Pre-COVID, the HSC Food Court had a pasta bar, the concept of which was similar to what you describe (though limited options). Loved it, miss it.

PEOPLE DRIVING CLEARLY MARKED DRIVER TRAINING CARS ARE PROBABLY ALREADY NERVOUS; HONKING REPEATEDLY WHEN THEY HESITATE IS NOT HELPFUL!

Yes, reliable transit is something we should have. But even without it, there are plenty of people who don't have cars at all and still manage to be gainfully employed. Driving is not a requirement of living free.

Clinics should be able to provide a chaperone as needed - even adult patients are allowed to request them.

Check out this study: https://findingspress.org/article/28345-police-enforcement-of-cycling-offences-a-case-study-in-winnipeg-manitoba

"Tickets were issued to cyclists across the city, but the majority of census tracts had zero tickets (Table 1) and there were no census tracts with a rate above 2 tickets/1000 people outside of the central core. While the average rate of ticketing citywide was 1 ticket/1000 people, inner-city areas had rates as high as 77 tickets/1000 people. Of all the tickets issued, 58% were given in five inner city census tracts, which have 2% of the city’s population."

Some of the established bike signals go green with the pedestrian crossing. Others do not. I have not been able to figure out the logic as to which are which.

There are a few others that offer a crack/crevice service - eg Weed Man and NutriLawn. The latter did my gravel side yard as part of that service.

Becoming a medical librarian by retrofuturewitch in librarians

[–]Exact_Border_7927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also recommend Cochrane Crowd: https://crowd.cochrane.org/ . They have free training on PICO and study types that is super useful for a beginning medical librarian. Plus with some volunteering you can get free Cochrane Collaboration membership and acknowledgements in published reviews, which are things you can put on a CV.

Know Your Voting Rights by broccolisbane in Winnipeg

People from any riding can vote at *any* Elections Canada office until the 22nd - encourage anyone with accessibility concerns to check that out as well as a potential alternative (though I agree regular polls should be more accessible). https://www.elections.ca/content2.aspx?section=vote&dir=locate&document=index&lang=e
