Have to love all the seasons in #Toronto with the trees around the the Don Valley Brickworks still mostly green before the Thanksgiving long weekend.
Even spending 30 minutes in the @agotoronto.bsky.social is equal parts calming and inspiring. So much wonderful Canadian art to enjoy.

Ford celebrated ripping out bike lanes 2 days ago. Meanwhile, Bike Share is recording it's 5 millionth rider today. This is more rides than were seen in all of 2022, the system has doubled its ridership in 4 years.
I'm impressed with this space every time I pass through
Itβs a nice (exquisite) evening on the Toronto island. This is why we fight.
Love the architecture in the Annex neighbourhood of Toronto. Looking up at the 1966 Brazil Towers at 485 Huron Street. The building was designed by Uno Prii, an Estonian-Canadian architect.
βHereβs what we found: Every additional 100kg of vehicle weight was associated with a 6% increase in odds of pedestrian fatality. Every additional 10cm of height was associated with an 11% increase in odds of pedestrian fatality. The relationship was even stronger in lower-speed environments.β

Yep - sent @shamjiadil.bsky.social and Jon Tsao a message along with @shelleycarroll.bsky.social and Jon Burnside for good measure. This road is NOT a good detour. (CW: high speed near miss on a bike). We need to do better.
Always "read the plaque", and "take a snap" of the murals.
