Managing heritage in city planning. Opinions on other subjects are all my own. The rest shouldn’t embarrass my employer. I hope.

Udder genius.

Tomorrow night! We'll walk in the hoofsteps of an escaped cow who rampaged through downtown Toronto exactly 110 years ago. Jamie Bradburn (@jbcurio) & I are teaming up for this weird historical walking tour!

The history of #Auschwitz is a warning of where human hatred may lead to. It is a call for moral responsibility & action. Today & in the future. In social media, we depend on your support. Use your voices to amplify ours. Please help us preserve the memory & never forget.

Can’t get enough.

It snows about 7-8 months a year in the north. I have to do this about 6-7 times in 24 hours when it snows. Now you can calculate how many times I remove snow from my deck every year. Good exercise, eh? Besides the winter workout, I'm sending you warmth, joy, hope and positivity.

Plans for increasing multi-family #housing in cities like #Toronto should explicitly include the provision of public spaces—parks, intergenerational community hubs, complete streets—to achieve good density & social cohesion.

My American mother told me I was against God. She observed that they (they?) need a parade to legitimate themselves. She was sorry that I would never have commitment in my life (20 years and counting…💕). Today I say: who doesn’t love a good parade? 🏳️‍🌈 washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/…

Brilliant answer, but what I really want to know is: what did they wear? 😜

A journalist asked NZ Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern if she was meeting Finland's PM Sanna Marin because they were both "similar in age and got a lot of common stuff." Her response is everything. 🇳🇿 🇫🇮

Brightening up the darkness. In the boreal forest around my cabin, I created joy, hope and positivity during the long and snowy night of the Yukon. Now, I am sharing it with the world. *** Fiddle Addition: Maria Cherwick of St. John's, NL *** YouTube: youtu.be/bRvhn-Uu15Q

In praise of libraries.. "when I was writing my first book, I found myself in the main branch of New York City’s public library ... because the space itself seemed most aligned with the task of writing. It was like going to church to pray" nytimes.com/2022/11/23/opi…
