Occasional Transport (On BSky)
Yesterday everyone had an opportunity to talk transit, squandered the opportunity, a few "gems" even took time to degrade transit. But one, @laine_johnson1 said what needed to be said, and what I think is a fairly succinct comment on the state of the Transit.

@GillianDaws @frpaul1 'policy' typo instead of police is funny because it seems to be policy to not enforce anything unless they're specifically on a traffic op.

@ottawacity Who asked for plowing, salting & gritting on this bridge? No-one. The NCC pathways aren't plowed, salted or gritted and people use them all winter - the same people (skiers, snowshoers, fat tire bikers) want to use that bridge. Open it! #ottcity

@Lg2022Lg5 @ArielTroster @ShawnMenard1 They are scheduled to be cleared though and not barricaded off for the winter. The problem you describe is a service issue and temporary. But your point is taken.

@GillianDaws @ArielTroster @ShawnMenard1 there are streets in Somerset ward that waited a week or more to be cleaned in several recent winters - not even the sidewalks were cleared - so yes, cars and pedestrians too were asked to either push through or take another route

Some good local news to share for @CapitalWard - we’ve worked with staff to ensure that the Flora Footbridge stairs will be winter maintained this year. No more gates. We will continue working on winter maintenance for other stairs in the ward. #Ottawa #Ottnews #Ottcity

@ASusanChandler @ShawnMenard1 @CapitalWard Agreed! Super thrilled. Despite this being a no-brainer, i know you (Shawn) and the Capital Ward team worked hard to socialize this idea over a number of years and bring it forward. Great win for the ward. THANK YOU Capital Ward team! 🤗👏

This map says it all. Ottawa's finances are in shambles, we have a homeless crisis, public transit is falling apart - but majority of councillors outside core approve bailout for the richest businessmen (and campaign donors) in the city.

@ShawnMenard1 This was not part of the public discussion and @_MarkSutcliffe did NOT run on this platform. If you want to get an idea of how handing over public lands to private developers goes down, I’d suggest City council consider the #Greenbelt scandal as an indication

I brought my daughter to @ShopprsDrugMart for her scheduled pediatric vaccine, after booking appt for said vaccine, only to find out that it's not available. Like, they don't even have it. The rationale given to me was "the website says subject to availability ma'am". 🤯 #onpoli
