Politicians like Ford love TALKING about "affordability," but then undermine the most affordable options, including cycling + mass transit. #biketo www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

While certain resident associations have been actively campaigning against allowing neighbourhood retail in Toronto, it's unfortunate how we don't have any organized efforts in support aside from the petition @anotherglassbox.bsky.social started. #TOpoli www.torontotoday.ca/local/city-h...

This latest Not Just Bikes clip is an hour and a half cringe-a-thon about John Forester's discredited vehicular cycling rhetoric! It also mentioned how California considered protected intersections in the 1970's before Forester killed the idea. #BikeTO #BikeSky www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRPd...

How Toronto killed Sesame Street. My column on the retreat from allowing shops in neighbourhoods & other watering down of good ideas. www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

Hey #BikeTO! @cycletoronto.bsky.social will be hosting a Bill 60 protest ride this Thursday. Leave 8 AM at Bloor & Spadina. #TOpoli #ONpoli #VisionZero www.cycleto.ca/bill_60_prot...

Mayor Chow posted a video about corner stores!

Thanks for sharing the open streets petition, Nikhil! For those of you who haven't already done so, please join the almost 800 people who have signed so far and share widely! #BikeTO #WalkTO #ActiveTO #OpenStreetsTO #TOpoli

What a soulless idea from Bradford; calling for evicting encampments within 48 hours near schools! With Bad Badford being too polite to describe him, maybe we should start calling him Ass Assford? #shame #TOpoli www.torontotoday.ca/local/city-h...

100% this! I'm going to start calling those two-wheeled electric vehicles with throttles that don't require pedalling "e-motos" too. Hopefully we can shift the narrative => e-bikes are NOT a problem in Toronto's bike lanes, e-motos are the problem. #BikeTO #bikesky

Dear #BikeTO in case you need a reason to smile 😊 this morning...a friend saw this in a Toronto neighbourhood 🚲 💕 cc. @cycletoronto.bsky.social

Just blocked B'nai B'rith's Bluesky account over this Zionist group's continued denial of the fact that genocide is being committed in Gaza & encourage others to block them too. Mayor Olivia Chow's recent remarks about Gaza are based on international experts & must be encouraged. #TOpoli #cdnpoli

Today the Ford government voted to and debate and skip public hearings on #Bill33. It’s not law yet. Call and email and tell Ford and your MPP to Withdraw Bill 33!! #onted #onpoli

A month ago, Ontario’s Auditor General told Doug Ford’s government to create a public, accountable climate plan with emissions-reduction targets — as courts have also ordered. Today, the government’s fall economic statement eliminates all legal obligation to do so. #onpoli

Given yesterday's announcement that Bill 60 will skip the committee stage, my latest blog post discusses the bill and some ways to respond including calling for a provincial trails plan. #BikeTO #TOpoli #ONpoli #VisionZero www.twowheeledpolitics.ca/2025/11/more...

For Progress Toronto: - Open Streets - Streetcars that work - A coffee shop on every corner I don’t think it’s about universal appeal, we have a lot of carservatives, but they weren’t going to vote for Olivia Chow anyways.

Gotta love this 🙆‍♀️ Two female City Mayors honouring their World Series bet..🚴‍♀️ #OliviaChow #Toronto #KarenBass #LA

Ford's instincts are anti-democratic. We've seen it again and again but voters have not understood -- or maybe not cared enough to stop him. #OnPoli

Per today's Queen's Park agenda, the Ford government will skip the committee stage for Bill 60 which will ban removing motor vehicle lanes for bike lanes or any other prescribed purpose. Just as they have done with speed cameras. #shame #BikeTO #TOpoli #ONpoli #VisionZero www.ola.org/en/legislati...

A public consultation for the Peanut Streets Plan is happening TONIGHT (6-8 PM) at Georges Vanier Secondary School (3000 Don Mills Road East). If you can't make it, you can submit your feedback until Wednesday, November 19. #BikeTO #WalkTO #TOpoli #VisionZero www.toronto.ca/community-pe...

I wrote an op-ed on what I think about the fight for local neighbourhood retail (and the grousing about Badiali's) means for the urban vision of Toronto. Gift link here: www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

On the weekend, I penned a Letter to the Editor of the Hamilton Spectator, which made it into today’s issue of the paper. I address the juxtaposition of the policies of the Progressive Conservative government and conservative values. #onpoli #safestreets #speedcameras #lettertotheeditor

Chris d'Entremont crossed the floor to the Liberals. His official statement: "...all Canadians know that the moment we face today needs all of us to lead - not with complaint, but with confidence in a strong future." #cdnpoli #NeverConservatives

SAVE THE DATE! @ffsafestreets.bsky.social will be hosting the World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims on Sunday, November 16 at 4:30 PM. Details to come. #BikeTO #WalkTO #TOpoli #VisionZero www.facebook.com/events/13768...

Big opportunity to improve road safety in Oakwood Vaughan in #toronto. Proposed improvements include separated bikeway on Vaughan, new pedestrian crossings, curb extensions & crosswalk realignments. Show support, take the survey: www.toronto.ca/community-pe... #topoli #visionzero #biketo #walkto

I stand with Mayor Olivia Chow. There is clear evidence to support the claim that the State of Israel has and is committing genocide in Gaza. Denial of that claim is wilful blindness. #abpol #Cdnpoli www.un.org/unispal/wp-c...

