The wannabe populist premier of Ontario is trying to use bike lanes as a wedge to curry favour with his base. He'd put road safety, municipal budgets & climate targets at risk, to retain power. But TO has been responding, critically:

We will be seen and we will be heard.

Tonight’s ghost bike delivery to Queen’s Park and the Ford government in Toronto.

Ok, Canadian illustrators... game on: can you create a contemporary, inclusive, 🍁 version of this Ding Darling classic? (or maybe @tomflood.bsky.social already has?)

It's 104 years since J.N. "Ding" Darling published this cartoon about situation people, and especially children, find themselves in while trying to cycle safely.

Sadly the same attitudes persist today.

Safe cycling infrastructure is better for everyone, whether you are cycling, driving or on foot.

It’s time 🇨🇦 English language adopt the word Fietser!

The word Cyclist is too deeply entrenched in sport and spandex. It’s holding 🇨🇦 back.
🚲😀👍

Canada, where any sport can be a winter sport…
Lots of people will love this 👇joke and laugh out loud, until you suggest winter cycling. 🚲❄️

Then half of Canadians, (who’ve also never tried winter biking) become passionately against it.🤷‍♂️ why?
