🦠Bigger class could mean up to 5 x more COVID-19 infections
And still @fordnation@Sflecce won’t fund smaller, safer classes for our kids.
It’s all dollars & cents to them

The most important thing we’ve learned about illness prevention is these measures only work if people can do them. Many people can’t stay home every time their child has a mild symptom, or even a fever. A sick day may mean missing groceries or a lost job. #onted#onpoli 1/2

Thread:
Despite the nightmare LRT, many #ottcity councillors will tell you, it’s the bus service that generates the most complaints.
For @ottawamag - I dug into just how unreliable bus service in Ottawa is. New stats show it’s barely passing since LRT. ottawamagazine.com
Our preliminary shortlist of what needs to get done to get to zero #emissions in time:
- stop the urban boundary expansion
- build all new builds to a much higher level of #energyefficiency
- invest in the retrofit economy
- invest massively in #transit
- move beyond the car
"CBC requested an interview with the @ottawacity@OC_Transpo but was told the delays weren't urgent enough for a reply over the weekend." Really? Big disconnect! #ottnews#ottcity#ottpoli
More than 50 bus trips cancelled Saturday — and it's not clear why cbc.ca/news/canada/ot…
Why so many cancellations this wknd, @OC_Transpo?? There were >40 reported yesterday (which means actual number was higher) & we’re already >dozen at 10am Sunday...ALL leading to 30- 120min service gaps! This is UNACCEPTABLE.

“We are seeing a surge in attention around urban #trees around the world … not just because they are beautiful, but because cities realize that trees are an important part of resiliency, health, wellness, happiness, economic benefit – the list goes on.” theguardian.com/cities/2019/no…
Really curious to see what this means. More frequent service on existing routes? Buses on standby in case of train delays? Buses that serve the core to help with capacity on the train? When will we hear what the 40 buses will be dedicated to? @barrhavenjan@JimWatsonOttawa
