I was in Paris last week for the first time in 20 years. It's completely transformed to bike culture. It was all scooters 20 years ago. And they're raving about it.

“Paris has embarked on a grand transformation, planting 155k trees, adding hundreds of kms of bike lanes, pedestrianising 300 school streets and banning cars from the banks of the Seine. Parking has been turned into green space…Fewer parents fear their child being run over when they walk to school.”

Over the past 18 months, the feds have rolled back climate policy and gutted key pillars of Canada’s climate strategy, leading the litigants to argue that PM Carney’s government doesn’t have a plan to hit its 2030 climate targets. Indeed, its own reports reveal Canada is nowhere near on track.