Over 700 people have signed the petition calling on Mayor Olivia Chow & City Council to bring back #OpenStreetsTO & #ActiveTO by 2026. Please sign (if you haven't already) and spread the word. If you can share on other socials, even better. #BikeTO #WalkTO #TOpoli actionnetwork.org/petitions/ma...

I’m so tired of Doug Ford being the Mayor of Toronto. 🤦🏽‍♂️ Apparently he forgets that he’s supposed to run the Province of Ontario. Can’t even elect him out, because the other parties, voters can’t get their shit together. 😔 #ONpoli #TOpoli

The Toronto Star published my letter which calls out how the speed camera ban - along with Bill 60 - would kill any possibility of redesigning Parkside Drive despite repeated calls from residents to make the street safer. #BikeTO #WalkTO #TOpoli #ONpoli #VisionZero www.thestar.com/opinion/lett...

After TO Council passed a motion indicating the City was open to Alternative Solution Proposals for a single stair in apts up to 4 storeys, I applied for a single stair in a 3 storey Part 9 6plex. I’m told it’s the first one, so it’s a test case. Here’s how it’s going. #singlestair #sixplex

The latest column by @graphicmatt.com highlights the need for Toronto to apply the lessons learned from accelerating the Gardiner Expressway construction to other projects. Especially transit ones like the Eglinton Crosstown. #TTC #TOpoli #ONpoli www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

Disappointed with Montréal's election result last night. I hope their residents organize like never before to keep the bike lanes while we Toronto residents need to ensure Mayor Chow gets re-elected next year. Can't afford to have Backstabber Brad get in. #BikeTO #VeloMTL #TOpoli #polmtl #VisionZero

Dr. Carrie Mitchell of @uwaterloo.ca was recently featured on @biketalk.bsky.social discussing the Ford government's ban on speed cameras and bike lanes. Worth a listen. #BikeTO #BikeSky #TOpoli #ONpoli #VisionZero

Thank you Blue Jays for an incredible season! Disappointed we didn't get the World Series this time around, but they gave it their all. 🇨🇦⚾🐦 #WorldSeries

Thanks @ohtheurbanity.bsky.social for not only encouraging Montréal residents to go vote on Sunday in their latest clip, but also highlighting how low cost cycling infrastructure is compared to other road and capital works projects. #BikeTO #BikeSky #VeloMTL #TOpoli #polmtl #VisionZero

shorturl.at/lx4YU Young people have to get out the vote. People like this will pull the ladder up from behind them, inflate the value of their homes, micromanage their neighbourhoods, & limit the economic opportunities of the middle & working class. #topoli

One thing missing from this article about the lack of safety measures after speed cameras get removed is how Bill 60 will ban removing vehicle lanes to install bike lanes which effectively kills the Parkside redesign! #shame #BikeTO #WalkTO #TOpoli #ONpoli #VisionZero www.thestar.com/news/gta/dou...

Whether you're calling for open streets, #BikeTO lanes, #TTC funding, housing, or something else, today is the deadline to complete the 2026 Toronto pre-budget survey! #TOpoli #BudgetTO ca.mar.medallia.com/BudgetTO2026

And today, the bill banning speed cameras passed, avoiding public consultations in the process to make it happen. One less tool municipalities have for making streets safer for everyone. seanmarshall.ca/2025/10/29/s...

The government plans to raise the annual donation limit from $3,400 to $5,000…Attorney General Doug Downey says the move modernizes Ontario’s political finance system, but critics say it gives an edge to parties with deep-pocketed donors, such is the case of Ford’s Progressive Conservatives. #OnPoli

What a bunch of cowards the Planning and Housing Committee members are; giving in to NIMBY pressure by watering down the neighbourhood retail motion! This decision represents a missed opportunity to revitalize neighbourhoods! #shame #TOpoli www.torontotoday.ca/local/city-h...

Very enlightening read about the LRT #torpoli #onpoli seems like a typical case of too many cooks in the kitchen 🤷🏼‍♀️

This is not good. Today's legislative session at Queen's Park could see Third Reading for Bill 56 - which calls for a ban on speed cameras - happen today. Hope some lawyers got recruited to fight this awful bill ASAP! #shame #BikeTO #WalkTO #TOpoli #ONpoli #VisionZero www.ola.org/en/legislati...

I’m sick of sharing this link so help me bury the NIMBY opposition to cute neighbourhood shops! They just put a petition with a measly 209 signatures into the record to kill—not modify, kill—this small step towards maybe having corner stores again Let’s tell them what we want: c.org/fYSGWfvYJv

Neighbourhood retail will be at Planning and Housing Committee on Thursday. Much of Toronto's traditional retail + residential is being considered for heritage protection. Why is it valued and how could we do more of it? Our letter: www.toronto.ca/legdocs/mmis...

A motion to allow neighbourhood retail (PH25.3) is headed to the Planning & Housing Committee tomorrow. Please take a few minutes to e-mail [email protected] TODAY - as well as CC Mayor Chow and your councillor - to support this motion despite NIMBY pressure. #TOpoli secure.toronto.ca/council/agen...

The Lower Don Trail has seen so many delays it has caused frustration for trail users and prompted @dmrider.bsky.social to write this piece in @thestar.com. Now it's not expected to reopen until Spring 2026. #BikeTO #WalkTO #TOpoli www.thestar.com/news/gta/the...

They know this is going to harm children. #OnPoli

This is bonkers how even after extensive public consultation, the Beaconsfield Village RA (and others) are still opposed to neighbourhood retail. City council needs to ignore those NIMBY's and approve this item when it gets debated later this year. #shame #TOpoli www.thestar.com/business/tor...
