Public Transit has a marketing problem in Canada. Not to customers (who love it) but to senior governments (who are apparently not even aware it exists). May I propose:
"Transit. It's like a pipeline, but for people!"

I'm sorry. But if an SUV clips your handle bars while you are biking along a bike route, it's 100% the car drivers fault.
Infuriating that the VPD is somehow blaming this on the cyclist.

Congratulations to @seanorr.bsky.social and @lucymaloney.bsky.social. Huge victories in the Vancouver by-election.
Orr did better than Swanson in the last general. Maloney would have been a top vote getter too.
This is more than just a motivated opposition. There's a shift away from ABC. #vanpoli

Feels like we need more of this kind of marketing in Canada. I bet there are a lot of Canadian products that fly under the radar.
