Prison: Day 5,876
1. In prison, "Peer Support" refers to a wide range of activities where prisoners assist other prisoners. This is seen in emotional support, mentoring, advising, facilitating self-help, education/vocational training, practical assistance and representation.

2. Norway's Prison System said it best, "People go to court to be punished. They come to prison to become better neighbors." Instead of an attitude of punishment, staff fill the role of life coach, training inmates to be peer advocates and better human beings.

3. Here in the States, we have the opposite of the Norway model. Our model is designed around punishment, oppression, and profit by corporations that bankrupt poor and minority communities. Sadly, these same communities are overrepresented in prison.

1. To recap.
Paris: 650 km of fast-tracked bikeways
Milan: 35 km of streets transformed for cyclists/pedestrians
NYC: 100 miles of open streets
Toronto? After weeks of foot-dragging, you may get a short stretch of curb lane closed off in front of a busy grocery or drug store.

2. And it’s not just places like Paris, New York and Milan. Cities around the world and across Canada have been well ahead of Toronto with respect to expanding space for active transportation and outdoor activities.

#Lockdown is critical for slowing the spread of #COVID19, and India has displayed firm resolve in enforcing it.
Massive labour churn; CMIE Data indicates that 120 million people have lost their jobs. We will need strong Govt action to revive the Economy.

We're already in a Global #Recession, the kind of which hasn't been seen in a century. It could get a lot worse, and we need to be prepared. #ViciousCycle 🔁 : Businesses shuttered, Labour furloughed, Expenditure cut and Demand destroyed. @MD_Nalapat

The #lockdown and media-fuelled fear have completely brought the economy to a grinding halt. At some stage, #starvation may overtake #COVID19 as the leading cause of death. States like Punjab are finding innovative ways to balance health & economics.

10 Reasons to Vote for me on Thursday 2/5/19 @re_Ilkley @LabourIlkley @IlkleyChat @IlkleyGazette - Let's work together to #ReImagine #ReConnect #ReNew #Ilkley
I will actively support the application for the River Wharfe at #Ilkley to become a designated bathing area. This will mean more investment by @YorkshireWater to clean up the river and stop raw sewage discharges.

Flooding is a big and increasing problem for #Ilkley. I support measures to slow the rate of runoff from #IlkleyMoor, and measures to slow runoff from our houses and hard surfaces in the town. Let's work together to create a flood plan.
