Via TorontoToday we spoke alongside Gig Workers United about incentivized dangerous behaviours in the food delivery game plus the reality that delivery couriers are not causing collisions in any number near those caused by motorists: torontotoday.ca/local/transpor…

Last night people bikes rode in the rain for bike lanes. Immediately Toronto Police were antagonistic. A dozen bike cops arrived early & took over the main gathering point. The bike cops attending were the same ones who had arrested the Fridays Stantec protestors 1/5

Meanwhile, every day drivers by the dozens choose their convenience over our safety by parking their vehicles illegally in the Bloor bike lanes. They do so with an apparent sense of entitlement and impunity created in no small part by the lack of enforcement by Toronto Police

In light of recent anti-cyclist policing, we wanted to share our Cycling & the Police Guide: thebikinglawyer.ca/post/cycling-p… As we have seen in Toronto, police have recently been targeting/ticketing cyclists. Thanks to MDC for the collab.

Thank you for this excellent report. A great snapshot --- for the third year in a row --- of cycling in Toronto. A must read for the cycling and road safety advocate. #biketo

It's never been clearer that we need more ways to get safely from A to B, not less. That's why I'm joining Cycle Toronto this Saturday from 2-4pm, for their Kidical Mass Ride at Queen's Park. You can find more here, as we fight for safer streets for all:

When all is said and done, *this* will be the biggest boondoggle of the Eglinton Crosstown. When the 14 years of construction and budget overruns are long forgotten, people will be asking why we built it in the first place if the line is not given traffic priority.

Ford promised bike lane removals could happen today onward in TO (Bloor W, Yonge, & Uni). That means we’ve got to be vigilant! Eyes open! If you see construction crews amassing to remove lanes, post/tag local cycling orgs & advocates. Send pictures. Be safe & don’t interfere.

This is so wild. On the eve of a Charter Challenge to the removal of bike lanes the realities of road violence again arise: "Police search for driver after 4 pedestrians hurt in hit-and-run on TMU campus" cp24.com/local/toronto/…

We could still renew the West Island as an amazing public park for less that what it will cost to build the parking for Ontario Place for Everyone’s private indoor spa.

Tearing out bike lanes won’t cut gridlock, cycling advocates say. An Ontario Superior Court justice appears to agree. #onpoli thetrillium.ca/news/justice/j…

Jack Hauen (@jackhauen) 's Twitter Profile Photo

Justice Schabas said he may issue a temporary injunction, blocking the government from removing the bike lanes, in the next few days. He said he didn't like the idea that his decision "might be moot" by the time he delivers it. #onpoli thetrillium.ca/news/justice/j…

Montreal is once again showing the rest of North America how to transform a lot of streets for people — 8 commercial streets in #Montreal are “pedestrianized” [turned into great people-places] this summer, with 7.3km across 6 boroughs. Plus small sections. montreal.citynews.ca/2025/05/26/mon…

Yesterday, Bike Share Toronto reached a record 36,000 trips! In addition the 14-day average is about 20% higher than this time last year. The popularity of the system is exploding, and our governments need to support a safe and connected cycling network.

My Toronto Star column: Bike Share Toronto is booming. We’re smashing ridership records. But it’s not enough. The growth still leaves us way behind bike share ridership in Montreal With better balancing and more infrastructure, I think we can beat them thestar.com/opinion/contri…
