Wildlife-unfriendly suburbia
The 70-kilometre-long agricultural irrigation channel is a wildlife graveyard.

"Birds, kangaroos, wallabies, possums, you name it. Various animals [are] getting trapped in the channel... More and more native animals are being hit on our roads...It's because our areas are growing and our government hasn't considered how we can build the infrastructure that we need while also considering the needs of native animals and how we can protect them."

“It's a far cry from typical North American #bike #infrastructure. If a road does have a #bikelane, it's never wide enough for two people to ride next to each other and have a conversation.

🤔 Why Do Companies Put #Bikes in Their Ads

Bike PrettyWhy Do Companies Put Bikes in Their AdsI've been collecting ads that use bicycles as a metaphor for peace of mind and fun. While TV shows and movies will often put a character on a bike only to have them crash horribly (because car companies finance them?), advertisers know bikes mean freedom for their target customers. These ads are neither for bikes nor a

I agree 💯 except I think the government could just print the money rather than go into debt.

Carney has also removed the communities portfolio from the Minister of Housing and Infrastructure. We must also fight for communities to be given a voice, especially when it comes to housing. We don't need more suburbs that are built without parks, schools or even stores.

“The Silent Reordering: How China Builds While America Shouts”

by Pascal Lottaz in Pascal’s Substack on Substack

“The future won’t be won on battlefields, but on construction sites. And if the choice is between bombs or bridges, most of the world already knows what it wants. China isn’t rising because it’s aggressive, it’s rising because it's useful”
