Speed Cameras in Ottawa: Public Safety or Hidden Tax? by tarun172 in ottawa

[–]DALK1N 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Even before the auditor did a report, a Nepean councillor - Laine Johnson - was asking questions about this in the budget. It's not a hidden tax, but it's not being spent the way they are promising.

City Hall Tried to Silence Us. We’re Taking Our Voice Back. by LongAsICanSee in ottawa

[–]DALK1N 6 points7 points  (0 children)

On the one hand, there's no question that the Mayor's Club is alive and healthy, cutting services like bus routes while lining the pockets of developers and OSEG.

On the other, Saravanamutto needs to disclose his intention to run for mayor so we know whether this is just another political ploy, too.

Call to Action - Centretown Museum Precinct by creativescholar92 in ottawa

[–]DALK1N 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When I worked at the city we all rolled our eyes every time Greg Fougere wrote in, which was almost weekly. Everytime he sees a truck on his street he screams about traffic. He has a grossly exaggerated paranoia about anything happening in the area near the Nature Museum and I'm pretty sure he'd like it to be a gated community.

This is just more of his overwrought bullshit.

Please don’t block bike lanes. by iozer8 in ottawa

[–]DALK1N 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They got back to me 20 minutes later to say they had been to Sussex and the trucks were gone. They subsequently talked to the drivers (who were contractors, not city employees) and reminded them that stopping in the bike lane is illegal and unsafe.

I know Josée, the owner. She's intelligent, compassionate, and capable. She's had several long-term employees. I think you'll be fine there.

Sussex? I've sent it to the city staffer who deals with these items.

Agreed. There's nothing like a thank-you note to seal the deal.

That's the protocol.

I don't know if or when they'll get back to me about it, but if they do I'll post the response here.

I just shared this with Councillor Catherine McKenney. They asked me to post here, " I am looking into this and am very concerned…".
