#Toronto and #Vancouver pass bylaws to block bars and resto watch parties and use of #FIFA brand.

No other branding in ‘exclusive zones’ around designated stadiums.

“Certain images, such as the World Cup trophy, mascots or any official FIFA or tournament emblems, are off limits.

He said acceptable messaging includes using country flags, the names of teams that are playing or saying World Cup instead of FIFA World Cup.”

Big thanks to @vanlug for hosting my talk on the #Fediverse!

If you’re in the #Vancouver area and are looking to dip your toe into #Linux, or you want to network with other Linux users, then @vanlug is a great welcoming community that’s incredibly inclusive.

On my way to @vanlug to deliver my talk in the #Fediverse.

I’ll be delivering my slide deck on my Lenovo Legion Go, which runs Bazzite Linux.

And the detachable controls are quite useful because one of them features a touchpad I can use to transition between slides. Which is very useful for presentations.

Hey #vancouver , it's almost time for the #JanesWalk festival and this year I'm leading a walk! It's called "What's Cool About Vancouver" and I'll be talking about stuff I notice about Vancouver as a transplant that makes it nicer to live here (and that might not be obvious if you grew up here or lived here for a long time.). (It won't be brightsiding- I'm here to talk about the problems too! But I hear a lot of locals talk about how Vancouver isn't a very inspiring city and I don't agree, so I want to talk about it.)

It's on Sunday May 3 at 10am and we're meeting at the concrete benches outside Science World, close to Terminal Ave. This walk will be about 1.km long (with a further 0.5km if you want to come hang with me at Small Victory in Yaletown after) and there will be no steps, suitable for people with mobility aids or strollers.

My walk blurb is at janeswalkvancouver.ca/2026-wal… and the festival has a lot of great walks this year, so consider coming on a walk with a neighbour!

(boosts welcome)
