We went by the brand new Confederation GO Station in Hamilton today.

Bus service started in 2019, now train service has finally arrived as well.

Will you venture to the new Confederation GO Station soon?

did you know that montreal once had the first fully automated metro in north america? the expo express was built for the world fair in 1967 and was in service until the 70s. today, you can still see an abandoned bridge that it used to run on.

almost every single time i bike on the de maisonneuve bike path in downtown montreal, i see a near miss involving a delivery driver on one of these mopeds.

Celeste Trianon @celeste.lgbt · 1d

Perhaps one of the most urgent urbanism policies we can implement is to ban mopeds from bike lanes — in particular the kind with fake pedals (see image).

They literally endanger cyclists — which are what these bikes lanes are meant for.

Mopeds should have moped lanes. Not bike lanes.

Voilà pourquoi j'ai choisi Luc Rabouin à la mairie de Montréal.

C'est une question d'équité territoriale : que l'ensemble du territoire soit aussi choyé que le Plateau l'a été ces dernières années.

Dimanche, on vote en grand nombre pour le progrès (vote par anticipation)!

Montreal is underrated for its residential pedestrian plazas. More of these. Everywhere.

not a *residential* plaza, but if you have time, i highly recommend stopping by the place des montréalaises at night for an amazing view of downtown.

The MTA is celebrating the MetroCard’s farewell with citywide events, limited-edition food, photo ops and merch through December 2025, as New York transitions to tap-and-ride payments. MetroCards remain valid into 2026.

bike paths are also useful for emergency vehicles during the winter! (this is a one-way street for cars with a bidirectional bike path) #velomtl #bikesky

This is why we have to renew our commitment to public transit in #Ottawa. If we're going to be slaving people back to work, we need to become #1 in North America again.

First stop. We need people that are willing to put pressure, and maintain it on OC.

Enfin, ce trou dans le réseau cyclable est corrigé. Lorsque les pistes cyclables sur Mont-Royal seront complétées, cela viendra apaiser un secteur qui en a grandement besoin, où les collisions sont fréquentes.
