A bad day for Canada, and therefore the world.
Ontario (population 16 million, 40% of the country) has passed new legislation prohibiting bike lanes that take a lane from cars.
An escalation from Bill 212, which required municipalities to get approval.

Maybe everyone at the Atlantic will get bird flu for putting this guy and the word science on the cover

Texas & Florida have passed laws essentially making it illegal for cities to create car-free spaces like bike lanes or pedestrian plazas.
That’s stupid/shortsighted, & will make their states more dangerous & less economically competitive.
