Look at this City of Ottawa engagement process. People in face-to-face discussions. Working together to come up with real solutions.

Compare this to the charade that was the Lansdowne process.

Which approach do you think they use for the upcoming zoning bylaw consultations?

Do you love Active Parkways? If so, join the parade on May 11.

Ottawa housing peeps …

In the draft City Zoning Bylaw, have you seen examples of “junk zoning” — ie stuff that is unnecessary — but which ends up killing new housing projects?

Please share anything you’ve found. I’m delegating to Planning Committee on Monday on this topic.

Who else is bringing tunes?

PSA: it’s time to call and renegotiate your cell plan.

I dumped Rogers (because home internet was so bad).

Bell offered $40 (no contract, bundled) for 100Gb per cell line. $50 for 1.5Gb fibe home internet.

Rogers tried to get me back at $35 for 50Gb per cell line.

“Sutcliffe says he accepted Ottawa Tourism’s invitation to SportsPro Live before he knew it coincided with the April 21 London marathon.”

OK, then show us the ‘receipts’ and this goes away.

Sutcliffe: 'I don't see any conflict here or any need to speak to the integrity commissioner about it”

Do you think we should ask the Integrity Commissioner to investigate? cbc.ca/news/canada/ot…

What are Sutcliffe’s advisors telling him about his London marathon/junket?

1- “It’s a bad look”

2- “You can ride out the storm”

3- “It’s totally legit - you’re entitled”

And how long until Sutcliffe “clarifies” that he was “always planning to pay” for his part of the trip?
