I spent the week in Minneapolis. About the only thing I’m sure of now is that more people are going to die. www.thestar.com/opinion/star...

most people, left and right, treat traffic violence like the weather and not a specific policy choice

I’m watching the World Series. I’m taking part o the Stanford prison experiment. I’m at the combination World Series/Stanford prison experiment

Incredible deputation at the budget committee wherein he references Avatar/James Cameron five times in three minutes www.youtube.com/live/JykDq6u...

I saw Olivia Chow wearing a neoprene mask (with breathing vents so you don't fog up your glasses when you bike in the winter), so I bought a neoprene mask

This video is for Doug Ford, and all those in my replies saying bike lanes "stop emergency vehicles from getting to their destination". They *allow* emergency vehicles to get to their destination, as seen here on Adelaide. They were designed with emergency services in mind.

As per @joelharden.bsky.social's newsletter. The province is retaining it's own contractors and plan to undertake first bike lane removals by the end of the year. Bloor St. in Etobicoke and a section of Yonge St. are the first in the crosshairs.

Hell yeah we are

I love how it looks like they're glittering 💖

Did some visualizing StatsCan's data around mode of transportation for commuting, because cyclists being only 1.9% of commuters in a city as big & diverse as Toronto is way too simplistic. www.datawrapper.de/_/xMPpK/

Someone should make Before Sunrise but on a VIA to romanticize intercity train travel for Canadians

Thinking of starting a bit wherein I praise Ford's $200 cheques to everyone as the beginnings of a Universal Basic Income

Don't know if this is the right read, but Bill 212 specifically talks about "bicycle lanes." Does this mean that it doesn't apply to multi-use trails? Can the City go around installing multi-use trails where it would've installed a bike lane without falling under the legislation's purview?

The goal should be to help US facilities move upstream towards higher-end, sometimes custom-made goods with quick turnarounds. Not raise the cost of their inputs, which will make them less competitive on the global market and possibly start a trade war.

Describe yourself using 5 things that are probably in your purse/backpack at any given moment: 1. Stojo collapsible coffee cup 2. Salonpas and ibuprofen 3. Burt's Bees lip balm (the one that's a dupe for Black Honey) 4. Allen key set for my bike 5. Clif bar

That one guy riding around in a circle changing hats is working REALLY hard

The supplementary report on Doug Ford's bike lane ban bill is now available. City staff say it could cost $48 million in provincial tax money to remove bike lanes. And city would lose out on $27 million invested to install the infrastructure. www.toronto.ca/legdocs/mmis... (PDF)
