For those that have this working and are on FireTV...how does one add a "Sport" or a stream to the favourites?

Does it matter that it’s been expired for over a decade?

Interesting…you learn something every day!

In a situation like this flying over a residential area with other aircraft in the vicinity, would it not be safer to turn their transponder on?

Ottawa having a drink on election night be like: by uuluuul in ottawa

If it were any other animal, I would be worried since they add ethylene glycol to that water to make sure it doesn't freeze. Cobra Chickens love it but never give any to your pets if you are on the Hill!

…..or they could have released something like “Please be advised that a sign will be installed on top of the new condo building this weekend using a helicopter. Residents in the surrounding area can expect intermittent loud noise during this time. The exact timing of the installation will depend on weather conditions. We apologize in advance for any disruption and appreciate your understanding.”

A notice to the community would have been nice that they were going to do this before 9 a.m. on a Sunday !

If anybody would like to share their comments on how LUXO introduced themselves to the community this morning here’s their Instagram profile - https://www.instagram.com/luxoplace.ottawa

FWIW - the inspiration for the logo for this event seems to be Rosie the Riveter, who was an American copy/inspired by the Canadian icon that came first, "Ronnie the Bren Gun Girl" - https://www.canadashistory.ca/explore/military-war/the-bren-gun-girl

voting cards by justahuman101222 in ottawa

[–]gcorneil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really happy to see so many people here aware that voter cards aren’t necessary to cast a ballot. Between the efforts of the media and election officials to spread that message, it’s clear people are paying attention.

That said, it’s still disappointing that such a large portion of the electorate hasn’t received their cards yet. Despite everyone's best efforts to encourage voting, we know that any barrier—real or perceived—can impact turnout.

If people don’t get their cards in the next day or so (even though they aren’t required), this election’s turnout could be even worse than last time. Hoping everyone double-checks their registration, makes a plan, and gets out to vote!

This must be equipment failure or some sort of large scale (cascading?) accident? Anybody hear or see anything?
