Today is #TransgenderDayOfRemembrance. This year, we remember 350 trans people who were murdered. In the past 15 years, more than 5000 murders are documented, most of them trans women of colour in the Global South. We mourn the dead. We fight like hell for the living.

Anyone else getting sleep apnea ads every third post? Watching the end of this platform in real time is so surreal!

BREAKING: The Ontario Professional Planners Institute @OntarioPlanners has submitted an 8-page letter to the Government of #Ontario opposing the removal of bike-lanes in #Toronto or any other municipal jurisdiction.

A very thorough case, with evidence.

But hey, that’s why the work is a marathon, not a sprint.

Bike lanes are often empty because they're an efficient way to move a lot of people in the blink of an eye.

[Observing The City @observinthecity]

Residents are out on Danforth today to fight Bill 212 and advocate for true BALANCE on our streets between all transit modes with safe and connected micromobility infrastructure. This intersection in the danforth moves 20x this number of people in the bike lane every day.

Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users.

ALL ROAD USERS.

And painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s safer to NOT have them.

My womanhood is not threatened by a trans woman claiming hers ♥

... and women are and will continue to die because of it. #genderbias #healthcare #discrimination

Women in pain? It must be the hysteria!

This is part of the gender bias. 👇 There are so many medical conditions that manifest differently in female bodies than male bodies, even symptoms manifest differently (pain is a great example). Treating us "in the same way" is treating us as if we had male bodies...

@adamcharris @AirCanada @yfcairport We'd have more reliable and likely more frequent service if we had one, centralized airport for the province. Just putting it out there, again. 😁

"We invest in car culture, we need to invest in transit culture."
Damn right! @cityofsaintjohn this would make so much sense for us.

@cityofsaintjohn Apparently there was a ferry between the uptown and lower west a long, long time ago. It would be a great addition to our transportation system and fill that gap for active transport peeps forced to use the reversing falls bridge.
