I just realized the reason we have Jordan Peterson, Joe Rogan & the whole manosphere movement is b/c they're plugging the cultural hole that Red Green left behind.

If walking costs you $1, we all pay $0.01. If biking costs you $1, we all pay $0.08. If bussing costs you $1, we all pay $1.50. If driving costs you $1, we all pay $9.20. Via study that still underestimates climate cost. This isn’t about choice. It’s about who pays for your choice. #citymakingmath

I’ve definitely noticed a shift in my driving habits since I’ve been cycling more regularly. I’m more aware and more empathetic to those walking and biking.

My semi-regular reminder of a really important reality about cities, density, services and taxes. Any questions? Recently cleaned up by @kathrynmathias.bsky.social. #CityMakingMath

Just a reminder that in 2019, RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine misinformation campaign helped cause a measles outbreak in Samoa that killed 83 people, mostly kids. Do you really want him to lead the Department of Health and Human Services?

Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users. ALL ROAD USERS. And painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s actually safer to NOT have them. Via @usa.streetsblog.org @nyc.streetsblog.org

Separated Bike Lanes Means Safer Streets, Study Says — Streetsblog USA

Cities that build protected lanes for cyclists end up with safer roads for people on bikes and people in cars and on foot, a new study of 12 large metropolises revealed Wednesday.

Opposing overdose prevention centers/supervised consumption sites does not eliminate or even reduce drug use. It just eliminates or reduces safety. The alternative to safe use is not less drug use, it’s just unsafe drug use. Unsafe consumption sites exist all around you whether you know it or not.

Canada posts prices are unbeatable. If the whole system was private the businesses that use private shipping would jack up their prices or go out of business. Maybe instead of cutting Canada Post down we should be praising this subsidized service that allows small businesses to succeed.

Great post about why cities don’t need more parking in downtown areas. Regina has ample parking and yet its businesses aren’t thriving. Let’s make cities more pedestrian and cycling friendly. Let’s get people interested in exploring their communities.

Bike infrastructure is good economics on so many levels. People are healthier, the wear on roads is less, decreased parking infrastructure. The list goes on…

My 8 year old decided he wanted to go pick up litter in the neighbourhood. I took the dog and joined him on a walk. He was having a blast picking up garbage, while simultaneously muttering how upset he is that people litter🥹, until… He stepped into some tall grass and the dog peed on his leg. 🫤
