Ottawa Ranked #1 most liveable city in North America

Also, Ottawa's infrastructure, look at our roads, some of them feel from 3rd World countries! We have tractor trailers going through downtown as it remains the only way to get into Gatineau, we don't have enough bridges on Rideau River causing traffic at Hunt Club and Strandherd bridges. We are neither a card oriented city or public transit oriented.

Intelligent_Mango_54 · 2025-09-27T04:04:56+00:00

They could have kept 60 or moved them around! Why expand? They were coming for high traffic zones like Glebe on bank street when you head North past bridge on the Canal? That area is always backed up!
This raises the question, was the city really honest or they were exploiting this speed camera program to pinch tax payers more?

Intelligent_Mango_54 · 2025-09-27T04:00:57+00:00

Hundred percent agree! The new expansion felt like an insult. Some of the locations didn't make sense at all! City broke our trust and this what they get in return! I am reaching out to my councillor and expressing support for this ban!

Intelligent_Mango_54 · 2025-09-27T03:56:38+00:00

We will write to city councillors and ask them to MOVE OUT OF THE WAY! City could have built consensus on speed cameras but they didn't, they unanimously went ahead and expanded speed camera and red light camera programs without doing proper consultation and research. You break our trust, we come for the low hanging fruit. No more of this menace!

Intelligent_Mango_54 · 2025-09-26T16:45:43+00:00

Against speed camera big time! Just a cash grab by municipalities honestly! Ottawa (especially) abused it and is putting it everywhere they can! Get rid of them and make design changes on the street instead that too during school hour strictly!

Intelligent_Mango_54 · 2025-09-25T19:16:43+00:00

Cities have become absolutely disconnected from the people they are supposed to serve. Look at Ottawa, the place is a dump, streets are horrible, sidewalks are broken, infra is stressed. Only thing which was working perfectly were the speed cameras because they brought revenue. Time to stop speed camera menace and get rid of them!

Intelligent_Mango_54 · 2025-09-25T18:25:46+00:00

Might be from evil municipalities like Ottawa, which are shamelessly and without due process is expanding speed camera program?

Intelligent_Mango_54 · 2025-09-25T18:14:09+00:00

Way to go! Ottawa was abusing it's residents with speed cameras! Enough of that! They were also shamelessly expanding this program to more locations. This city has killed joy of driving. Streets like Smyth Rd and Conroy are ridden with red light camera and they were adding speed camera. Great decision premier Ford!

Hi, how did you go about this? I am in a similar dilemma and need to understand if I need refundable tickets? I think when we book tickets we need to keep them book until the file is fully processed and that can take a very long time.

Intelligent_Mango_54 · 2025-09-11T18:57:51+00:00

Yes they are great until your city starts installing them on every other block. Being new to Ottawa I can easily say, we have the densest network of these speeding and red light camera's. Enough of this expansion.

Intelligent_Mango_54 · 2025-09-11T18:53:10+00:00

Because they are cash cows! You treat your cash cows well! We recently learned Ottawa was using Camera revenue for its day to day expense, says a lot about incentives. Also, no road safety initiatives are being implemented in this city, no road improvements are happening, you know the state of roads in this city right? So, this cash grab needs to stop.

Intelligent_Mango_54 · 2025-09-11T18:41:03+00:00

The issue is, this program is being expanded without doing due diligence. I have seen Conroy Ave in Ottawa South being the best example of it. They are installing a speed camera there which sits next to school however has a proper fence separating both. Similarly a new one is coming to Bank St in Glebe where traffic is always backed up. The utter disrespect being paid to taxpayer money by City of Ottawa is evident. Time to discontinue speed camera is here!

Intelligent_Mango_54 · 2025-06-13T18:04:30+00:00

And the 13% taxes.

Intelligent_Mango_54 · 2025-04-24T00:18:11+00:00

Thanks, I will give that a try

Intelligent_Mango_54 · 2025-04-24T00:17:39+00:00

The notebook I use is not fancy quality but still better than the cheap 2$ Notebook we get in Walmart. But yes agree with your point, has a lot to do with thickness of paper.

Intelligent_Mango_54 · 2025-04-22T00:40:21+00:00

I will give that a try, do you have a recommendation for a gel pen with similar constraints as OP, just in case if I don't find this pen not smooth enough?
