In memoriam poster with black background and lit candles. Text reads: In Memoriam, Dr. Nouman Ali. The Halifax Cycling Coalition is deeply saddened to learn of the death of Dr. Nouman Ali, a member of Halifax's cycling community who was killed last week on Strawberry Hill Street when a driver opened their door into his path. Dr. Ali was a respected professor at Dalhousie University and, by all accounts, a generous and devoted member of his community. Our thoughts are with his family, friends, students, and everyone who is mourning his loss. Every person who rides a bike in this city deserves to get home safely. We extend our deepest condolences to all who knew and loved him.

Bike lanes are just an excuse. Our local democracy is under attack. With Fillmore's track record, he hasn't earned our trust to be given more power. Local Democracy works! Write the mayor, the premier, your councillor and MLA.

All the experts agree: bike lanes make roads safer for everyone, including drivers. And they reduce congestion. Why are Houston and Fillmore so out of touch with the facts?
