The City of Ottawa posted the raw speed data from before and after Doug Ford banned speed cameras and the effect is so obvious it's not even necessary put a line marking when that happened.
This chart shows the percentage of drivers going 15km/h or more over the posted limit.
The data: https://open.ottawa.ca/datasets/52f34797978c44c1820b8b2d7a4ae3ed

FFS the Ottawa Citizen is regurgitating official stats again. They acknowledge the comparison is BS, but report it as fact anyway:
https://ottawacitizen.com/news/city-hall-security-incidents
How about total foot traffic to City Hall? Has that declined too? Attendance in the Council and committee galleries?
I, for one, haven't even tried going to City Hall because I'm sure my bike tools will be classified as "dangerous". What am I going to do? Leave my "dangerous" equipment on my bike where it can be stolen?

"Mayor Mark Sutcliffe could face some formidable competition in the mayoral race as a number of high-profile candidates are poised to kick off their campaigns with the nomination period opening on Friday."
Multiple candidates often give the incumbent an advantage as the votes for change are split amongst candidates.

The customary introduction post, pinned for now.
I moved here from mstdn.ca partly as a result of the controversy there but also because ottawa.place is where I would have been if I knew about it when I first came to Mastodon.
I also have a blog ( http://the5thc.blogspot.com/ ) and a GPS maps site ( https://gpstrailmaps.blogspot.com/ ) and a youtube channel which is mostly slideshows of my photos ( https://www.youtube.com/@richardwwoodley/videos ).
My bio here reads: Retired Parliamentary Indexer. Socialist, political observer and sometime activist with HBA in Political Science, Laurentian University, 1973. Outdoorsperson, environmentalist, cyclist and former mountain biker. Amateur photographer and mapmaker.
