If I'm still alive by end of June, sure I'll visit some sites. YEG drivers have been trying to mow me down on my bike everyday.

40 km/h speed limit change in Edmonton led to fewer collisions: study - Edmonton | Globalnews.ca (globalnews.ca)

I find that I have more time to react to pedestrian's or avoid collisions when I'm doing 30-40 km/h in a playground, school or residential area. The only problem is most times drivers behind me are inpatient. They honk or try to overtake. Classic Edmonton drivers.

There was a 2-hour lockdown because a guy was carrying a lighter and somebody thought it was a gun. The "active shooter" was barricaded with everyone else and had no clue what was going on.

Pretty crazy what lengths militaries will go to win a war!

"Project Habakkuk or Habbakuk was a plan by the British during the Second World War to construct an aircraft carrier out of pykrete (a mixture of wood pulp and ice) for use against German U-boats in the mid-Atlantic, which were beyond the flight range of land-based planes at that time."

I'm a school bus driver myself. I'll tell you the issue is that they're short drivers because they pay peanuts. The buses are coming that late because drivers are doing routes after their first routes. All the school bus companies somehow pay the exact same rates. There is no competition between them, but "they're trying everything."
