Drivers hate this one weird trick: matching the big number on the sign to the one on your dash. Ford wants to ban school-zone cameras + fund “a million ways” later. Great! Build them now. Don’t switch off the only thing lowering speeds today.

🌈 BIG GAY RIDE — Sept 27, 2025 Join us for a slow, scenic, very queer fall ride from Guelph to Elora! 📍 Meet: 9:00 AM @ Riverside Park (by the pedestrian bridge) 🚴‍♀️ Roll out: 9:30 AM Destination: Bissell Park, Elora Community ride - open to everyone!

We have the entire neighborhood gearing up to demand change and they have started a petition. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

GCAT has been working on our "Better Streets" campaign for over a year now and we were looking at mobilizing nearby. I hope we can collectively aid this neighbourhood in any way we can. gcat.ca/betterstreets/

“Helsinki has not recorded a single traffic fatality in the past 12 months, city and police officials confirmed this week.” City engineer credits lower speed limits and smart design. I agree. #Helsinki #VisionZero

Turns out nothing motivates like a fine in the mail. According to Ottawa data, before #speedcameras were implemented: only 16% of drivers followed the speed limit! 🟥 Before cameras: 16% 🟧 After 3 months: 57% 🟨 After 1 year: 69% 🟩 After 3 years: 81% That’s not just a jump it's a shift in habits!

In Ontario, criminal vigilantism works and will influence gov't policy. Keep that in mind.

Friendly reminder. Road safety campaigns must speak directly to and target those that perpetrate the greatest harm.

Cycling tourism through the Greenbelt and along the Great Lakes has so much to offer Ontario’s economy, especially if we coordinate it with agri-food tourism. Fun fact: research shows that cycling tourists tend to spend twice as much in the local economy as non-cycling tourists.

My 5-year-old was happily biking ahead of us and stopped at a stop sign. We watched from 30 feet behind as an SUV sailed through their stop sign without stopping and without even slowing down or looking up. My son had the right of way. If he had gone - my heart can hardly bear thinking about it.

Lies. They’re called lies. Please call them that.

A cyclist was killed yesterday in Guelph. We’re grieving as a community but we’re also refusing to accept this as normal. I wrote about grief, community care, and what we do next to put our heartache,fear and anger into real change together. #VisionZero #Guelph #BicycleMayor #BYCS #SafeStreets

Doug Ford: what can I do to get more drivers on the road? -add lanes attracting more drivers -don't finish major transit projects, give no info on why -rip out bike lanes -send all civil servants back to work 5 days a week

Montreal is notably hillier, colder, and has higher bike share fees. The difference? Safe and connected bicycle infrastructure. #TorontoBikeShare #biximtl

Parking minimums are outdated for dense, 381-dwelling units. They lead to more congestion, pollution, and lower affordability. This condo is next to a bus route, bike lane, walkable distance to supermarkets, and has indoor bike storage. #cardependency #urbanism #endparkingmandates #parkingreform

The only thing better than a protected bike lane, is a protected bike lane with artworks by local artists! The new Lansdowne Avenue cycle track murals are looking good. Shoutout to Street Art Toronto, Cycle Toronto and the City of Toronto Cycling and Pedestrian Projects Unit.

"Wear a construction vest to be visible" No. It's absurd that this is even a thing let alone normalized. Should I put it on every time I step out of the car? Or just before I cross a large intersection? Do I need it for 4 way stops? What about walking across the street to see my neighbour? 1/

Niagara Police are looking for the driver of a white dodge ram pick up who hit, ran and killed a cyclist around 6pm on August 12, Welland Rd and Effingham St. Send them info if you got it! This shameless horrific act cannot stand: www.cp24.com/local/niagar...

Behind the scenes: I’ve had my life and safety threatened just for asking for safer school zones. People get angry when asked to change—even if it’s to protect children. They say kids should be more careful. They shift the responsibility onto those with the least power.

You love to see it. 📍Guelph City Hall #Guelph #Bikesky

Here's a good news story for #BikeTO! Bike Share Toronto sent an e-blast earlier today saying July was the first month ever where more than one million rides were taken! A long way from 2015 which only saw 700,000 rides for the full year. 🚲🥳 #TOpoli

Do you wish something like NYC's Summer Streets could be brought back to Toronto? Then please sign and share the petition urging @mayoroliviachow.ca & City Council to do so by 2026 as over 600 people have done! #BikeTO #WalkTO #ActiveTO #OpenStreetsTO #TOpoli tinyurl.com/openstreetsp...

In 2024, the Ontario government passed Bill 212: Reducing Gridlock, Saving You Time Act. It gave the province new authority to override cities on bike lane decisions and took a main focus on mandating removals on Bloor, Yonge, and University Ave in Toronto #Bill212 #TOpoli #UrbanPlanning

WE WON. Justice Schabas found that Ontario's law, Bill 212, violated section 7 of our charter rights. The court was impatient with the Ontario government having no evidence to back up its claims. #cycleto #toronto #bill212 #dofo

#Guelph appoints new Ward 6 councilor. "I take the city bus to work and walk home every day. I understand the realities of working families, renters, and those balancing financial responsibilities" @taaguelph.bsky.social we now have ONE councilor who takes the bus lol. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

I’m honoured to be Guelph’s new Bicycle Mayor! But here’s the truth: If I could easily afford to fund this work myself, I would. No hesitation. No ask. This is a volunteer role with an honourary title but it is powered entirely by the community with support, engagement and mutual aid.

Hot summer night bike rides in a city are amazing! The pavement is releasing the heat of the day, the air is cooling down. Families are out. Good times all around.

What a Bronze Bear Can Teach Us About Safer Streets In Guelph, Ontario, there’s a sculpture called the Begging Bear, a 7.5-foot bronze figure standing just off Gordon Street, a busy road that cuts straight through the heart of the city.

Let's give the #BicycleMayor of #Guelph a warm welcome to Bluesky! #bikeguelph #urbanism #bikesky

Video of motorists rolling stop signs in "car free" High Park taken mid day yesterday. I guess the police that ticketed cyclists at 10:30am yesterday were on a break... thanks @chinneroo.bsky.social for the vid! #HighParkMovementStrategy

Zero. That’s the number of kilometres of new bike lanes proposed by the City for this quarter of 2025. 1/

Look, we can't afford to install ACs in schools. Besides, it's the responsibility of those schools I defunded. Anyways, let's build a 5-storey, $400 million parking garage + 50 acres of parking space for a private luxury spa company at Ontario Place lol. #DougFord #onpoli #ontario #urbanhell

ICYMI: Ontario revealed plans for a five-storey, 3,500-space, $400 million parking garage at Ontario Place. Premier Doug Ford said it "will be blended into the surrounding area." "You'll barely even see a parking lot.” #onpoli www.thetrillium.ca/news/municip...

Seen on Paisley Road in #Guelph, Ontario. A bike lane ends abruptly and squeezes people onto a blind hill with no shoulder. Two schools and a church are within a couple hundred metres. #Urbanism #Graffiti #StreetArt #bikesky

www.guelphtoday.com/columns/mark... #Guelph #Transit

youtu.be/huwhNHIA6TE Electric buses are great for cities that already have quality transit. In #Guelph, more diesel buses are better for the environment so transit is more convenient, increasing ridership. A diesel bus with only 7/40 passengers has lower GHC than the avg. single occupancy car.
