#yycbike Bike Calgary stands with Velo Canada Bikes in calling out this terrible Bill 60 just passed in Ontario. We must come together all across Canada to prevent this wrong headed thinking from spreading any further.

I found this gate unsecured on the Bow River MUP at the bird sanctuary today. Further S along the MUP I found a city crew in their pickup - didn’t know anything about the gate but agreed that it was a danger and said they’d take care of it. Was secured when I saw again a few hours later. 👍 #yycbike

Do you think the GOA's action reflect this statement? What could the Province do to make cycling safer or more accessible for you?
