What is she really passionate about? Parking

Rarely any council meeting goes by without her pushing some new parking policy.

And notice how she talks about transit users, in her mind families drive their minivan, they don’t take transit.

Her annual bike ride doesn’t make her an ally for biking or active transportation in Toronto

Obviously not everything is won. They might find another consulting firms that is less shameful. And #CycleToronto encourage us to email them so that they don't deliver the 1.5KM of scope they decided to keep.

But we are slowing the project, potentially saving lives and hopefully leaving more time for the courts to fight it.

It does set a precedent for other firms. Taking contract from the government doesn't mean it's ethical and you can get a PR nightmare out of it.

Well that is interesting.

There was a public shaming campaign against #Stantec engineering firm because of their contract with the Ontario government to destroy our bike lanes in Toronto. There was protests at their office downtown Toronto + an email campaign by #CycleToronto

I personally sent 2 emails to their Media person, Colin Nekolaichuk

Well within Cycle Toronto newsletter, we learn that they gave up on the majority of the project (!!) and will only deliver a small part

@cargot_robbie Whoa! We’ve long admired work of Toronto bike advocates, including their Cycling Handbook in 14 languages: https://www.cycleto.ca/torontocyclinghandbook. We link to that handbook on our site’s “Other Languages” [other than Spanish and English] page.

Photo is some Toronto cyclists we met in 2011, biking in city of Monterey.
