Just found out I can't get my COVID booster until the end of October at the earliest, even though I'm high risk and due for one. What the fuck, Ontario? #HealthcareOrLackThereof #Ontario #Covid #CovidBooster

TIL, the city of #Kitchener was named after this fucking guy.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbert_Kitchener,_1st_Earl_Kitchener

Starved 22,000 Boer kids under 16 to death in concentration camps in South Africa circa 1901.

Over 27000 Boers and 14000 Black people died in those camps.

And our last question of the week:

Q8. Do you have a photo to share from a ride or of something cycle-related from the past week? It doesn't have to be anything special. If you'd like to, share one and tell us about it!

This is such a great project by @vlrny.

https://turtlebower.org/about/

Many neurodivergent and disabled people of all ages struggle with housing and as many of us age we are faced with more and more isolation and the possibility of traumatic institutionalization.

Community living has the potential to save lives if done right - if it’s done for and by the people who live in that community and not by ableist people who want to hide away disabled people.

“In its current form, Turtle Bower is a seedling place–an old 3 bedroom farmhouse in a small town just outside of Guelph, Ontario renovated to add a wing with four wheelchair-accessible bedrooms as well as a massive shared kitchen built for co-living.
[…]
Right now we are inhabited by a mix of abled and disabled folks all just trying to get through. We want to be more; we want to be a collaborative co-living household that takes care of all within its borders.”

A vision of community support needs community funding (https://turtlebower.org/donate/)

Ontario, Canada: non ci sono prove che le corsie ciclabili peggiorino il traffico

La discussione sulle ciclabili in #Canada è sullo stesso livello che da noi, ovvero bassissimo e becero.

Il premier dell'#Ontario (conservatore) voleva eliminare con una legge le poche nuove ciclabili di #Toronto, con una sindaca progressista (vi ricorda qualcosa?).
Un giudice ha bloccato la legge, chiamata: "ridurre il traffici, facendoti risparmiare tempo", perché i dati presentati dimostravano che, a causa di ben noti fenomeni (come il #trafficoIndotto), la congestione è in realta migliorata grazie alle #ciclabili.

Adesso la stessa situazione si sta presentando in altre province Canadesi, come in #Alberta, ma il precedente dell'Ontario rende la vita difficile a chi porta avanti posizioni ideologiche e antiscientifiche contro la #mobilitaSostenibile.

Chissà se in situazioni simili da noi i giudici agirebbero nello stesso modo. I dati d'altra parte parlano chiaro.

Toronto/Ontario request. Friend is dealing with a past slumlord at the LTB. Looking for a good rental paralegal that knows how to handle lying slumlords. There is evidence against the lies, plus a bad faith N12.
