Will Bill 60 survive a challenge? I doubt it. So do those lanes anyway, especially O’Connor.
…ofc Sutcliffe wouldn’t dare; he’s got fucking placeholder figures in the budget that he needs other levels of government to fill so he’d never dream about antagonizing Ford.

Hate to tell you, but more bus cops don't increase reliability, increase the number of busses on the roads, shorten wait times…

It’s wild to me that they still don’t see it.
The boycott of the US (travel, goods, etc) is essentially a grassroots effort that’s had its own momentum since Day 1. It takes a major change of circumstance and mood to get the population of one country to change their habits overnight.

Sure, but a better way to prevent further structural damage would be to actually fix the fucking building.
It's been like this for 4 months. Enough is enough.

I live nerby; that scaffold only went up a week or two ago.
Have they even done any work under there? Or did they put the scaffold up to pretend that work was up and running in an effort to fake compliance with a permit?

Heads up: there's going to be a Convoy-adjacent group that have a weird concern for ostriches slithering downtown from the west end today around 11 am.
City Hall/Elgin @ Laurier is not part of their route into downtown, but still - keep your heads on a swivel.

The POW/Preston/Carling… thing is an absolute shitshow. Everyone for themselves, zero consideration for others, lanes and lines on the road mean sweet fuck all.
I walked it yesterday and was on high alert the whole time; as a pedestrian it felt legitimately dangerous.

“Make transit users walk even farther” is quite the take from a co-president of a community association. Do any of those businesses even have back doors?
