“Four parking spaces side-by-side on a surface parking lot is about the same amount of space as a one-bedroom apartment.” Maybe the trifecta of housing, density and transit is starting to become clear. More cars or more people? It’s a choice. One leads to better, more liveable…

$16K annually😱. After-tax dollars. That means foregoing a car is equivalent to getting a $25K/ year raise. Is YOUR city enabling people to do this by making it easier to bike or use transit? If not, you're setting up your population for major financial struggle.

Canadians estimated to pay over $1,300 a month to own a car, report finds Gas and parking were tied for second place at $200 a month, with interest in third place at $192, according to Ratehub nationalpost.com/news/canada/co…

Idk who needs to hear this: Bicyclists don’t pay insurance because our liability doesn’t warrant it. We don’t pay sticker or parking fees because bikes don’t use much space or weigh much. We’re entitled to use the road because our income/sales/property tax dollars pay for it.

It's cool that the @cityofhamilton gets paid for film shoots but what is the plan for cyclists to connect with the Cannon Lanes with Bay closed completely for a movie? We have only two north/south routes for bikes, one has been unfinished for 2 years and the other is closed.

BREAKING: Burlington City Council has unanimously approved a motion from @PaulSharman1 and me to get a report on cost estimates for free public transit in our city. And agreed to make transit free for seniors all day, and for high school students on evenings and weekends.
