Congrats to Rhianna Nagel, new Manager of the Centre for Applied Research, Technology & Innovation at North Island College. Collaborations over several years have been rich learning experiences for @uvic students w real contribution @OaklandsRise #Woonerf Thank you, all the best!
Most see ease as the ultimate gift in life, but willingness to welcome discomfort that opens to gifts within oneself. These are meant to be shared: #experience, #learning, #compassion that does not enable, but empowers. Still, we seek to spare our #children any form of dis-ease.
“Konoway tillicums klatawa kunamokst klaska mamook okoke huloima chee illahie,” which translates as “everyone was thrown together to make this strange new country.” @timescolonist Thank you & farewell, Iona Campagnolo
@VoteYYJWilliams It is unfortunate that the government treats all landlords as equal. Far easier to absorb a month's rent in a 100-suite complex than in a suite or duplex unit owned by a couple hoping for a retirement income.
Pretty special when you get a photo of your nephew holding an Emmy ... good on 'ya Corie Tornack
Discovered @coldxman on YouTube. Refreshing to find a thinker who aligns (so far as one can know from afar) w my own thoughts. Lived in many cultures, 4 countries & worked in more. Learned as a child that "othering" is the prob, parsing by identity as if we have but one. Kudos CH

The five-over-one type does not require the nonsensical & pastiche Ransom Note Style. The exact same type could look like this. There is no excuse for foisting the unlovable upon the city.
You might not like the way they look, but Five-over-Ones have unlocked walkable, mixed-use neighborhoods for hundreds of thousands of people over the past decade. The YIMBY and urbanism movements wouldn’t be half as popular as they are today without these.

@VoteYYJWilliams It is unfortunate that the government treats all landlords as equal. Far easier to absorb a month's rent in a 100-suite complex than in a suite or duplex unit owned by a couple hoping for a retirement income.
Regional transportation needs to be efficient as living within walking/biking distance of work, school and amenities isn’t always feasible for all members of a household.
Wyatt succeeded in raising $75 for the Mustard Seed today and plans on doing the table again before school returns on Wednesday! Thanks to those who came out and bought something…
What if this kind of change was business-as-usual for cities? It would save lives & reduce crashes for everyone, improve public health & livability, decrease pollution & climate change emissions through increased walkability, & much more. It wouldn’t take much. Just leadership.
Architects must relearn the art of the base. It's not the quantity of glazing. These are similar in that regard. It's the lack of structure, proportion and blind repetition of the modern design, and above all the lack of any sense of grounding, like a person without feet.
Things I’d like to get much better at: gardening. Thankfully soon, I’ll have a garden of my own again.

@WarrenSkaalrud I don’t understand why it can’t be both.

@rightstoday The hypocrisy of voting themselves a 25% raise while voting against something that would give a break to some poor folks who are taking massive financial hits on STRs is beyond. It's appalling.
@DeanFelicetti Hehe I find as I get older I'm definitely getting a bit more curmudgeonly. I still try to avoid naming names to protect the guilty, but yeah :)
Over last few years the city of Victoria has been doing various underground and road projects that revealed the old streetcar tracks that were hurriedly covered back in the day. They have displayed some of the old track to remind us what we lost lol #BringBackTheStreetcars #yyj
