"Ripping out these protected bike lanes against the will of Toronto city council is a colossal waste of $48 million. The province’s own experts know it will not ease traffic congestion, it will put people’s lives at risk…” One of the stupidest things I’ve ever seen any politician do to any city.

Ontario will begin removing bike lanes from a stretch on Bloor Street W. in Etobicoke on Tuesday, the Ministry of Transportation says.

This BOPC survey is funny. Older people who benefited from the current systems of power trust the current system. People who have been abused by the current system don't trust it. I wonder why this is. Someone should investigate.

I was utterly confused at work seeing all the clothes i had on at some point and clothes in my backpack (and then managed to both overdress (feet) and underdress (upper body) for riding home) :-)

The party system would have to be destroyed first, though. And a lot of other society/power dynamics.

beg buttons for pedestrians that activate gates with large sharp pins that penetrate the front of said cars if they're not stopped at the stop line. that is all.

the Wanderers is something that works for the city, I hear a lot of the time, definitely not only from soccer fans. The proposed plan sounded pretty good to me (and way better than that Atlantic Schooners rip off back in the day). Does Fillmore really hate the city that much? Why is he here then?

Depends heavily on mental state and energy levels. Last Winter, I barely rode below 0. Most Winters, i go out at least once a week at -5, sometimes -10; exceptionally feel temp of -15. It’ll be my first Winter on studded tires, habits will probably change.

I’m actually happy the province walked back from the big roundabout on Micmac/Lancaster/Hwy 118/Woodland in Dartmouth; i simply couldn’t see a way that wouldn’t be a safety disaster walking/cycling

What bothers me about these discussions is that anti-bus carbrains assume they will like to take rail when built. Spoiler: they won’t. They’ll always keep preferring their oversized car and will keep complaining the city isn’t car centered enough.
