Fantastic clip from @NotJustBikes on how prioritizing cars actually hurts Main Street businesses and communities. It includes a nice quote from the local Board of Trade who thought prioritizing cars would help the town centre. Guess what actually happened?

@MarcSkulnick You may have zero confidence, but it doesn't mean that we can't demand better. I'm sure you know that the HSR stands for Hamilton Street Railway. #HamOnt deserves better

@Ward2Hamilton @AndreaHorwath @gcrawfordHamOnt @LiUNACanada @TheSpec this is the status of the once grand Tivoli theatre. #HamOnt has lost so many of its theatres. We were able to save and restore the Lister Block. Surely this can be saved as a theatre in some fashion.

Happy Indigenous Peoples Day! Just a reminder that Native Americans are not a historical people, that we are still here, and that the biggest injustice in U.S. history—the dispossession of land from Indigenous nations largely by fraudulent treaties—remains ongoing

@opsb4uw @uwaytbay @UWCentraidePR sixteen intrepid cyclist are riding from Thunder Bay to Toronto these next ten days!!

The Economist just published a deeply-researched story about car bloat, and it's very, very damning: "For every life that the heaviest 1% of SUVs and trucks save, there are more than a dozen lives lost in other vehicles." Well worth your time: economist.com/interactive/un…

Reaching Canada's climate targets requires a big switch from fossil fuel energy to clean electricity. Governments can meet the growing demand by building cleaner, bigger and smarter electricity systems. Learn more #cdnpoli climateinstitute.ca/reports/big-sw…
