Definitely need some speed bumps on that stretch of road, all along Parkside. I really don’t understand why some have already not been installed.

Ironically, people that are severely physically disabled are the ones that won’t be owning cars so a good wheel-chair accessible city with reliable public transit is needed most for them.

Most of America’s suburbs are designed to have a supermarket somewhere on the outside of the zigzagging streets of the residential homes. Golf carts would be perfect, in the vast existing suburbia. Legalize golf carts for slow streets in the burbs, and you’d get a massive reduction in car use. A quick electrification of vehicles.
I like bikes, I get it that many people don’t. But at the very least legalize golf carts on slow streets. I feel that the average suburban home wouldn’t mind getting a golf cart as a second vehicle. It’s a quick way of hopping to the strip mall to get milk, or a morning coffee.

I think there needs to be an effort to advocate for reduced car use, many of the suburbs would be much nicer if people could be allowed to use golf carts on the roads. It would be a step in a better direction, break the obsolete car industry, and bridge to walk-able communities in existing burbs that can’t be easily or quickly redeveloped.

It’s all about protectionism for an obsolete car industry. If we legalized golf carts, and ATVs, most families in the suburbs would buy one of those. They’d use it for groceries, school runs, dentist appointments, and getting coffee down the street. Their main car would sit idle the majority of time, because it’s a hassle to drive a large car. It would make living in suburbia someone more tolerable, as you would see your neighbors more in golf carts.

I wish my city would ban the loud sport cars.

4 years might as well be a lifetime in politics.
NDP don’t want an election right now, they don’t have a leader.

PP has no seat, there will be no by-election anytime soon. What happens to the conservatives in the next few weeks, infighting? Trump is a total wildcard, the next month sometime will have to be done with tariffs as basic goods start to dwindle. Not to mention all the wars going on in the world, or have a chance of breaking out (India/Pakistan).

The government is too easy on crime and we grant people bail who are dangerous to release.

The left has dropped the ball on crime. Official lefty party lines on crime, of tolerating criminals, doesn’t resonate with ordinary people.

Gun control is a waste of time and money and isn’t tackling the real issue as nearly all gun crime isn’t committed by legal gun owners.

The right has created a wedge issue, and exploited it with Twitter trolls and paid shills. We’d be better off doing what Australia did, and ban almost everything.

More housing needs to be made (note that both major parties seem to agree on this).

The right sees it as building more housing, and think it is a simple fix. A small proportion of progressive voices see it as a complex issue of finance and trying to remove corporate ownership of residential stock. The subtle arguments have a hard time being heard.

More infrastructure needs to be built to capitalize on our oil and natural resources exports.

I’ve given up mostly, the planet will burn. Our species is too stupid, eventually we’ll go extinct. Climate will degrade, wars will escalate, and sooner or latter someone will push The Button.

The ‘rust belt’ is over 40 years old now. Places like Detroit have started to stabilize.

The high cost of living is everywhere. Capital moves in the blink of an eye, setup a company in a small town and it’ll be bought up and rented out before lunch.

Conservatives made significant inroads, lots of people in Ontario and Atlantic Canada that heard and liked the anti-woke messaging. I don’t know how to bring these people around, and am frightened that there are so many of them. Over 40% of the popular vote.

Of course it will … hahahahaha

The laws state that regular cars need to meet many regulations, while trucks are exempt from them. So trucks got larger. And without competition from foreign trucks, they got even larger.

Where is the U.S.A going to get the extra gas/petrol? They are an importer of energy themselves. LOL

Look at who they asked to return, such as air-traffic-controllers. Some fights they are losing.

Any important department will them to fuck off with the A.I., but Medicare patients will be stuck with it. It’s a slow moving disaster that any average person sees coming.

He dreams of cutting taxes for the rich, and paying for it with tariffs on Canada. It’s his only dream. He has no clue how to run an economy. He has been bankrupt several times.

The boundaries changed, plagues came through. But politically it was mostly stable-ish of sorts ¯_(ツ)_/¯ as an economic system

Other system are more stable, Egypt lasted for thousands of years, the Ottoman Empire was fairly stable without growth for a 1000. Capitalism is the the system were part of the profit is reinvested into new machinery ‘for efficiency’ to undercut competition. Once we do not have competition because there are only 2 or 3 companies (Coke and Pepsi), they fix prices and work to corrupt government to become an Oligarchy. This is why people make the state that we are entering a ‘post capital’ world.

Good. We need to depopulate by 50%. The earth can’t have 8 billion people. There are less than 30,000 polar bears in the whole world.

The other issue is, nobody is trying to take on Facebook. Not really anything in the FLOSS community like it.
