It’s hard enough for cities in Canada to do smarter things given how often bad city leaders hurt their own cities. But it’s extra infuriating watching awful provincial premiers sabotaging cities by ripping out good things they FINALLY managed to achieve. Premiers should not have that power, period.

Hot off the press! Mayoral candidates responses to Bike Ottawa’s questionnaire. The process behind our questionnaire, and how cycling has been turned into a toxic issue. Ready set go! 🚲 #ottcity #ottpoli bikeottawa.ca/2026/10/01/2...

No. That’s not a pickup truck parked in the bike lane against traffic (on a one-way street). Nobody would ever do that. @shawnmenard.bsky.social

How does a kidical mass ride happen? It starts with riding in the hood to figure out the safest route. Did you know that we try to avoid left turns as it would mean crossing traffic with kids? On Monday @kidicalmassottawa.bsky.social checked things out in Pineview. We’re ready to roll on July 11!

Disparaging on social media local organizations that are solely volunteer based and doing the best they can is not kosher. In fact, it can discourage people from volunteering. I’m sick and tired of this. #ottbike

I remember, when I was recovering from a knee injury, I found it very challenging to carry my bike up those steep stairs. I was afraid of re-injuring my knee. I got help crossing a few times. And that was just me - no trailer and kid to bring across the locks.

Some dude in their wisdom thought they were all powerful in their huge pickup truck and drove through the flooded road onto Petrie Island. Water was up to the bed at the back (tail pipe under water). ‼️
