In my experience, every interview and article I've read in the @mtlgazette has been residents loathing or neutral about the Terrebonne bike path, and all from a very particular demographic (I'll let you guess which one)
Valérie Plante senses 'big gap' between media coverage and how residents actually feel about bike paths

Snarky answers to gender and ethnicity like "giraffe" and "turquoise" are not cute frankly should be considered a violation of the SIGPLAN Code of Conduct. Also who is this man speaking for queer women? Cut it out.

A follow-up audience comment was "I think it's really disappointing and disconcerting that you're focusing on minor ethical issues in computing like race and gender, but are ignoring major ones like plagiarism."

Guess what happens when you post a slide deck on racism and sexism in CS? Hundreds of CS faculty write you and say, “prove it”, as if racism and sexism can be counted or formally verified. My inbox has turned into an asynchronous class on epistemology.

Une canicule frappe le Québec. Humidex 43°C à Montréal, 38°C à Saguenay. Dans les CHSLD, la chaleur est insoutenable. Nous ne sommes pas en 2020, nous sommes à l'été 2002, et François Legault, ministre de la Santé, refuse d'installer des climatiseurs. ➡️ https://t.co/HUGaVylYKt
