Exhausted with Times Colonist publishing these anti bike lane rant letters. The rage bait generates lots of engagement but it's getting really old. Maybe they could just replace each one with 'Old man with no facts thinks bike lanes bad; number 623. ' timescolonist.com/opinion/letter…

“While Mayor, I was often asked ‘how have you been able to afford this in ?’ I’d reply, ‘how have you been able to NOT afford it? 25 years ago we were a few days away from going bankrupt. So the city invested in the cheapest infrastructure… bicycling.” — Morten Kabell

Premier Ford told ministers to:

✔️scrap the province’s cap-and-trade program
✔️fight the federal government on the price on carbon ✔️remove environmental laws
✔️prioritize businesses over clean air and water
✔️kill investments in green technologies/energy

Wow! Packed meeting here in Hamilton as a huge fairground hall with over 1,000 seats is packed with citizens concerned about Greenbelt development forced by Doug Ford’s provincial government.

Speak up for a better future!
