"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.

American corporation Staples is charging Ontario teachers more for resources than they charge the general public, this comes as the Ford Government has forced teachers to buy resources from Staples. We are paying more for students to get less. #ontario #onpoli #dougford #onted #frankdomenic🍁

Drivers get so mad when bike riders blow through traffic. IMO this is because people in $50,000 vehicles stuck in traffic watching a $100 bike blow past understand viscerally that they've been scammed. But they don't understand that it was by their car company, not the bike rider.
