Downtown Peterborough, shot on my last roll of Lomochrome Turquoise, 400 ISO. I honestly don't know if I'll invest in this one more in the future to the extent of preordering and importing it, but it was neat!

Over the Canada Day long weekend, 19 Peterborough residents reported receiving flyers promoting anti-Jewish conspiracy theories and white supremacist propaganda, marking the third time in three months that such flyers were distributed to various neighbourhoods in the city.

“It's just not acceptable that our brothers and sisters in the Jewish community have been targeted for this kind of vile hatred,” said Peterborough Mayor Jeff Leal.

The mayor said the hateful conduct originated from the United States and the Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center, a Jewish advocacy organization, and others have specifically linked the flyers to the U.S.-based hate group Goyim Defense League (GDL). GDL is described as a “loose” network of individuals on the internet who stream antisemitic content and engage in stunts to harass Jewish people.

The latest tent encampment in Peterborough, Ont., had a short-lived stay after being removed on Thursday.

A day earlier there were about 10 tents pitched at Millennium Park in the city’s downtown. But by Thursday morning, bulldozers were on the scene removing the last of the belongings.

By 11 a.m. city staff and police had cleared the site.

A man identified as Ray told Global News videographer Robert Lothian that he and others living in the park didn’t deserve the abrupt exit. He says he has been experiencing homelessness for the past two and a half years.

“I was actually told by my one friend that they physically took his tent — took his stuff — you know what I mean,” he said. “They didn’t just tell him to move, they took it. I don’t think that’s proper. I think they should have given him a time limit and let him do his own thing.”

Extra London/Talbot Park photos using Lomography Redscale 200. We were getting pretty tired so I only dented the roll before we went back to my brother's place

That said, this is as much a travelogue as it is a photo blog so continuing on, here are some shots from the Oshawa Via/Go station. I'm not sure what caused this light leak, but I ain't mad at it

And finally, I ended up in Peterborough.

A city staff report recommends service cuts for Peterborough Transit that would impact weekend and statutory holiday schedules and the community bus service.

City council on Monday will review a staff report that recommends a number of service reductions. The recommendations come as a result of January’s approval of freezing the operating budget at the 2022 level of $18.2M — reducing the proposed 2023 operating budget by over $1.05M (5.8 cent), which staff said was required to meet rising costs of wages, fuel and vehicle maintenance.

An estimated reduction in revenue from ridership of $110,000 was approved, reducing the net savings to over $951,000. Staff warned a budget reduction would result in service and staff cuts.

The latest report estimates $794,800 could be saved (impacting an estimated 58,588 riders) by implementing these changes as of June 25 (except statutory holiday service which would be effective July 2): [List in article] [...]
