If you don't see that Pierre Poilievre is already actively working to weaken and belittle our Free Press in front of your eyes, I can't help you. The far right is not always subtle. You just have to watch what they do, not what they say.

The best kind of cycling infrastructure?

An absence of car traffic.

Any road or street without car traffic is usually a great place to ride a bike.

This road outside Oslo has been permanently closed to car traffic. It’s one of my favorite places.

The beautiful Gothic Art Deco 'Whitney Block Tower' (circa 1926) has essentially been abandoned since the 1960s. It still contains one of the few operational hand cranked elevators remaining in #Toronto.
