But what a good idea!

What if we closed these 2 blocks to cars all summer, installed some festive LEDs, and invited food trucks? #Coquitlam

I’d love to see this in Vancouver. Is it too late to rethink the Broadway corridor?

Miley Cyrus’s life has been shaped by fame. She discussed how she worked through her complicated feelings about stardom, including the therapy she said had saved her, on “The Interview.” Read more: nyti.ms/3HkMcyz Watch the full conversation: nyti.ms/4jtFe7F

Big red flag. A democracy needs a publicly funded broadcaster untethered to corporate interests. People don’t understand. BTW, Canada’s Poilievre wants to defund CBC.

I wonder if this will be quieter than the older cars www.facebook.com/share/r/1E9W...

Whitecaps get a 2-2 away-game tie to beat Pumas Mx on aggregate and advance to the Concacaf semifinals. Uncharted waters for the Whitecaps. And the semi is against Miami. I wonder if the deity himself will make the trip this time.

I think Metro Vancouver’s Skytrain is the loudest LRT I’ve been on in any City. I remember when it first went through in the 80s and complaining homeowners along the route were told, “Nah! It’ll be really quiet.” I’m paraphrasing.

@jamellebouie.net I always thought “woke” started a Black culture thing. Like “Stay woke; White America isn’t always acting in your interest.” Maybe I’ve been around a while and the meaning has changed? Or maybe I’m just wrong. But it seems to me that you need woke more than ever in your country.

Good Lord. Trump is a threat to everyone.
