One of the coolest things about people who don't have a lot of power taking a principled stand is it lays bare the complete cowardice of the ones who actually *do* have power when they fail to do even a fraction as much.
Unlike Macklemore, these support acts don’t have big followings and they are giving up their chance to perform to stadiums to push back against censorship, not of themselves but of a fellow artist. Respect.

Is Toronto the only major city ripping out bike lanes? 😒 What a colossal step backwards (and at the taxpayer’s expense!). Boooooo to Doug Ford.

Chubby #ONpoli Doug Ford who has never ridden a bike is costing taxpayers ~$50M to pick a fight over #Toronto's bike lanes! Because of political revenge because Torontonians rejected him as their #TOpoli mayor. Instead of focusing on his job as premier, he's cosplaying as Toronto mayor.
Toronto's bike lanes cost millions to install. What's the price tag for their removal or reconfiguration? | CBC News
With bike lane removal and reconfiguration plans along some of the city's busiest roads now underway, questions persist over what the endeavour will look like and how much it's going to cost taxpayers...

Yesterday Doug Ford did three things that will make congestion around Toronto much, much worse.
First, Ford has made made massive cuts to GO Train service on the Lakeshore West, Lakeshore East, Barrie and Stouffville lines. In some cases, GO Train frequency will drop from 15 trains a day to 4

The Ontario government should be held liable for every single injury this causes. They should be sued into oblivion for essentially ruining safe road access.
That’s almost the entire network. It’s so much worse than we feared 😔

An entire lane on both sides of Bloor is taken up by parked cars.
Reducing congestion isn’t what they care about.
It’s about torturing Torontonians.
It’s about giving contracts to their construction company donors.
It’s about distraction from their many scandals. Staples, downtown hotel stays…

Bikes aren’t the reason why traffic is bad. Cars getting in the way of other cars are.
The best way to reduce traffic is to give people other options to get around. That means bikes. And transit. And pedestrian-first streets.
