Managed to score two of the three things we wanted. It's a lot clearer and cleaner than it was four years ago, but no less frantic and frustrating.14 Aug 2026 01:10 +0000at://did:plc:3clpia27wco26refewyocdvb/app.bsky.feed.post/3msyxyowy6c2fhttps://bsky.app/profile/brandonbay.ca/post/3m5cfyvyafk2jThere are still some tickets available for the event this week with Bruce and Stephen!

Remote work helps businesses thrive in the places people live, accommodates the different needs of all employees, and broadens talent pools. Dragging knowledge workers back into the office to "save downtown" is bad policy that hurts workers and communities. It needs to stop.

A well-argued piece on Doug Ford's efforts to make yet another crisis worse. https://driving.ca/column/lorraine/gta-traffic-congestion-crisis-premier-ford26 Aug 2025 12:52 +0000at://did:plc:3clpia27wco26refewyocdvb/app.bsky.feed.post/3lxckmaoip227https://bsky.app/profile/brandonbay.ca/post/3lp5p3pybss2dUnequivocally, housing prices are too high and must go down. Here in Ottawa, if we choose to "make sure the market is stable" and hold housing prices flat, it would take 17 years to even see 2016's prices again. We wouldn't see 2002's fairly-reasonable prices until 2061.

Faced with the choice between compassion and contempt, between kindness and arrogance, between someone in it for us and someone in it for themselves, the people of Carleton chose well.29 Apr 2025 12:36 +0000at://did:plc:3clpia27wco26refewyocdvb/app.bsky.feed.post/3lnxcaahgwc2dhttps://bsky.app/profile/brandonbay.ca/post/3ljakyii37b2wCarleton, I can’t thank you enough for your support.
