WTF is up with yongeTOmorrow? A blog about cycling and political advocacy based in Toronto, Canada. (#BikeTO)

Happy Easter! Given there will be a consultation for yongeTOmorrow on Tuesday April 21, I wrote a blog post explaining what happened since the project was approved by City Council in 2021. Spoiler: it's bad news for pedestrianization. #BikeTO #WalkTO #TOpoli www.twowheeledpolitics.ca/2026/04/wtf-...

A sign Toronto’s election is unofficially underway? Attack ads target ‘failed mayor’ Olivia Chow The ads from A Better City Toronto hammer Mayor Olivia Chow over her record on public safety, affordability and gridlock.

Even though the 2026 election won't launch until May 1, ABC Toronto has already started launching attack ads against Mayor Olivia Chow. We need to not only ensure Chow gets re-elected, but also elect (and re-elect) progressives to council. #BikeTO #WalkTO #TTC #TOpoli www.thestar.com/news/gta/a-s...

I wonder what's the reason behind @joshmatlow.bsky.social voting against this snow clearing idea from NYC? Given the major snowfall from January which saw many sidewalks and bike lanes left unusable for weeks, it's worth pursuing whenever the City needs additional resources. #BikeTO #WalkTO #TOpoli

Poster from Open Streets Toronto and 8 80 Cities

--

What are Open Streets?

Open Streets are recurring programs that temporarily open streets to people a d close them to cars.

Streets become places where people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds can walk, bike, play, socialize, and improve their health. They are an opportunity for people to experience their city streets in a whole new way.

Over 100,000 people participated in 2019, and support for bringing the program back remains extremely strong across the city.

The Open Streets Program supports community health, local businesses, and public space activation.

Sign the Petition to help us bring back Toronto's Open Streets Program for 2026!

Great analysis by @jm-mcgrath.bsky.social on Doug Ford's transportation policies. Says "Every incremental car we add to the road makes the experience of driving worse for everyone. Traffic gets worse & gasoline prices get higher as more consumers chase a scarce good." #BikeTO #WalkTO #TOpoli #ONpoli

Shawn Micallef: Toronto’s snow removal this year left a lot to be desired — no matter what the city told you Toronto’s snow removal this year seems like a lost opportunity to show how a progressive elected official can fix things that are broken — and communicate that clearly.

Excellent Toronto Star column by @shawnmicallef.bsky.social about Toronto's poor snow clearing this winter. Appreciated his linking of my post about @bikewaysto.bsky.social's volunteer bike lane clearing efforts! #BikeTO #WalkTO #TOpoli www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...
