Last week, we delegated against recoupling the Airport Parkway Western MUP project to the widening of the parkway at PWIC. Unfortunately the motion brought forward by Councillor Kitts passed 7-5. Read our delegation. #ottbike #BikeTooter #ottawa

Crazy #windy conditions. Got a late afternoon walk in which was blowy enough, but it's really howling now.
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.
Chris Barber, Tamara Lich found guilty of mischief for roles in Freedom Convoy
> Chris Barber and Tamara Lich have been found guilty of one of the several charges against them for their roles in the 2022 truck convoy protest in Ottawa.
Today, Chris Barber & Tamara Lich were found guilty of mischief for their roles in Freedom Convoy.
Under Canadian law, every one who commits mischief that causes danger to life is guilty of an indictable offence and liable to imprisonment for life.
Never forget Pierre #Poilievre and the Conservative Party of #Canada supported the convoy, the blockades, and the #Ottawa occupation.
They even brought them doughnuts.
Today is #Ottawa's first 19°C of the year. Typical first is April 16. Record earliest is Mar 9, 2000; latest May 14, 1917. #YowWx #OttWeather

17 degrees in #Ottawa today. It snowed yesterday. There was freezing rain earlier this morning. If you woke up this morning and couldn't decide if you wanted to be the nice, approachable you, or the grumpy, mad, "get off my lawn" you, know that you're not alone. And if you're in #Ottawa and need a reminder, just look outside. Then look outside again on Saturday, when we're getting snow and 4.

Governmental Ottawa in a nutshell. The Senate of Canada, in conjunction with their partners at the City of Ottawa, the Province of Ontario, the National Capital Commission, the Parliamentary Protective Service, and the Algonquin Anishinabeg, can not find a guy to shovel that patch of the walkway, because winter is hard. #Ottawa #Photography
It's freaking warm outside (I was looking at my crocuses!) get outside while you can!
Today is #Ottawa's first 17°C of the year. Typical first is April 13. Record earliest is Mar 5, 2024; latest May 5, 1947/1956/1971. #YowWx #OttWeather
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! There are more to come.
My friends in the catering business tell me that functions on Parliament Hill are Hell. By the time everyone and everything is through security, the it's time to go home. Not sure what these chefs are up to, but the hat-less fellow on the right has a tray of food. #Photography #BlackAndWhite #Ottawa
The Green Shoots of Spring, a Continuing Series: A time of transition and rule-breaking. The decaying carcass of the recently-deceased Hudson's Bay Company breaks down in the Market, and chaotic green emerges in defiance of old rules. A new order will form over time. #Photography #Springtime #Ottawa #GreenShootsOfSpring2025
The Green Shoots of Spring, a Continuing Series: As Ottawa swings between heat waves and ice storms, partial green glyphs emerge from the roadwork. What do they mean? Something about bikes. It's the sort of thing that looks great in AutoCAD, but is baffling in real life. Only the most brave bicycle downtown. #Photography #Springtime #Ottawa #GreenShootsOfSpring2025
Oh you want to figure out how to bike or walk to get a weeks worth of groceries? $400 seems like a lot until you’re not paying $200 a month on car insurance and this will last you for 10 yrs. We bought a Thule Chariot pre-COVID for like $800 and put thousands of kms on it for transit, fun, groceries, going to the museum, living life and sold it after 5 years with one replaced front wheel. People need to see the options #ottawa #onpoli #ottbike #ontario
