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.

I knew it!! Cops speed and don’t follow the rules of the road.

Of course not, have you ever seen a cop use a turn sginal? I've spotted at least half a dozen using their dash mounted laptop to browse facebook while driving.

"Ontario City"... What a weird headline.

Isn't globalnews American owned?

They don't usually enforce speed restrictions, so I guess they're being fair about it.
