M/Cncl in their twisted ideology; prefer crime and attacks upon residents and biz (so long as no one especially police, report on it) ; to #cheapskate citizens patronizing d'twn biz. But hey, we're *vibrant* eh? #YYJ #YYJLowValueCouncil
So what is logical progression of No #Cheapskates allowed in d'twn YYJ? Will it include:
random demands ala border crossing guards, to show ur wallet, search ur phone to justify ur purpose in being here? Being denied entry if you don't produce >$50?
Will enforcers (who will do this?) be converting the Cdn/USD exchange when making their determination?
50.00 Cdn =36.7389 USD Mar 07/2023
no #CheapskatesAllowed in #YYJ
A woman has detailed her frustration after her boyfriend labeled her a “ #cheapskate” for refusing to spend her lottery winnings on a list of things he wants, including a house with a swimming pool and a Tesla.
ProTip to #YYJ M/Cncl
Critics called her a ‘cheapskate’ and mocked her money-saving strategy, but there were also plenty of fans who hailed her a ‘genius’ for the tip and couldn’t wait to try it out for themselves

Bear with me #YYJ folks, got a bit of a thread coming on. Cumbersome, cutting and pasting... and a glitchy computer to contend with; so I'll unroll at end.
working title: I don't think Matt Dell and I are that different
I don't think Matt and I are so different. We both dream of and desire things for our beloved city of #YYJ; that bring joy to ourselves and to our neighbours, now and in future
Help me #YYJ. I'm curious about t/ HumberGreen proposal to include Transit passes.
During the Feb 09 CoV PH re HarrisGreen, didn't t/Starlight rep, when queried on that idea by a cllr, give a very cogent reply as to why that wouldn't be doable? 1/
2/ It's a 4 hr meeting, and not available via text, (pet peeve of mine) so I'll have to wade through the entire vid to refresh my memory on the specifics pub-victoria.escribemeetings.com/Meeting.aspx?I…
3/Also, doesn't city bylaw 80-159 still require min # of off street parking?
Shouldn't we amend bylaws if needed *before* approving variances? victoria.ca/assets/Departm…
It includes but is not limited to:
Recommends actions to improve health and wellness in BC;
Works with the BC Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, and BC’s Medical Health Officers to fulfill their legislated mandates on disease control and health protection.
and "Monitors the health of the population of British Columbia and advises, in an independent manner, the ministers and public officials on public health issues and on the need for public health related legislation, policies and practices;"
The Maskless Masses
A Fri. eve tale (I'll unroll it at end for ur reading ease) Chapter
1/ I'm so angry at all 'pretend covid is over folk'. Tho' that anger is aimed in large part to health officials, this eve it's the unmasked public to whom I direct my wrath. Let me explain:
2/ I was forced to visit LDrugs in person for an urgent Rx.
I really didn't want to expose anyone else and my RATs all week have been neg. but I really had no choice as w/out the meds, my precarious health would be further at risk.
3/Waiting for 1/2hr, w/my always worn N95, coughing almost uncontrollably as dozens of pharmacy patrons. all unmasked (presumably ill/vulnerable) show zero level of alarm, or don a mask even to protect themselves.
I have a serious ? #YYJ#YYJPoli . We're all debating/arguing #housing- what is the best path to get the results we want? BUT - how can we possibly agree on best route; if we haven't even discussed where we want to go? 1/
2/ I mean, really... think about it...
What is our destination?
What do we want #Victoria#YYJ to be now and in future?
How big?
How dense?
How many people?
3/I'm sure we can agree, that the need for housing keeps increasing, both from:
current residents (and I'll add former, who have been forced out)
AND rising demand from ppl wanting to move here to enjoy the west coast life style, climate.
