University of Ottawa has just issued an emergency lockdown alert citing a “violent threat on campus” Not immediately clear what‘s happening

An oft-repeated statistic says men apply for a job when they have 60% of the qualifications while women wait till they have 100%. Pretty sure that stat was debunked, but … Several men seem to think that being Mayor is a suitable starter job for someone with no municipal experience. It’s not.

The level of anger @timtierney.ca is odd. If kids acted this way we would scold them, and he thinks it's funny. Not the kind of example I expect to see in a professional environment

Just now - Councillor @shawnmenard.bsky.social is interrupted by Councillor @timtierney.ca while asking questions on Lansdowne. Menard pushes back, then Tierney calls him an "asshole". This behaviour is unbefitting of a councillor, and demands an integrity complaint. ➡️ integrity@ottawa.ca

Could it BE anymore obvious? #Ottawa city council needs to go back to the drawing board. If only councilors considered what their constituents want not just business needs.

New Polling Results on Lansdowne 2.0 from Nik Nanos. The more people know about the plan, the more they don’t like it. Most believe it won’t stay on budget, would prefer repairs to existing, oppose the loss of greenspace and arena capacity and extra debt.

The way these two were spoken to during the delegation was unprofessional -- I can't understand why the Charge would be considered such an enemy for stating FACTS

Starbucks' outrageous CEO-to-worker pay gap might make you spit out your morning coffee. And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?

Let’s talk about Lansdowne 2.0 — Ottawa’s plan to rebuild parts of Lansdowne Park with new towers, retail, and an arena. Sounds exciting, right? But here’s what’s actually in the deal 👇 #OttCity #Lansdowne2.No

Lansdowne 2.0 isn’t a done deal. City Council can still pause, review, and make a better plan — one that actually benefits residents and protects public space. #OttCity #Lansdowne #Lansdowne2.No

The City’s own auditor found the first Lansdowne deal didn’t bring in the promised economic benefits. Lansdowne 2.0 repeats the same model — only this time, it costs even more. #OttCity #Lansdowne #Lansdowne2.No

Here’s the kicker: the City plans to demolish the existing arena and north-side stands — buildings that are only about ten years old — and rebuild them. Financially and environmentally, that doesn’t add up. #OttCity #Lansdowne2.No

The “new” Lansdowne would also mean less public green space and more private development. What was supposed to be a park for everyone risks becoming another commercial complex. #OttCity #Lansdowne2.0

Lansdowne 2.0 would use hundreds of millions in public money to help a private developer rebuild the site. The City takes the debt and risk. The developer gets the profits. #OttCity #Lansdowne2.No

City staff say the project could cost over $500 million, all borrowed. That means higher city debt — and less funding available for things like housing, transit, and climate action. #OttCity #Lansdowne2.0

Didn’t think I was a rugby fan… but Canada’s women’s team changed that real quick 🔥 #2 in the world and just smoked the defending champs. This squad is making history. #GoCanada #WRWC2025 #WomenInRugby

Is it just me or is this wild? Instagram is using AI to force teens into “teen” accounts. Fine — but why not use the same tech to block adults who groom kids? Meta has the tools, just not using them evenly. www.iphoneincanada.ca/2025/09/22/i... #AI #Safety #Instagram #ProtectKids
