Dear Canadians,
Stop buying US made vehicles.
We can cripple their auto industry by simply not buying American-made cars.
Buy the ones made anywhere but the USA.
Our power as consumers is in our money. Don't buy their shit. There are plenty of alternatives out there.

TTC what’s up ?! Trying to take transit downtown on a Saturday night in December with -5C 🥶 and planned track work + shuttle buses?! No wonder people drive in the city even if it’s gridlocked.

For children walking or cycling to school, "outside the school" is the least dangerous part of their journey. Children need 20mph limit protection on the whole of their home to school route. 20mph "just outside schools" contemptuously disregards duty of care on child mobility
School gate risk
We support those communities that want 20mph where peopleare

Why do people drive?
TTC bus - wait 20 minutes for it to arrive and another 23 minutes for it to move?!
I was spoiled by connections this morning to travel 8km which would take me 30 minutes if roads clear & safe #torontottc

Bike-lanes don’t cause traffic congestion.
Car dependency, dumb land-use sprawl, too many (& bigger) cars being driven too much taking up too much space, highly subsidized driving costs, and not enough choices in how to get around, ALL cause traffic congestion.
Think about it. THAT’S common sense.

US Citizen detained by ICE: Clearly it didn't matter that I was a citizen, a veteran, or identified who I was. They ignored everything I said. They just broke my window and dragged me out. I let them know I was a veteran, I wasn't doing anything wrong, just trying to get to work.
