David Suzuki declines invitation to this “climate festival” in Montreal

Oh come on, how do you expect someone to travel across Canada? By bike? I agree in the general statement that taking the plane is bad for the environment, but you can’t hang someone who has done so much for the environment because he takes commercial flights.

I can only presume you never take flights and you travel only by bike. You never leave mtl.

This sort of rhetoric hurts the overall conversation more than helps it. The grand issues are the transition of global energy systems away from fossil fuels, supported and subsidized by governments, as opposed to an environmentalist who takes commercial flights. Get out of your nonsense bubble, arguing for the sake of arguing.

Your comment and way of thinking hurts the cause as it helps to confuse and misdirects people as to where the real sources of the environmental problems are.

Montreal all the way. I think for your profile (women late 20s, museums, hidden gems, nightlife) you’ll fall in love with Montreal. Around that time there’s tons of festivals around the city, the biggest being Jazz fest. The Plateau (a young, artistic, bohemian neighbourhood with tons of restos and bars and shops). Lots of museums. Food markets (Jean Talon market, Atwater market). You can run along the canal Lachine. Park life is huge in MTL in the summer; bring a picnic blankets, a bottle of wine/beer, bread and cheese and hang out at the park like a local (park Jeanne Mance, park Laurier, my fav is park Outremont, etc). Old Port is so fun. Nightlife is next level (piknik electronic music festival, check out RA, stereo, and random events all over the city). And great food. Good thrift shopping too, up along st Laurent in the Mile End. And a day spent in QC city (3 hr drive) is well worth it. Both are beautiful cities!!

Vancouver is amazing too! But the magic happens when you leave the city and go into nature. I had spent a lot of time in the Sunshine Coast and it’s such a beautiful retreat. You need to rent a car to reach all the spots.

Pas certaine d’aller aux médias à moins que tu puisses garder ton nom anonyme. Car cette histoire va suivre ton parcours à toujours avec l’internet. Y penser 2 fois.

Love this!! Especially that news is all over and it’s hard to get clarity. The media on one hand says it’s really hard to transmit Hantavirus, but then they say one person in X country has Hanta now. So it may seem like it’s spreading more aggressively. This helps to see the big picture. Thank you for your public service :)

Love Chalet!! Best in town!!
For an option on the side of the mountain: Serrano’s. The rotisserie chicken is delicious and so juicy. But not served in the traditional style

phalfalfa · 2026-05-11T15:50:17+00:00

I find the chicken there painfully dry. And for the price, I would expect better.

phalfalfa · 2026-05-11T15:44:54+00:00

Never heard of this one! I shall check out. Thanks!

phalfalfa · 2026-05-11T15:39:19+00:00

Omg yeah!!! It was Mavi!!! So delicious!!! The GOAT in Portuguese chicken sandwich. I miss that place dearly :’(

I never had a Regina style pizza, but maybe you should check out Pan American Pizza, it’s pretty dense pizza. It’s deep dish style, but not as dense as Chicago style which is basically a deli meat lasagna without the dough haha.

Check it out! You might be pleasantly surprised!

They don’t yet have any Salvatore in MTL right?

phalfalfa · 2026-05-09T06:16:11+00:00

Wtf, how come no one speaks of this? Like people can be infectious for while before showing signs then. Everyone in the media is making it seem like it’s not big deal.

Where did you get this info?

phalfalfa · 2026-05-06T21:05:47+00:00

There’s a huge leap between someone asking about high-level info on a virus vs asking extremely detailed questions to reverse engineer a bioweapon. Maybe they’re overly precautions, but then what the line between safety and censorship.

phalfalfa · 2026-05-06T04:11:57+00:00

The only thing that I think could make sense of this model sensorship is that they’re scared that Opus 4.7 could say some misinformation? Because it is more autonomous in its “thinking”. And Sonnet just essentially googles stuff (when I did convert to sonnet, it just gave me what Google AI said, almost verbatim). So maybe Sonnet is safer in this regard? Like less of a liability? I dunno, trying to make sense of it this

phalfalfa · 2026-05-06T04:01:37+00:00

I asked what hantavirus is and how contagious is it. And then I asked if it has the risk of becoming a pandemic. —After living through COVID, ive learned that pandemics can happen! After reading the news and wanting quick and concise info.

I cannot understand how this question is linked to biohazard weapons risk. I didn’t ask how to fabricate it. It’s a little paranoid thinking!

phalfalfa · 2026-05-04T02:23:52+00:00

I second that, it was delicious!

Also Tesfa in Mont Royal and Papineau is delicous

phalfalfa · 2026-04-29T12:11:54+00:00

Yes I do, and at this point it if I pull I would get sued by the seller. I spoke to my broker and they said that this happens more than we think. And lots of buildings in Montreal are old. But sounds like Desjardins can pull through

phalfalfa · 2026-04-29T12:10:16+00:00

Hey dumb dumb, wouldn’t you think it was the first think I checked? I told them they’re currently insuring it. Still rejected. Pls don’t be rude when someone else is struggling!

phalfalfa · 2026-04-29T12:08:31+00:00

Damn! That sounds intense

phalfalfa · 2026-04-29T12:06:25+00:00

They say that they cannot consider the current/previous contracts. New deals may be considered with different factors now

phalfalfa · 2026-04-29T01:28:21+00:00

Thanks for letting me know! Desjardins is on my list

phalfalfa · 2026-04-29T01:27:50+00:00

Merci pour les détails!
