Great idea from Canada

So here I was (this morning) watching a vlog by the famous Canadian vlogger Johny Strides. This time he was vlogging about the Do West Fest festival and he showed it on the camera, so 19 minutes into that walk I saw something I had not seen before. It might make for a good setting for Australia, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia to name only three. I think this could be a massive hit with these three and I have no ever seen this. Not on any walkthrough. 

So consider the Formula one races in Abu Dhabi in December and Boulevard Riyadh City & Boulevard World in Riyadh. We can tell people to take of themselves, or we could set 2 of these trailers at the beginning and end of these locations. Each of these trailers have 10 bottle fillers (5 per side) and 10 taps for water (also 5 per side), the information can be found (at https://www.toronto.ca/services-payments/water-environment/tap-water-in-toronto/request-an-hto-to-go-water-trailer/) where we see that these are managed by the city of Toronto, with the following settings:

  • stainless steel troughs on each side
  • 10 drinking water taps (five on each side)
  • 10 taps to fill water bottles (five on each side)
  • step stools and cups, if needed
  • water bowls for pets
  • information booth featuring Toronto Water programs and services

Now, not all these items might have appeared for the intended city council, but the idea is great and I think that both the UAE and Saudi Arabia could set this up making their tourism more and more appealing. The idea that a person could find a rehydration point that is free (I know that Dubai has many all over the city) but to add 1-2 of these trailers at events, might be the ticket for more tourists for them and it might take another turn for the businesses that might want to show their appeal, without having to go several rounds of drink stands. I have nothing against those stands, but to offer another setting is always good. So, Johnny Strides video was (at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xoNajkErOgc) which should be a nice look at a festival in Toronto and his videos are always a good view on Toronto.

No matter how you slice it, Toronto (I am assuming it was their idea) has something more to offer the world and I reckon that several nations might be interested in this. 

Have a great day. I am off to see the F1 races in Monaco, I can already here the roar of the engines. Yay to YouTube for this.
