Kids know best. Look at these bikes! Front basket, long-tail cargo bike or bike with a bucket out front to carry lots of people. Our politicians would do well to build cities for them.

Yesterday at a Hintonburg community event.

Moi… « qui reproche beaucoup beaucoup de choses à ce projet de loi » (60).

Beaucoup beaucoup est un euphémisme.

First ride on fresh snow. Weeee!

I’m here for a good time. And a long time. 🎵
Multi-use pathway covered in fresh snow. One can see a bike tire track and foot prints. The path is lit. To the left, the road. The path is protected by railing. Road at night covered in fresh snow. One can see car tire tracks and foot prints. Street light in the background and the Governor General’s property to the right.

The ON government will bypass committee hearings entirely on Bill 60. 😡

This gov. is:
➡️ putting people’s lives at risk
➡️ stripping cities of the power to make their streets safe for people outside cars

We can’t afford to remain silent. Voice your opposition now! 👇

Ontario government handcuffs cities, forcing them to prioritize cars over people’s lives.

Bill 60 provision XXI.1 effectively bans any new bike lane construction that would result in a reduction of lanes (read car lanes).

Voice your opinion against Bill 60. Call the Premier now: 647-0612-3673!

Doug Ford’s Ontario Govt plan to ban bike lanes “is ripped from the business lobby’s wish list…Ford’s war on bikes is more than a vendetta—it’s a gift to corporate lobbyists.”

It’ll make Ontario’s cities weaker, less competitive, more polluted, & more dangerous for everyone. AND the traffic worse.
