Day #93 (Sat.) morning gardens walk 🌺 Started The Coast election survey, a doozy! Painted a bit of the Larch/Jennings street art & had a great chat with a poli sci student. Canvassed on Oxford then attended Lancers BBQ & gear sale. My friend on D8/D9 border says I will be his councillor 😆.

Have you considered what this would do to our vehicular level of service numbers?

“Halifax has been prioritizing wider paved roads and new parking lots over trees and vegetation, intensifying the heat island effect” Absolutely. This has to stop, now, but I don’t hear council candidates discussing it.

Halifax is among a number of Canadian cities experiencing hotter weather than its outlying areas due to what's called the "heat island" effect, said Prof. Christine Macy. #NovaScotiawww.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

My cartoon for Guardian Books’ autumn reading special.

A beautiful, smiling pile of new books labelled "New Books for Autumn" innocently attracts the attentions of a young man. Beside him, his pile of books (labelled "Unfinished Summer Reading") notices this and scowls at him.

The image is a cartoon pastiche of the ‘distracted boyfriend’ meme.
