Ottawa chatrooms:

Please note the following:

* All chatrooms are linked together. If you join one room your messages will be copied to the other platforms.

* Matrix is an open source and potentially distributed chat protocol. The matrix room listed is hosted on matrix.org, a somewhat centralized hub for a lot of currently public rooms. Though the protocol itself is free, libre and open source, the deployment of the protocol resembles a centralized service. This may be fixed in the future with the deployment of independent servers.

* Be aware that both Telegram and Discord are centralized proprietary platforms and do not necessarily protect your rights nor privacy while simultaneously giving power to corporations.

Cut our taxes! Don't make ugly utilitarian structures! Typical ignorant whinging.

I hope they mount a nice speed camera on it.

Good lord this article is embarrassing for the complainants.

At the breakneck pace bureaucracy usually takes I’m sure this thing meets code. As far as appearances go, however, it’s a real shame because the neighbourhood does look nice.

It's probably no worse than the crappy portables going up next.
