I took it to mean "it has increased to the point we can't deal with it all"

There are ways to do this in a walkable city.

If a grocery store is within walking distance why not make a trip of it with the whole family? Many hands make light work. Or, just because a city is human focused instead of car focused doesn't mean no cars at all (at least in the way I would implement it) you could rent a car for a few hours every couple of weeks.

Obviously these ideas won't work for everyone but they're just off the top of my head, and unfortunately there is no system that will work for everyone. We just have to try for works better.

Great to hear, that is actually a lot better than I would have expected. It would still be ideal if you could use it as easily as someone not using a wheelchair but we do have to live in the real world and accommodating everyone is complicated and expensive.

Absolutely it could be like that, mixed use buildings are something we really lack in North America and are the lifeblood of a city

Or, if we're changing cities already we could make more accessible homes and public transit. If someone in a wheelchair can't get onto a train you've made the train wrong.

Slipknot all day everyday. Fast to tie and untie nothing to lose like a clip or a rubber band. Plus it's just a small bit of fun

This is a great piece of advice thanks for sharing it!

I've tried the CGI frames before but none of them look like real glass to me. I do have a big head though so that's probably a part of it.

For real though, don't ask if I like the new frames I'm trying on. How am I supposed to know? I'm not wearing my glasses

You should take another look at what the CPC is focusing on. At their convention this month they voted on what to focus on as a party; two anti-trans policies passed the policy for affordable housing did not. Is the CPC as far right as the US Republican party, no they're not, but Poilievre is happy to court people who are. Also he won't answer non-vetted questions which is a different issue but still rubs me the wrong way.

Maybe I've missed it but has Poilievre proposed anything for a housing or inflation fix? Most of what I've seen has just been platitudes about how Canadians are hurting and Trudeau is to blame. Obviously not untrue, people are suffering and Trudeau hasn't done enough but saying that is not a solution.

Or I missed his proposals; I try not to get too focused on candidates this far before an election.

Completely agree higher salaries and less bureaucratic breathing over the shoulder attracts better teachers out of the public system and into private schools where only the privileged have access. But frankly who can blame them; here in Ontario the teachers spend more time without a contract than with one and our government tried making it illegal for education workers to strike last year. Wouldn't surprise me if they tried the same thing when there's a strike next month.

An interesting read, I think most of us agree that modern schooling isn't really working for a lot of kids. If interest and real world focused education is going to work though it would need to be a community project rather than individual works. So much of early education is the social skill building and basics about the world that at least at first I think it would need to be fairly structured/standardized (sharing, courtesy, basic reading/math, etc.) Does anyone know if this sort of is being or has been tried on any large scale?
