We hold City Hall to account for its road safety, cycling + climate plans while fighting to reallocate space to walk/cycle/transit to create healthy communities.

- Reposted by Community Bikeways - TCBCThe War on Cars, welcome to Toronto! We are so excited to be in the city that inspired the podcast's title. We’ll see you at our LIFE AFTER CARS show on Thursday, Feb 5th, hosted by @cycletoronto.bsky.social. Who knows? Maybe we can convince Doug Ford to come. boxoffice.hotdocs.ca/websales/pag...

- "The imminent arrival of Chinese EVs to the Cdn market is a jolt of reality for DougFord. He’s spent much of his premiership meddling in municipal affairs, notably speed cameras, bike lanes + TO’s mayoral race. Now he faces issues that should actually concern him..." www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

- "Road safety should not be ideological. The data is clear. The solutions are known. And the cost of inaction is not abstract — it is measured in futures erased, in love with nowhere to go, and in grief that never resolves" - Vanessa Gentile #biketo #onpoli www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

But any city that sees them as broader answer to public transportn frustrations is making an error as egregious as removing bikelanes to install curb parking" @norton.bsky.social Must read article www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/arti...

- Right on @shawnmicallef.bsky.social Of course, Ford is focused on increasing congestion by reducing cost of driving ... but Liberals/NDP/Greens should make road tolls a policy priority. Ford's failures will soon be evident, giving them a clear opening. #onpoli www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

- If we want to live in a city that works for everyone, we have to invest. When @mayoroliviachow.ca took over, she had to deal with fact that Mayors Ford + Tory had kept property tax rates low to benefit their own political careers. #onpoli www.thestar.com/news/gta/her...

- Reposted by Community Bikeways - TCBCIt's time once again for my annual #treebybike post. This is the 12/19/42 cover of @newyorker.com, so one full year after the attack on Pearl Harbor. This would be the first real Christmas alone, or without a family member, for millions in the US. Gas and tire rationing had begun earlier that year.🗃️
- Reposted by Community Bikeways - TCBCMayor Olivia Chow is introducing fare capping for TTC riders in her upcoming budget. Instead of having to decide whether it makes sense to buy a monthly pass in advance, rides will automatically be free after 47 trips starting next Sept.

- We wrote to Chief Demkiw about this problem. He sent us a thoughtful, prompt response saying that supervisors would be advised of the matter. It's worth sending him this clip. myron.demkiw@torontopolice.on.ca drive.google.com/file/d/1LDv3...

- WOW, with Bike Plan on verge of dying on order paper, 50 cycling advocates give up their turn to speak (after 7hr wait) to ensure the plan for 20km of new bikeways moves forward to council. Great teamwork!! #biketo
