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.
Ontario, your premier thinks like those States.
Red flag.

Well, the Liberals still need one more “yes” vote to avoid that (or two abstentions), making the vote that’s taking place in two hours a real nail-biter.
