Still no word from Mayor @_MarkSutcliffe on this shocking story - does he care about enforcing Ottawa's tree bylaw or does he not want to cause any discomfort for his developer buddies at Taggart?

You've been told by the corporate media that the status quo is as good as it's ever going to get. That you can only hope to tinker around the edges.

20 year ago today we lost Joe Strummer. I have never forgotten the moment that I put on the first Clash album.
Nothing was ever the same again.
Joe Strummer had passion, courage and a belief that three chords and an amp could make a better world.
Rock with the angels Joe.
