@Aspireachievee Yes the passegiata is a lovely evening ritual in Italy, but in my recollection it’s usually done before dinner and can include enjoying an aperitivo at a sidewalk cafe.

@cbcradio What a badly-framed topic for Cross Country Checkup. Call it “How should Canada react to Donald Trump’s provocations?” or something similar. But your topic, CBC, is just garbage, and it’s an insult to the many Canadians who have recently demonstrated a fierce national pride.

BIG: Montreal Mayor @Val_plante has unveiled her new 4-year bike plan. Plante's "Vision Vélo" promises at least 200 km of new bikeways will be added to the existing network (which is already the best in North America) over 5 yrs, with 10 “express routes.” https://t.co/6dmNhhKvhI
