For many, large cities have become nearly unlivable. "They're crowded, they're expensive, it's difficult to get involved in the local community," said @Evan_Hock of @makemymoveusa, which connects remote workers with cities offering relocation incentives. bit.ly/3Exvnd9

Streets designed for the pace of pedestrians.
“Call them ‘woonerfs,’ [most aren’t] or ‘shared space,’ these are skinny streets where motor vehicles play second-fiddle to human-powered transportation... designed so that drivers feel comfortable only going very slow — 5 or 10 mph.” Via @cnupublicsquare

I agree! This especially impacts Indigenous communities. In Fort Chipewyan, there was a 30% rise in cancers from 1995 - 2006.

Covid has understandably impacted Canada’s government priorities. It is essential that in our post-covid recovery we treat environmental issues, specifically water access and quality, with up most importance. #WaterDebate #cgr4me2021 @MsWatCTA

Yes, this is definitely a great point. However, some ecological impacts are not being fully realized. All forestry obviously involves cutting down trees, and they are frequently replaced, but this has negative impacts on the environment #cgr4me2021 @MsWatCTA #forestrydebate
MsWGeography retweeted
Before jumping to conclusions about eliminating forestry, I urge you to ask yourself: what would Canada be like without the forestry sector?
Many would be unemployed, our economy would suffer, and there are environmental impacts to consider.#cgr4me2021 @MsWatCTA #ForestryDebate
