These 32 #BloodBikes commemorate the 32 people killed on Bloor, Yonge & University in 20-years before bike lanes were built. After bike lanes were installed only one tragic loss of life has occurred in 6-years since 2020. Bike lanes keep EVERYONE save, not only people cycling.

Is it too much to ask for publishers of articles advocating for cycling routes on secondary roads in Toronto to require their authors to submit a proposed alternative? @RDiManno, is this the sort of secondary route you're thinking as an alternative to the Yonge Street lanes?

I eagerly await the announcement that we will be re-directing 1 million barrels per day from U.S export to the markets in Asia.

Mark Carney: "Today, 90% of Alberta's oil goes to the U.S. Pacific Link will materially reduce that dependence by allowing us to export an additional 1 million barrels a day to growing markets in Asia."

Well when it is for profit that means somebody is taking money out the system and one place to find it is offering less service. That should not be hard to anticipate.

Wait times increasing for some medical procedures outsourced to for-profit clinics in Ontario:...

Outsourcing surgeries and imaging to private for-profit clinics has not resulted in a drop in wait times for most procedures, according to a new study released Monday.

Our quality of life keeps getting worse because Liberal elites continue to lecture us and virtue signal. I’m not taking lessons on how to love my own country from people who push failed ideas that hurt Canadians. I love my country. That’s exactly why I will never sit quietly while our institutions veer further left, and off a cliff.
