When the server comes to take our order and I still haven’t decided what I want for my appetizer

This barrier is clearly not enough - even just from a financial perspective the amount of money spent repairing it can’t compare well to the cost of a stronger one

Can I not drink my coffee while I read the book?

A recent news story by Global TV involving a collision between a person cycling and a motor vehicle driver on a neighbourhood bike route last year has brought to light critical failures in the interpretation and enforcement of B.C.’s vulnerable road user law.

Great thread. This story also highlights the problem with almost all of Vancouver's "bikeways" - they're narrow canyons between parked cars. This is 10th Ave, the main east-west route in the city, which Ken Sim called a "perfect bike lane" that negated the need for protected lanes on Broadway. (1/2)

A person is injured, the VPD have failed them, "expert lawyers" are misleading the public, and changes to the MVA are pointless unless actually upheld. THREAD 🧵

How did we end up in this world where it's apparently OK to hit someone with your car?!?

All news apps need a big “hide trump” switch because sometimes you just want to check the football scores without being assaulted by the latest lunacy

I don't have a vote in this by-election (due to living in North Van) but if I did I would be very happy to give one to Lucy and OneCity.

North Vancouver folks - have your say on the future of Central Lonsdale (I’m pretty optimistic on this one)

"Doesn't look that great" but also looks better than 99% of the bike lanes we have in North America 😭

Very on-brand for the VPD to be more worried about a bit of traffic than someone being killed

Mayor Ken Sim everybody:
