That's sort of interesting. Maybe gives some insight into what they consider for future sites

Thanks I paraphrased it without your personal perspective. Figured it one of those things

Well then. It's on lockdown and it happened over lunch so students who were away can't go back but also weren't told of a safe place to go. And there's been no communication from the school

I think there are 2 separate situations depending on whether the bike lane ending turns to "single file" or not. And I'm not sure what it means for either

Attention #KidicalMassHfx! Take your kids to the Central Library on Saturday morning for a pop-up #BikeHfx engagement session about the Morris St. bike lanes. This is a family-friendly location & time, but the engagement activities will likely need your interpretation for kids' participation.

"No one is suggesting that you bike through White Juan while fighting polar bears with your u lock as you cross the Macdonald." I'm suggesting that, but... watch Kevin's video anyway. His content is great & if you're on the fence about winter cycling... this may be the nudge you need. #bikehfx

It looks like passing on the right w/o giving a metre is still permissible
Bicycle overtaking a vehicle
(1) A cyclist who is overtaking a vehicle on the left or driving past a vehicle stopped on 
the main travelled way on the left must keep at least 1 m between the bicycle and 
the vehicle.
(2) A cyclist travelling on the far-right side or the right-hand shoulder of a roadway 
may drive past a vehicle on the vehicle’s right only if it is safe to do so.

Ok, I didn't see the part about passing on the right. I guess the biggest change to passing would be no filter for a left turn

And they use highway for any type of road e.g." “alley” means a narrow highway intended mainly to give access to the rear of buildings and parcels of land"

“overtake”, while driving on a highway, means to go past or attempt to go past another slower moving vehicle or other conveyance that is travelling in the same direction;" No definition for undertaking

When I rode to the hospital today, I forgot my bike lock. Fortunately no thief noticed that the abandoned lock on the bike rack was not attached to the bike 😊. #bikehfx

"Establishing bike lane rules (e.g., a bike must yield to traffic when exiting a bike lane).   When overtaking a vehicle, a bicycle must maintain at least 1 metre distance. " If I'm reading this right this would make the painted lanes on north park useless

This is the slowest season for my illustration business, and I’m looking at the numbers for October and they’re…not great. If you have a project you need art for or want to commission me, it’d be massively felt in my household. IReposts appreciated, art tax below: callumisaac.art/portfolio/

If you want to help, don’t donate money to the guy sticking a camera in people’s faces, donate to an organization such as Adsum House, Bryony House, Hope Cottage, or the Mi’kmaw Native Friendship Centre, among others.

I'll switch routes on bad days and take the lane (rut) on a side street very slowly. Surprisingly I've never caught any rage from drivers for this.

I'm a fan of the Dollarama gloves when it's not too cold because it makes my signaling a bit more apparent when the days get shorter.

I think you'd see people looking for that position who would never show up for current municipal affairs. There are a lot of people whose cultural (municipal? geographical?) identity doesn't go past North End
