NarrativeBear@lemmy.worldto Canada@lemmy.ca•WestJet agent rejects First Nations elder's ID card, prevents him from boarding1·2 天前Fun fact (for everyone that does not already know). When Christopher Columbus was attempting to reach the East Indies by sailing west, he instead landed in the Americas, which he mistakenly believed to be part of Asia. He then misidentified the native people as “Indians”.

NarrativeBear@lemmy.worldto Canada@lemmy.ca•WestJet agent rejects First Nations elder's ID card, prevents him from boarding18·3 天前An Indian status card is an official document issued by the Canadian government to First Nations people who are registered under the Indian Act. The card serves as proof of identity and legal Canadian identification, and can be used as ID for domestic flights.
He was then on the phone with WestJet customer service, and they didn’t even know what an Indian status card was. They started asking if Corbiere was from India.

NarrativeBear@lemmy.worldto Fuck Cars@lemmy.world•Canada Day traffic jam raises questions on if Toronto should have more pedestrian-only roadsEnglish6·5 天前Agreed, integrated tram lines at street level would work perfectly in Toronto (as they do all around the word).
Toronto just needs to take some streets with tram lines already in them and turn sections of these streets into car free pedestrian zones. Half if not more trams have boarding zones within a full traffic lane already.
Toronto being toronto through would probably screw it up, turning a non issue into a issue, with pedestrian barriers and over engineering of some sort.

Places that come to mind for pedestrians zones & car free zones.
- King street near Spadina

- Church street
- Parliament street
- Liberty Village
- Kensington Market
- Ossington Ave between Dundas & 8. Queen.
- Roncesvalles Ave
- Parkside Drive
NarrativeBear@lemmy.worldto Toronto@lemmy.ca•Canada Day traffic jam raises questions on if Toronto should have more pedestrian-only roads9·6 天前The answer is yes, Toronto needs Pedestrian only streets! We have no pedestrian only streets currently. Also, pedestrian sidewalks and infrastructure needs to improve quickly. Most sidewalks are not wide enough or inadequate.

NarrativeBear@lemmy.worldto Buy European@feddit.uk•Will Germany's military spending bring economic growth?17·7 天前Give me trains, subways, trams, and buses.

I was interested in Privacy.com but the TOS are only for the USA.
Decrease the need to drive, neighborhoods should be walkable with amenities close by.
Why do we in north America think its normal to drive a hour through congestion and traffic to simply get milk.
