Reminder that the city of #ottawa likes to unilaterally decide when summer starts and ends. Has Britannia Beach been packed for weeks already? Did a 9-yr old just die? Yes. Will this change the city’s approach to funding how the city operates in an era where it’s much warmer for longer? No probably not.

PSA: (and a question). #ottawa and #ontario pulled two ticks off the kid after a hike in Gatineau park. And you NEED to check all of the little ones, especially parts of genitalia you can’t just visibly check. Both of these dots are ticks but unsure what kind. Does anyone know if there is a drop off location to get these tested? Lymes disease is shit and the risk increases a LOT after 24-36 hrs attached #kids#ticks

After a few days of offline due to a faulty modem I was excited to fire up my computer until I opened the news and this was the first news article to greet me:
[BTW....People get your head on straight--Jews are not Netanyahu!!!]
No one was injured after shots were fired at the Jewish girls school in the city's north end shortly before 5 a.m. Saturday.
It makes sense that Ford would call an election because there is no opposition, voter turnout out would probably be the same as last time, the PCs have been using our $$$ non-stop the past few months to highlight their successes and because if PP wins, well there is historical precedent that shows the province would dump his provincial affiliation to the federal #ontario#ottawa#onpoli#cdnpolihttps://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/alcohol-sales-convenience-stores-ontario-1.7213546
A local group wants to make it easier for people needing #paratransit to easily get on board services across #Ontario. Paratransit is for people who cannot easily access #PublicTransit due to their age or #disability.
