When cities are built with women in mind, they become more liveable for everyone.
A fairer planning approach that promotes a universal right to access the city, and considers every aspect of human life, from infancy to elderly; not just those in the so-called productive stage.

All Hamiltonians deserve to know where the sticky soot substance is coming from and what it contains. No one, in any postal code, in our city should be expected to endure out-of-date provincial standards, avoid going outside, or experience ill health as a result.
Filthy coating on cars. Soot smeared clothes. 'Gross' residue on skin. Hamilton to look for source of lower-city grime
