Fellow Ontario tax payers - please like and retweet if you would rather $3.2 Billion be invested in public services, like education, healthcare, ODSP, support for autism families, than be dolled out in one-time $200 pre-election bribes by Doug Ford. #onpoli #onted #cdpoli

Creating a culture war and blaming traffic on bike lanes for political gain is incredibly concerning. Cycling infrastructure only stands to benefit public health, the environment, the economy…and congestion…

Whose best interests are being considered here?

The roof panels didn’t force the closure of the Ontario Science Centre; the Provincial government forced the closure of the Ontario Science Centre, using the roof panels as the cover for their actions.

It could and should have remained open. It could and should be reopened.

Landing in Toronto, it's clear:
• Island airport should become 80% park, 20% housing, 0% airport. Do NOT renew lease.
• ON Place should turn into magnificent waterfront PUBLIC park for all, FREE.
• Lots of areas for human scale density 6 - 12 fl.

😱 #Toronto The city where I can't build a small deck on my own property without jumping through hoops, but we tear down an entire waterfront forest for a spa.

This video camera study showed that less than 5% of people on bikes break traffic laws while riding, yet 66% of people do so when driving. And if you REALLY want even MORE bike-riders to obey laws, build more protected bike infrastructure. Via @carltonreid https://t.co/fP5NYJNN80

Seriously, WATCH this short video to see how to effectively make the case for protected bike-lanes, and particularly how they’re good for business. Or just as a great example of how to speak to any city council.

Watch it, then share it. HT @PVDStreets

Doug Ford's 401 tunnel scandal would benefit the exact same developers as Doug Ford's Greenbelt scandal.

Is this Ford's scheme to replace the billions that they lost when the Greenbelt deals were reversed?

Toronto's 4th emergency service, the Toronto Community Crisis Service, is now city-wide.

You can call 211 in all parts of Toronto, 24/7, to get a caring, non-police, crisis response.

I was happy to join the launch at West Neighbourhood House, right here in #DavenportTO.

@mindoverdata @your_juannonly But it does provide a handy list of people to block…

[How-Sen @HowSenChong]

Cars per day:
401: 400,000
Gardiner: 140,000
DVP: 130,000
427: 300,000
Total on all major highways: 970,000

Rides per day:
GO train system: 200,000
TTC: 2,500,000

Households with no access to car: 28%

Yet, nearly all public space is given to cars.

The Star has a deeply detailed report on how the sleazebag Ontario government picked the worst-performing route of three possible subway routing options, rerouting to land owned almost entirely by the billionaire Conservative-affiliated DeGasperis family
