This is pretty awesome! I guess unless you're regularly travelling on STO as well there really isn't a point to buy a bus pass now?

Totally agree we should invest more in trains and other forms of transit. Especially in areas where it would relieve a lot of car traffic like the Toronto to Montreal route. I dream off a day where I could ditch my car and be easily able to travel between those cities without breaking the bank, or being stuck with freight rail traffic. Honestly I think I would settle for VIA having more priority on the rails. The travel time isn't that bad when compared to driving. The costs and the uncontrolled delays are really killer.
With that being said, I think Canada would be better off aligning their tariffs on China with the EU. I don't think we need to cut of China completely but we would be better off aligning with the EU and keeping our options open to have a diverse set of trading partners instead of relying on one big partner like we do now with the US.
I actually lived for a short while in Hintonburg and though it was pretty walkable. Looking at availability right now its been hard to find anything in that area that has 2 or more bedrooms and is less than 3k a month. Glebe & Westboro also seems like they would be great but I'm not seeing a lot of availability :/
How long does it take you to walk to a grocery store? I'm looking on google maps and it only really looks like there are the stores on bank st you could walk to and it honestly doesn't seem like that great of walk. Like most of the neighbourhood is > 30 minute walk to them. Are there any other stores nearby you can walk to < 20 minutes?
I'm not sure if you can do it without authenticating on the remote. Have you seen sshuttle? Maybe you can run that on the remote to connect to the local machine. If the issue is that the remote "can't see" the local machine to ssh into it then you could try something like reverse tunnel the ssh port to the remote, and then use sshuttle to connect to the local port that is forwarding traffic.
Would be really happy if Canada was a future EU member 🤞 but this doesn't instill much confidence https://www.politico.eu/article/canadians-want-join-european-union-will-never-happen-paula-pinho/ 😔
Yeah, honestly I am not really opposed to this idea. In a busy environment like downtown having less things to focus on while you're driving makes it so much safer for everyone.
When I lived in Spain you weren't allowed to turn right on red and most turns were controlled with a light within cities. Made driving so much easier and less stressful since I usually only had to focus on looking in one direction when I was turning.
