JustGYou know what would be great in 2025 <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/canada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#canada</a> ?? To buy MEC back from the American vulture capitalists Kingswood Capital Management. Fuck American private investment firms that exist to suck out profit and not benefit the communities they serve <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/ottawa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ottawa</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/canada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#canada</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/cdnpoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cdnpoli</a>

bjb :devuannew: :emacs:The electrical grid is still struggling. I heard the UPS beep a couple of times just now, and the stove fan even stopped at those instants. (Oven is on, so the fan is on.) Interestingly, the display panel is still on and the clock didn't reset.<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/ottawa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ottawa</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/hydroOttawa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hydroOttawa</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/ontario" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ontario</a>

Dianora (Diane Bruce)It's freaking warm outside (I was looking at my crocuses!) get outside while you can!<a href="https://ottawa.place/tags/Ottawa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ottawa</a>

Dianora (Diane Bruce)Oh I didn’t expect this after the last snow fall and rain! They are popping up in the front lawn now here and there!

JustGI’ve been thinking on this for a long time and given what is going to happen to the bike industry in the <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/usa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#usa</a> there needs to be a grassroots reimagining of the bike industry. Canada needs to onshore regular and cargo bike manufacturing. The bike industry is collectively on aggregate focused on sport, selling new models like their iPhones. The bike industry needs to become part of the “transportation” industry <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/ottawa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ottawa</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/ottbike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ottbike</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/biketooter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#biketooter</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/cdnpoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cdnpoli</a>

John Francis 🦫🇨🇦🍁💪⬆️Reports from light sleepers and canines are that there was thunder last night in <a href="https://cosocial.ca/tags/ottawa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ottawa</a>, but I didn't hear any myself.

Myke<a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Ottawa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ottawa</a> Anyone a good surgeon with an angle grinder? I need some metal chopped out of an 19" server rack. Can deliver it to you, but must be a very good job, break the edges, etc. Shrapnel cleanup is a bonus.

N.P.

Dianora (Diane Bruce)Remember the destroyed Bell box that a car plowed into? It’s gone!<a href="https://ottawa.place/tags/Ottawa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ottawa</a>

Dianora (Diane Bruce)Anyone else feel the forced amalgamation of the townships into Ottawa was a bad idea? Or is it just me?<a href="https://ottawa.place/tags/Ottawa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ottawa</a>

JustGIt’s not lost on me that it takes more than a message, especially with the way the current mayor has run things. But I don’t think “balanced approaches” have much life left in them given the world. Promising the world and saying all the low taxes and wide roads and blah blah blah can’t have much staying power especially if cars are about to get 25% more expensive <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/cdnpoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cdnpoli</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/ottawa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ottawa</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/onpoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#onpoli</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/ontario" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ontario</a>

JustGHere’s some <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/cdnpoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cdnpoli</a> hot takes given its an election and why not - if Pierre loses, its a toss for Ford or Smith as leaders of the federal <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/conservatives" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#conservatives</a> And given the data and polling from <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/ottawa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ottawa</a> centre, Joel could mount a decent run for mayor in 2026 if he could get his ground game extended into the suburbs. I dont hold much hope for Ottawa but there’s gotta be someone who can galvanize the burbs with the right message <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/ontario" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ontario</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/onpoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#onpoli</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/canada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#canada</a>

JustGWell this is fun. Buried in here is a note that both <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Gatineau" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Gatineau</a> and <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Ottawa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ottawa</a> mayors want voting positions on the NCC board because quality of life is predicated on travel times for people driving a car about all else and you know what will be first on the chopping block.

Dianora (Diane Bruce)Looked so sunny out that I had thoughts of cleaning up garden but then I checked the temperature.... NOPE. I was fooled by all this Sun eh?<a href="https://ottawa.place/tags/Ottawa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ottawa</a>

katHey <a href="https://spore.social/tags/Ottawa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ottawa</a>, there’s a Hands Off protest at the US embassy on Saturday!<a href="https://spore.social/tags/HandsOff" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HandsOff</a> <a href="https://www.mobilize.us/handsoff/event/769545/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.mobilize.us/handsoff/event/769545/</a>

JustGCulturally the thing I’m thinking about regarding Pierre’s “women are only useful when their reproducing” bullshit is that… are we really in a housing crisis when the explicit message is you can’t have kids if you don’t own a fucking single family home? It’s classist bullshit, its racial in nature if you see who live in multi-unit buildings, and it perpetuates the ladder that has led us to the fucking attic of capitalized housing <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/canada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#canada</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/cdnpoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cdnpoli</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/ottawa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ottawa</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/onpoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#onpoli</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/ontario" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ontario</a>
