“Will likely be” “situation is fluid”
An initial guess that can be updated based on more information coming in.
For sure. And it was different when I didn’t have kids. I don’t bike commute with my kid below -20° windchill, since that’s the temperature my kid stops going outside for recces at. But in Eastern Ontario thats a couple days a year. And people with the means, or abilities, I have, must continue to use active and public transit even in extreme conditions as that is all that is availible to them.
We can also solve urban sprawl. There’s millennia of different solutions. We just choose not to and, at least in Canada, continue creating new sprawl.
Or we can reduce our infrastructure costs and make it easier to people to move around without needing to own a car. Maybe reduce some of that Euclidean zoning that forces so many to need to drive in the first place.
Cars were no replacement for pedal bikes when I lived in Yellowknife. Car just didn’t work on the cold, or required massive costs to preheat before driving. Walking and biking you just went.
Cars were great (and necessary) for getting out of the city in the summer though.
Why not? No issues in Canada, Finland, or Sweden that I’ve seen.
Electric cycles, scooters, and other micromobility already exist as EVs a hundredfold more affordable than electric cars.
Privative air and personal motor vehicles; nationalize rail, transit, and micromobility.

I like the implication that being over 30 would make me an Old New Democrat.
I mean the one in the field.
Why is weed trimming around the supports necessary?
A private jet for Doug Ford also does not help those unable to drive or unable to afford to drive.
Ontario and Quebec, at least, already have tax exempt coloured fuel for farming. I think most provinces do.
Coloured fueling transportation is an option, but there are some second and third order effects that come to mind.
This isn’t given to everyone equally. Its given to people who drive.
Instead invest those funds in public and active transit. Things everyone can choose to use, yet are not forced to.
Arresting/detaining people is not in the mandate of Toronto special constables.

With the benifit of hindsight, scrapping the project was a good idea. Not finding new work for the engineering and science team was not.
To be clear, those people should have mobility options available to them. But why do we put primacy on disabled people who can drive over disabled people who cannot drive?
