Today’s Vancouver Sun ePaper morphed into The National Post. This is the front page.
This photo was taken yesterday (photographer unknown) from the front yard of my former Elliott Street neighbours in #Summerland.
If you are riding through John Hendry (Trout Lake) Park this evening, there's a barrier on the piece of the BC Parkway bicycle path adjacent to the soccer field. There's a leak in the irrigation system. #bikeyvr #Vancouver
My #FIFA hydration break is the perfect beverage for tonight's USA vs Belgium game. A Belgian-style beer brewed in #Burnaby- @dageraadbeer.bsky.social Go #Belgium 🇧🇪
What a beautiful Canada 🇨🇦 Day afternoon for riding along the West Dyke Trail in Richmond.
I'm looking forward to hearing my wife and her West End Singers choir colleagues at this performance tomorrow evening.
The on again, off again ceasefire with Iran adds to Trump’s collection of FIFA peace prizes.
My wife and I love having the Commercial St Cafe within walking distance of our home.
Once again, drivers block an intersection because they proceed into it when there are no empty lanes on the other side. Note the 3 drivers on Broadway blocking people crossing on Lakewood Drive. @visionzerovancouver.ca @theicbc.bsky.social @hubvancouverubc.bsky.social @cityofvancouver.bsky.social
Meanwhile in #Vancouver the majority on Council don’t want bikes on Broadway. Even if we do spend money.
Having recently spent a lot of $$ shopping on Broadway I really don't understand why council and businesses want to make it difficult for people to #ShopByBike
You can see BC Place & the decorated cement pillar with a FIFA peace prize logo. If you're attending World Cup games you'll see this view as you'll need to walk from Mainstreet/Science World SkyTrain Station to the stadium since the Beatty St exit at Stadium/Chinatown Station is closed. #FIFAlogic
Remembering the "Four Dead in Ohio" - killed at #KentState by the National Guard on May 4, 1970.
Apparently, Doug Ford thinks the solution to speeding drivers is better signage. Maybe these near all Ontario schools? 👇
There was a good crowd today at Champlain Square in #Vancouver (Housing Minister Gregor Robertson has his MP office there) to demand an end to subsidies to #LNG polluters and instead to invest in clean, #RenewableEnergy.
The way too common #Vancouver "tradition" of blocking crosswalks at intersections. Main St at 5th Ave
My ride home was beautiful. Looking west at Yaletown from the Cambie St Bridge. #Vancouver
