Today Is the Day!
Today is election day in #Montreal and many other municipalities in Quebec. It matters. Yet, many voters don’t think so. They are busy. It is their day off. Why waste the day standing in line to vote?
Because it matters.

Leslie Roberts is proposing no longer clearing bike lanes in the winter.
He’s a prominent Canadian television host somewhat surprisingly running for city council in Montreal (with Ensemble Montréal).
One borough mayor I talked to said their borough has 1 bike lane plow vs 13 for sidewalks.

Le candidat d'Ensemble Montréal, Leslie Roberts, propose de ne pas déneiger les pistes cyclables l’hiver. Ils mettent en jeu la sécurité des familles à vélo juste pour plaire aux haters.

Some weirdo on Twitter has been absolutely melting down for like 36 straight hours because I posted:
When this is over, do not forget what ICE did, and what ICE is. And do not make room for them in society. Make sure they know that they are, and will continue to be, reviled and beneath contempt.

Réduire la place de l'auto en centre urbain pour y ajouter de la verdure et des infras cyclables est une décision porteuse pour une société ; santé des citoyens, beauté environnante qui rend les gens fiers de leur ville, et, point non négligeable dont on ne parlera jamais assez ; la socialisation.

Despite the so-called “war on cars”, there are still lots of roads in Montreal to drive or park your car on. Most of them, actually.

Refuser d’investir dans le vélo pour mieux aider l’itinérance, c’est une instrumentalisation lâche et grossière. Si EM ne veut rien savoir du vélo, que le parti l'assume et qu'il n’utilise pas l'itinérance comme paravent politique pour masquer ses réelles positions sur le vélo. SMF ne dupe personne.
Ensemble Montréal promet un moratoire de 12 à 18 mois sur les nouvelles pistes cyclables
Le parti de Soraya Martinez Ferrada préfère se concentrer sur d’autres priorités, comme l’itinérance.

Selon Dutrizac, cet automobiliste de Montréal s'exprime sans démagogie, colère ni violence. J'aimerais savoir ce qu'est pour lui quelqu'un qui agit ainsi - si lui ne le fait pas.
Par ailleurs, imaginons ce qui se passerait si les cyclistes faisaient la même chose envers les automobilistes.

La différence entre l'individu injurieux qui insulte à tout vent et le portrait de citoyen modèle dépeint par Dutrizac est frappante. Rien de hasardeux à cacher son identité à la radio publique, il se cache. QUB est une honte.

Si l'ADP était à ce point dangereuse pour les automobilistes, on aurait depuis longtemps viré la ville à l'envers pour corriger la situation. Mais pour les cyclistes ? Continuons de ne pas soulever les vrais enjeux, d'opposer les divers modes de transport et d'entretenir une guerre qui n'existe pas.

“We can’t all be expected to bike.”
Fair. But that’s not the point.
“Not everyone can or wants to bike. But some people can & do—and they deserve a safe, efficient, affordable way to move through the city. It’s about freedom of choice.”
