"d’identifier des menaces potentielles telles que le flânage" what?! C'est un parc!

The goal of the BIKE safety operation is to protect "the motoring public"?!? I was not ready for this level of dystopia.

Beware: Biased trade war coverage from American owned news media!
Postmedia ownership:
NATIONAL: POST
OTTAWA A CITIZEN
CALGARY SAL HERALD TORONTO SUN
EDMONTON JOURNAL
THE VANCOUVER SUN
The Gazette
The Province
Thanks to the Harper Conservatives in 2007, much of our media in Canada is now owned by USA companies.
Canadians take note: when you are reading these publications, you are reading the perspective of American billionaires, NOT your fellow Canadians.
We need to strengthen Canadian Media, now more than ever!

J'entends les parents qui disent que l'adversité fait partie de l'apprentissage, mais je m'occupe d'un écolier à mobilité réduite, et j'ai l'impression qu'il a carrément été oublié. Aucun plan pour accommodement. Bonne chance pour aller à l'école en chaise roulante.

“In Seoul, the restored waterway has been a triumph. It doesn’t just provide a peaceful refuge from the city’s busy streets, it serves as a cultural corridor with year-round festivals and performances, while helping cool the surrounding neighbourhoods, fighting air pollution…”

I heard of a city that does the same, but alternates each year which side is cleared, but I don't remember where it was.

Before living in Montreal, I thought it was the norm. At least Saguenay does this too, on streets that are deemed less important. They usually clear the North and West sidewalks if I remember correctly. But yeah, I used to have to walk on the street a lot...

not that the already pretty limited bike infrastructure should accommodate everybody. And yes, it's absolutely a pet peeve of mine, as there are entire RUNNING CLUBS with 20+ members doing this.

as it's way too often icy or badly plowed (in my neighborhood, since cars are partly blocking the sidewalk), uneven, in bad shape and let's be honest: interrupted by driveway entries way too often. I get their point, but that means the sidewalk should be improved 2/

I know a lot of runners who do this unfortunately. They say they go counter-flow to be able to see bikes coming so they can move out of the way. But yeah, it's a real issue. I tried to get the ones I know to stop doing it, but they usually justify it by talking about the sidewalk state 1/

Last time I talked to someone at the STM, I was told they study which line to put them on as to not cause delay on the bus line. But yeah, that's kind of sad, since the 121 is usually stuck in traffic everywhere there's no reserved lane, I'm not sure the bike rack would be the cause of delays...

The only time I tried to use one, it was broken on the first bus, waited for the next one, and the bus driver refused to let me use it because it took me more than 20 seconds to try and secure my bike. Locked my bike there and took the third bus. Arrived 1h late. Never tried again.

There's one exactly like that where I live. It even has a ramp to the highway crossing the bike path, without any kind of protection or even signalisation. I'm scared just thinking about it.

I really enjoy the format! If you're open to feedback, I would suggest lowering the music volume a little and/or having the subtitles stay longer on the screen to make it easier to understand (but maybe it's more about the quality of my headphones... 🎧)

serait vraiment plus adaptée, comme c'est un problème récurrent. Même d'amener le problème devant le conseil d'arrondissement n'a eu aucun impact. 2/2

C'est déjà fait, plusieurs fois, et je continue de le faire. Par contre, l'escouade mobilité ne donne que des tickets à quelques véhicules dont il faut donner les plaques une par une, et le déneigement n'est jamais refait. Je continue de faire des signalements, mais une solution plus permanente 1/

En 2024, l'idée qu'il n'est pas nécessaire que 100% de l'infrastructure routière soit accessible aux voitures en tout temps est encore extrême, apparemment.

And I would not be surprised if it worked to some extent. I know I, for one, would not take my bike downtown if there was no protected infrastructure. I just don't have the skill and confidence to be doing it comfortably, and prefer getting to work without fearing for my life...

Vu leur problème évident de vision, c'est inquiétant de penser que ces gens conduisent des véhicules et côtoient des usagers plus vulnérables 😭

J'habite dans un quartier où beaucoup de trottoirs ne sont pas déneigés, parce que les voitures des entrées privées dépassent sur le trottoir. Ces mêmes automobilistes ont l'audace d'utiliser exactement ce discours alors qu'il n'y a qu'UNE piste cyclable déneigée dans le quartier.

You’re not violating a reading rule if you opt not to finish a book that's not resonating with you. Life is finite and we thus have a finite number of books to read. Reading shouldn’t be a chore. You needn’t feel guilty for ensuring that your time reading is spent reading things that you love.

"The authors suggest that such research is important because paranormal belief can influence people’s everyday behavior and attitudes, such as those regarding alternative medicine, antivaccination, and conspiracies." To be fair, I'd be curious to compare the proportion of antivaxxers between 1/

I'm a fan of him telling people to use their real name though, made it much easier for me when I dealt with harassment on Twitter with people who did that.
