Obama: "That well-known evil empire Canada. That historical adversary of ours. Canada! *laughs* It's your neighbor. It's a few minutes' drive over the bridge! These are the people who gave us Martin Short and maple syrup. They are the nicest people! And someone we've gotten them so mad."

β€œCyclists think they own the roads!” β€œOh, are they demanding the whole road be dedicated to bikes?” β€œNo, but they want a bike lane. They should know that are for cars!” β€œSo who’s the one claiming to own the roads?”

I’ve become a regular blood donor this year. Today the needle went in wrong and we had to abort and now I feel bad that I can’t donate blood for another 56 days 😒 Blood donation is easy and safe and I hope some of you take the time to do it too. www.blood.ca/en/blood/don...

Working the provincial election this time. It’s long days and repetitive but rewarding. Helping people vote for the first time, people who have accessibility issues and so on. But I now need to avoid speaking to anyone for an hour.

The District of North Vancouver is not unique. We’ve got a crazy right wing nut job running for mayor, backed by US billionaires and writing letters to Trump to come to his aide. So a traitor too.

Changing the R2 to go to Metrotown has been a real disaster for the bus being regular and on time. More traffic problems are compounding to make it worse. #translink

A little app I built that will scan in your blurry, badly light pictures of barcodes on membership cards. It saves the barcode and will produce a nice clear, bright image when you hold your phone in landscape mode. Works way better with checkout scanners. andymckay.github.io/barcode-scan...

But none of those are the responsibility of the District of North Vancouver. They are Translink, Metro Vancouver and the Province. The Skytrain alone goes through 4 municipalities. Yes we need and advocate and yes our system is complicated, but still what you going to do about the District?

"Sea-to-Sky Passenger Rail" is an additional item on their manifesto. Seriously? What about the Spirit Trail? What about the speed of cars on the Parkway? What about active infrastructure? I think they might be running for the wrong job.

Albertans with Canadian flags attached to their car in 2026 and Albertans with Canadian flags attached to their car in 2021 are completely non-overlapping groups.

If a candidate made it an offence to have sounds from phones in public places - they’d get my vote immediately. This a post about the people on this bus. And the ones from the other night. And the old people playing games on the ferry. #bcvotes
