous re-clamation and renewal. @WabanoHealth Alanis Obomsawin's Wabano-The Light of the Day.

RT @cathmckenna: I want to focus on climate and not Ottawa politics. But politics matters. And I love Ottawa. But as has been laid bare witβ¦

I am proud to endorse β¦@cmckenneyβ© for Mayor. I strongly believe they are the best person to move this city forward in a positive direction. On Oct. 24th, I will be casting my ballot for them. #ottcity

Mayoral enviro debate -- like B Chiarelli's list of what he would NOT fund. New roads, AV transpo corridor, Teiwan devpt
29 Sep 2022
Mayoral debate on enviro -- liking Kadri's points about value/potential of farming, need for regional supply chains, etc.. and Bay's various related points incl potential to better marry Ottawa's high tech and agricultural sectors.
29 Sep 2022
Mayoral debate on enviro. B Chiarelli would freeze taxes. In one of wealthiest cities in one of wealthiest nations facing huge issues and rising inflation.
29 Sep 2022
Mayoral debate on enviro -- Bay making many good points incl need for Invest Ottawa to extend incubation support beyond high tech.
29 Sep 2022
For some reason Mark S showing himself particularly hostile to spending on bike lanes -- hardly a big ticket item compared to roads. N Kadri: we will get 100000 houses over 10 years without any help from Mark S. It's status quo.

Bay showing solid handle on key issues.
28 Sep 2022
@BrandonBay: 100K homes over 10 years is actually status quo; does absolutely nothing to solve affordability crisis; targets must be more ambitious. Elect those who understand zoning bylaw.

Mayoral debate on enviro -- so frustrating to see lack of backbone and understanding vis a vis R1 zoning. Suggesting dismantling R1 will result in high rises in SFH NHs.
28 Sep 2022
Mayoral enviro debate -- toxicity on council being acknowledged as significant issue for which current mayor bears responsibility.
28 Sep 2022
Strong turnout in person and on-line at Mayoral debate on enviro. Adrian H needling in on fiscal issues. Mark S talking "balanced approach". Kadri challenging him to declare intentions re proposed annual tax increase.

Not that I don't get why the Casino wants to prevent free public access to the best spot from which to view les Grands Feux, but still I wonder under whose authority a private enterprise gets to block off a public RoW.

'Fraid so. Not just human life either. No more dithering or calls for a "balanced" approach on emissions reduction. AND let's prioritize nature-based solutions to both carbon absorption and to our adaptation strategies in cities.

Black lives matter #crcbv mural unveiled yesterday, on wall beside Ottawa's first public library on Rideau. Powerful words from father of Tyson and brother of Creflo, two youth murdered in Lowertown.
16 Jul 2022
Peace in the Streets, Lowertown. After the mural unveiling. Now the fun stuff.
