TORONTO SUN: "hailed as a champion of safer streets and environmental progress, has become the face of Toronto’s cycling movement"

I'll keep saying it. In light of the decision in "Cycle Toronto v Ontario" plus Alberta and Nova Scotia pursuing magical thinking and stroking a culture war, it's time for PM Carney and Transpo Minister Freeland to tell the provinces to stay in their lane:

Sarkaria also shared an IntegrityTO video of Cycle Toronto's deputation at Toronto City Hall against Bill 60 (here showing a clip of the Minister's evasive answer on what the banning of lane removals for "any other prescribed purpose" actually means).

1) Has he actually skated long distances? He might find it more physical work than he imagines.
2) In what way is cycling on a good trail on a winter day not "sheer delight"? One of my very best memories is a ride up the Humber Trail on the first really wintery day one year. Beautiful.

narrowing car lanes is a good way to force low-speed streets in addition to a way to provide bike lanes without getting caught in the province's stupid legislation.
bike on, toronto. the province can try, but this is a city that walks, bikes, and takes transit in huge numbers and that won't change.

This isn't Doug Ford or the Province doing this. This is a municipality choosing to de-prioritize the safety of vulnerable road users to save less than $5 per resident.
Motion fails 6-7.
Gibson, Richardson, Guthrie, Billings, Chew, Busutill, Hauser vote against.

Exactly what Toronto (ie. Rogers) should be doing. If Bichette and Tucker or Bregman sign that's a good squad.

After some good news earlier in the week for Fernando Gaviria 🇨🇴 as he signs for Caja Rural-Seguros RGA, he has some rather bad news.
The Colombian sprinter has been handed a 2 month suspended prison sentence for driving 5x over the legal drink drive limit. Not good!

Ford says he will audit ‘left-wing radical groups’ opposed to government legislation | Globalnews.ca

A bad day for Canada, and therefore the world.
Ontario (population 16 million, 40% of the country) has passed new legislation prohibiting bike lanes that take a lane from cars.
An escalation from Bill 212, which required municipalities to get approval.

Second pro cyclist to be hit by a driver over the last week.
Unless there’s a justifiable reason for it, hitting a cyclist should result in an immediate driving ban, with the term decided upon according to the driver’s actions/failures in causing the collision.

Thank you @escapecollective.bsky.social . Words matter: "[pro cyclist] Thibault Guernalec left with multiple injuries after being hit by a driver during training". Guernalec is the second pro involved in collision this week as Lorena Wiebes was the victim of a hit-and-run.

"Being uncomfortable is not the same as being unsafe" is also true on our streets. It's people driving cars that are the cause of traffic deaths and serious injuries despite the incessent outcry over e-bikes, e-scooters, and e-mopeds.
