LOL Doug Ford so concerned about congestion his government wants to remove 900 metres of bike lanes, out of 22 kilometres. These sections have low cyclist traffic so far being so far out of the core, and removing tiny sections will have minimal effects on car traffic.

Ever with his eyes on the ball, that one.

If you live in #Guelph or the surrounding region, then DM me your photos of bike blockers! Please be lenient if it looks like an emergency.

Had a fun morning bike ride at #KidicalMass in High Park!

Also looking forward to having a way to pull or carry my kid's bike to have them ride themselves rather than be in the bike seat. Planning a #FollowMe tandem next spring 🤞

Thanks #CycleTO for organizing! (Please get on fedi!)

I guess I better stop encouraging my child to walk home from school, if this is the plan.

Doug Ford every. damn. time.

Who killed Hannibal meme format: Doug Ford shoots Southern Ontario Car Traffic with [orders 1.2M back to office], then says "Why would the bike lanes do this"?

“What exactly does the court’s bike-lane decision mean?

Yes, the Charter protected Toronto’s bike lanes. No, bike lanes are not a Charter right”

@jm_mcgrath on the court win protecting (for the moment) the Bloor, University, and Yonge bike lanes.

I love that they won their case! This is great news for #Toronto, #cycling, and #transportation in the city.

So happy to be a supporter of #CycleTO

This machine kills sprawl. #BikeTooter #CycleTO #OnPoli #TOPoli

A bicycle at Queen's Park with the Ontario legislature building in the background in forced perspective. The building has a giant Canadian flag on the upper wall. The bicycle has a cardboard & paper sign over the back wheel; it reads "This Machine Kills Sprawl".

Several cyclists are celebrating a judicial victory.

"The ride is definitely better on charter-protected bike lanes." #BikeTooter #ToPoli #ONPoli #CycleTO

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.

The bike lanes on Bloor Street, University Avenue, and Yonge Street are now *protected* (get it?) from Doug Ford attempt to remove them.

Section 7 - Life, liberty, and security of person

7. Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of the person and the right not to be deprived thereof except in accordance with the principles of fundamental justice.

Section 7 guarantees the life, liberty and personal security of all Canadians. It also requires that governments respect the basic principles of justice whenever they intrude on those rights.

A victory for every traffic participant in #Toronto, including those who’ll be angry about this important decision. What a relief. Huge thanks to the organizers of this effort. #TOpoli #cycleTO

After promoting this anti-bike, anti-transit, anti-homeless event, did Councillor Brad Bradford skip attending because he saw that there were only 30 people there? I’m only hypothesizing, you’d have to ask him.

Screenshot from linked Star article, which reads:

The group of about 30 residents were
joined by Anthony Furey, the right-wing
pundit who came fourth to Chow in the
2023 mayoral byelection and is
considering running again, as well as
Toronto Conservative MP Roman Baber.

Coun. Brad Bradford (Ward 19, Beaches-
East York), who placed eighth two years
ago and is widely expected to challenge
Chow again next year, was listed as a
speaker but didn't show. He told the Star
he was tied up at a previously scheduled
planning committee meeting.

Toronto contains multitudes: the drivers who don't have to follow laws, the vandals who don't have to follow laws, and the cyclists who don't have to be safe.

Two screenshots of the two linked news articles, side by side. Speed cameras cut down again, and no new bike lanes. Quite a contrast.

Rumour on Urban Toronto has city councillor planning to kill some cycling infrastructure near the Danforth.

The neighbourhood is wealthy, drives more than it should given the subway nearby, and the cycling plan *adds* parking but it’s still not enough for car-fetish Toronto.
