    Alberta Politics

    To quote Family Guy, "Keep it up snackpack!" With enough foot in mouth moments the UCP will undo their own successes! Can't wait for the next round of hateful gaffes! They are always popcorn meme worthy, TBH!

    The $150K guarantees you buy your election win... GROSS but typical for that neo-con dumpsterfire!

    Edmonton International Airport (EIA/YEG)

    I also forgot how large the range of the Dreamliner really is which is why I hope Westjet launches at least one flight from Edmonton to one of the large global air hubs halfway around the world... Preferably DXB but beggars can't be choosers... And one benefit of being this far north? You're...

    One of the Top 5 Urban Planning YouTuber's out there... Prove me wrong. Not gonna lie a lot of my free time is spent on YouTube watching urban planning videos. Then again I assume most of us here do too!

    Warehouse District Park

    A mixed bag I think. I love the water feature and still think The Quarters needs to go back and add it back into that corner of Jasper Ave in front of the hotel... The Washroom just to clarify won't be near the Big Lawn but near the fountain W of 107 street ROW? Is that right? And does anyone...

    Edmonton music concerts

    Actually I have a weird pavlovian response to that song now. The only time I crave crappy American pisswater is when that song starts so... Thanks? ;-)

    Edmonton music concerts

    Folk Fest NEVER disappoints. That is one bellweather this city can always look to. Too bad I'm not a huge fan of the genre so it doesn't mean much to me... Ditto with country. Having Garth Brooks play a double-header at Commonwealth next weekend may sound like fun for some people. But for those...

    Rossdale

    And to maintain and consider reviving all the old streetcar lines/rail corridors that served Rossdale in the past since no matter how you slice it, streetcars will always trump buses when it comes to comfort and efficiency... Smooth vs bumpy. A reliable traffic pattern a city can plan around vs...

    Bingo! Good catch there! I filled out the survey and it's quite and extensive one if you feel so inclined since it's basically just a comment form. Which is great! The only feedback I had was basically I love all the boulevard trees and canopies planned because that's what all the best parts of...

    ICE District

    Who ever was responsible for planning that one? Tip of the hat to you!!! Now if we can just get some free pop music concerts too! Or even if we had live streaming concerts from the plaza to the world via the internet! That would be vital in promoting ICE as a global cultural hub... No joke!

    ICE District

    A Wayne's World outdoor dine and view party on the plaza? "WE"RE NOT WORTHY!" THat's a slam dunk style of event I want to see repeated weekly for eternity! That's the kind of magnet programming that will draw someone in from 2 hours away, btw. I split my time between "the hills" and town now and...

    Yes to everything mentioned here. Nailed it! The only thing missing is the community heart. That SHOULD be an LRT/streetcar plaza on that Edmonton, Yukon Pacific Railway ROW that slices diagonally through that one lot between 104/105 St just south of 97 Ave... That needs to be the first thing...

    Edmonton International Airport (EIA/YEG)

    On a related note, Norse Atlantic just relaunched. That's the long-haul offshoot of the up and coming Norwegian Airlines that was hit super hard by Scandinavian COVID outbreaks and cross-Atlantic tourism however it's backed and well financed so I have a feeling this would make an ideal flight...

    Edmonton International Airport (EIA/YEG)

    BTW, these are all flights within the range of the A220-100 (Bombardier C-series) which is 6200 km which means these could be really skinny but popular routes with only 100-130 seats which to me is perfect for a market like Edmonton where even 189 seats in a Boeing 737-800 seems a bit excessive...
