I spent a lot of time on a recent train trip from #Vancouver to #Toronto on railway sidings, waiting for a slow-moving freight train to pass.
In the US, Amtrak trains have legal precedence over freight trains.
That's not the case in #Canada, where VIA Rail plays second fiddle to Class One freights like CPKC.
Does it have to be this way? I take a look in the latest HIGH SPEED dispatch:
Le français suit dans les commentaires.
On June 13 I am going to walk at Relay for Life organized by Canadian Cancer Society all over the country.
I will do the Laf of Hope being a survivor and a career of a rare genetic mutation putting me at risk of different cancers. *The event is located at St. Peter Catholic High School, OrlĂŠans, Ottawa.
I'm fundraising to prove that together, we can change the future of cancer forever. I know money is tight for a lot of us, if you can only boost it is perfect. â¤ď¸

Spend three days capturing the beauty of autumn on Vancouver Island and its amazing wildlife. Small group of three for a better experience and lesser impact on the environment.
Let me show you some of my favourite places for nature photography on Vancouver Island.

https://jmb.mx/blog/2026/03/02/looking-for-james-mast/
Iâm making this post because I donât what else to do.
Iâm looking for James Mast, a son of Moses Mast (my dear friend and mentor who recently passed away). If you are James or you know how to get in touch with him, please contact me (jmb.mx/contact) , as I want to make sure James can attend the memorial service (even if it has to be remote) but also for some other important issues.
FYI, James was last known to be in Cornwall, Ontario (see https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/sixties-scoop-immigration-1.7541323 ) , but I havenât had any luck tracking him down.

Things I wish I had known about living with #disability & #poverty in #Canada and you should know too.
1. Get your provincial disability coverage. Keep fighting after refusals until it goes to tribunal if necessary. Donât let denials make you think itâs over. Donât let the system which is purposefully and cruelly difficult get you downâŚthere may be free legal supports for you that really helpâŚ

If enough Canadians contact
their local representatives, as well Mark Carney's office this week, we might be spared from this authoritarian mass-surveillance measure called "Age Verification" in Canada.
The time to fight back is NOW: https://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/article/social-media-ban-for-kids-under-consideration-in-online-harms-bill-carney/
Privacy is a human right essential to safety and democracy. If we do not fight to protect it, we will lose it.
