Yeah and the canals are of course not moving water uphill. Canadian agriculture consumes around 3000 million cubic meters of irrigated water (ie not including rain) per year compared to 150 million cubic meters of oil consumed and 270 million cubic meters of oil produced. Most of the oil is...

Tornado and hurricane season have been pretty quiet this year. Looks like the tornado season in the United States has been in the bottom 10% in terms of low activity. https://www.spc.noaa.gov/wcm/adj.html Normally we'd be at the peak of hurricane season right now, but still not much activity...

The trend of population loss in "mature" neighbourhoods, both in the cities, and in built out suburbs, appears to have been not limited to Toronto. Calgary and Edmonton had a similarly pronounced trend as well. However, this has been much less pronounced in Vancouver. Winnipeg, Montreal and...

As I said though, 6% increasing in housing units, 84% increase in population. Most of cottage country has seem population growth massively outpace housing unit growth, especially in the rural parts (small towns like Huntsville, Parry Sound, Bracebridge were more "normal"). That to me strongly...

FTR the census did record significantly higher population growth than in the previous census period in cottage country and the Maritimes. Many rural townships in cottage country saw their population increase by 15-30% whereas in the previous census periods the population was essentially flat...

At a glance, it looks like there's been a decrease in housing units in many areas without new construction (suggesting a reduction of accessory dwellings like basement apartments?), as well as increasing vacancy rates and decreasing household sizes.

It's not that crazy to me. I don't think Mississauga built that much new housing? Paired with declining household sizes - it's possible. I am surprised at the overall low population growth for the GTA though, and unexpectedly low growth in new condo neighbourhoods.

That was always true, however at the time the census was taken, there would have probably been a significantly larger proportion of students than usual living with their parents and studying online. The population decline is North Scarborough was significant, but so too was the decline in...

These are the off-street paths. Some are along the stormwater retention ponds (ex 3rd & 4th picture in the first post), others are through large parks/school yards, others are mid-block connectors through long blocks, and then there's also some larger paths along creeks and through woodlots...

Dr David R Williams Public School Houses with balconies overlooking Fowley Park Squire Parkette Ernest Appelbe Blvd condos

George Savage Park Shops along Carding Mill Trail Some new houses. Although these have front loaded parking, I think that having the house/porch pulled in front of it helps ensure the garages don't dominate the streetscape too much. Very small setbacks too, maybe not even 5 ft from the...

Although pretty much the entirety of the Preserve Drive shops are professional offices, dry cleaners and salon/spa businesses, George Savage Drive has a bit more variety, including a small Arabic grocery store that also carries a great variety of European chocolates, a small deli/butcher, a...
