SPOILER: This stretch of Bank is in desperate need of attention however this paltry initiative - as well meaning as it may be - will ultimately result in no noticeable improvements. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Prove that you are making maximum use of available land within the urban boundary before expanding out. The City of Ottawa's addiction to sprawl and it's refusal to raise taxes to pay for and maintain the services and infrastructure for said sprawl is unmanageable. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

To be clear: Assaulting police officers and destroying property on January 6? Totally fine. Pardon them all. Showing up at an ICE Facility to demand due process? Criminal. The Republican Party is irrevocably broken. Vote all these idiots out.
