This is legal since it's well after 7pm, but shows why we need our bus lanes to all be 24 hours.

if you have any footage of any CTRail trains (SLE/HL) please send them my way if you're fine with that. I'm trying to make a video on ctrail and i don’t tend to go that way often, so im rather short on it.

We went by the brand new Confederation GO Station in Hamilton today.

Bus service started in 2019, now train service has finally arrived as well.

Will you venture to the new Confederation GO Station soon?

did you know that montreal once had the first fully automated metro in north america? the expo express was built for the world fair in 1967 and was in service until the 70s. today, you can still see an abandoned bridge that it used to run on.

almost every single time i bike on the de maisonneuve bike path in downtown montreal, i see a near miss involving a delivery driver on one of these mopeds.

Perhaps one of the most urgent urbanism policies we can implement is to ban mopeds from bike lanes — in particular the kind with fake pedals (see image).

They literally endanger cyclists — which are what these bikes lanes are meant for.

Mopeds should have moped lanes. Not bike lanes.

Voilà pourquoi j'ai choisi Luc Rabouin à la mairie de Montréal.

C'est une question d'équité territoriale : que l'ensemble du territoire soit aussi choyé que le Plateau l'a été ces dernières années.

Dimanche, on vote en grand nombre pour le progrès (vote par anticipation)!

Montreal is underrated for its residential pedestrian plazas. More of these. Everywhere.
