Just like Discount Trump here in #ontario
Can't have bike lanes if they get in the way of burning fossil fuels. #topoli #onpoli #biketo -
One of the many upsetting things about the Ford government's attack on bike lanes:
Prabmeet Sarkaria is the minister of transportation. He keeps saying that the bike lanes are unused and cause congestion.
He is also the first turban-wearing Sikh to be appointed to cabinet.
Any casual user of Toronto's bike lanes immediately notices that the most frequent year-round uses of the bike lanes are delivery drivers, many of whom are of Punjabi origins, just like Sarkaria.
If Sarkaria doesn't want to hear "downtown activists", maybe he should hear from his own community.
The people who will be most harmed by the bike lane removal are the delivery drivers. When a Punjabi delivery driver is killed in a car accident because he was cycling in a car lane, his blood will be is on Sarkaria's hands.
I haven't seen cycling activists trying to organize Punjabi delivery guys. Probably has to do with race and class.

My take: Doug Ford's success is inextricably tied to car dependency.
Cars provide the illusion of independence: the driver does the work of piloting the machine, and is sealed off from everyone around them.
Car dependent suburbs are stratified by income, reducing the income & race diversity of who folk are exposed to. All manner of unfamiliar people start to appear scary.
Absent community, a folksy guy peddling low taxes and law & order looks just fine.

The Doug Ford government has so underfunded Ontario hospitals that St. Catharines is currently asking for linen donations for their NICU.
Ford spent $25,000 of taxpayers' money for a stupid, useless sign not 15 minutes away, but no blankets for babies.

#DougFord & the #ProvincialConservative's fake Canada Day message is a joke. Don't spew your 2-faced patriotism when you sell out #Canadian crown lands to an unwanted 95-year lease to a foreign country. Hypocrites, all of them.

Ontario Line construction site mismanagement led this week to someone being run over in a crosswalk just blocks from my home, in a residential area with hundreds of kids.
The truck wasn’t following the official route, and this petition from the Pape Village Safety Action Council is pushing for better.
