35 years ago, these 14 young women were murdered at the École Polytechnique de Montréal — because they were women.

We will not forget their names.

This video is for @fordnation, @PrabSarkaria and all others saying bike lanes "stop emerg. vehicles from getting to their destination". They *allow* emergency vehicles to get to their destination, as seen here on Adelaide. They were designed with emergency services in mind.
Us engineering students make weird art, but weird art still counts as art I think!

We are back with another great robot video. It's filled with fun robot and @queensu student cameos, and the entire two hour video was done in one take.

Thanks Scott for putting this article together. It was loads of fun chatting with you and Luke. Hope to do it again sometime!
I had a blast chatting with @scottsimmie and Luke Corbeth about my research and the importance of USVs in Canada. Thanks for having me!
I had the chance to talk robots, boats, and waves with @InDro_Robotics. It was a lot of fun to discuss why I think robo-boats (or ro-boats?) should be studied in Canada where we have so much water to protect and what I am doing in my PhD research.
You might not be aware, but InDro Robotics has also done research and development in the marine robotics sector. In fact, we’re still quite proud of the Talos Uncrewed Surface Vehicle we built and deployed years ago.

Ever wonder what robots REALLY get up to when left alone on Halloween?

At #UNGA, I called on Ghanaian Reggae artiste Rocky Dawuni's music and asked, "How many roads we had to walk, just to make it to the door only to be told we were too late?"
Time is short. Yes we've made progress. But we must act now to ensure we aren't too late to save tomorrow.

POLICE BRUTALITY: Animal Justice has filed a complaint against @OPP for striking an injured deer with the blunt end of an axe & leaving her to slowly die in agony 🦌💔
It’s illegal to cause animals unnecessary pain & suffering, & police are NOT above the law.
