As the camera pans from the podium to an empty field, a tumbleweed rolls through the foreground.
Welcome to like at least 3 years in the past, Waterloo, when this should’ve been concluded.
They should quit July 4th but stopping is stopping.
This city is actually in Canada, and July 4th isn’t important here. July 1st is, though, but it seems they wanted to close out the week I guess and change policy on a Monday?
Great news even if way late, and I’m happy for them, but wtf is this “article”? One sentence reinforcing the headline plus a screenshot with no further info or elaboration? Really hoping my adblocker has just blanked the remainder of the article and the author actually quotes the city hall at some point, elaborates on twitter being a Nazi bar for those who live under a rock, and mentions where the city hall has chosen to post instead.
Not a stub article, there’s a paywall that your adblocker must not like. Here’s a link to an archived page:
As far as where theyve chosen to post instead (from the article):
Starting July 6, City of Waterloo announcements will be communicated on municipal websites and other social media already used by city hall such as Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube and Vimeo.
City hall will maintain an X account but only to direct people elsewhere, Abbott said.
[…]
The city does not plan at this time to communicate on alternate platforms that have been established as alternatives to X.
Great news even if way late
Welcome to Kitchener/Cambridge-Waterloo, you just summed up the region fairly well.
For pretty much being the tech hub of Ontario if not Canada they generally are pretty late to the game on various things. I blame Cambrdige though, the Heroin capital of Ontario if not Canada and I grew up there.
It’s such a god damn polarizing part of our country.
