Currently trying to get a cyclist-only stop sign removed in my neighbourhood. How's it been going? Well I've been working on it for 5 years now..

Toronto needs to stop waiting for the “perfect conditions” before building anything. The Yonge Street makeovers (both of them) are delayed waiting for a perfect fantastical future where their construction won't bother anyone. That's not how Montreal got its pedestrian streets.
I think what's darkly funny from a public health perspective is that on a per capita basis, motorcycle riders are the people most likely to die on Toronto's roads. But nobody cares about them lol. You're never going to see an article about that.
Seriously
Gatekeeping Toronto is oxymoronic because the key piece of being a real Torontonian is that you hate yourself.
Not a criticism of Oliver or anything, but I feel like this Fifa thing has people really down on Toronto... (even more than normal).
And while we wait longer the costs escalate further. The John Street corridor was $40 million back in 2017, which is already an insane amount of money, and now it's at $93 million because we're duplicating costs.
