  3. "People will be asked to walk." 30 yrs ago we knew the solution was low carbon cities. We don't have the luxury of wasting 30 more debating 'smart cities.' We know what to do: density + mixed use. Complete communities, supported by cycling and transit.

  4. We like to think of New York City, the centre of capitalism on our continent, as a bastion of the free market economy. In reality, the city works (to the extent that it does) because about 2.4 million people live in rent-regulated apartments.

  5. Cities the world over have put that genie back in the bottle with the redesign of streets, and traffic tickets commensurate with the magnitude of the crime. An unsafe city isn't our destiny. It is a choice of city leaders who have all the tools they require to make streets safe.

  6. See this article by from over 6 yrs ago. This was in the trenches, when the idea of ‘winter cycling’ was a faraway vision for a skeptical public and a council that was outright hostile to it (Rob Ford was Mayor).

  8. Record # of January riders with 102,148 rides. In January, in our winter city. And remember, commuting cyclists tend to ride their own bikes, so there are many more riders. They said no one would ride in the winter. They said it wasn’t a real choice. They were wrong.

  9. is responding to the demand for urban living and the need to provide more housing choice in close proximity to where of people work by injecting a variety of new housing types into the downtown core.

  10. So nice to be in where road tolls are just a socially accepted way of life. Next step: use revenues for rapid transit!

    This is precisely why we created . Strong policy is already leading and shaping better and more housing choices for families. Great policy anticipates the needs of future generations.

  12. I would have thought that it would undermine his credibility. Just saying you had the most people at your inauguration doesn't make it true. Just sounding like you won doesn't make it true. There are presumably real, hard numbers involved?!

  13. If it comes out later that didn't win, that will go down as a seriously odd speech. Quite discombobulating: he pretended we know the results when we don't. Hard not to feel like you were missing something.

  14. I would start with the portion with the highest volume of pedestrians, between College and Dundas. Like we advocated in the

  16. The Broadway bus in Vancouver is NA’s busiest bus route. We should learn from our mistakes - think Toronto’s Sheppard subway - and not settle for building half a transit line. UBC is a city unto itself that needs to be connected into the larger region.

  18. As high income earners switch to renting, the affordability crisis is now hitting middle-income renters across the country (not just in big metros).

  19. Cautionary tale: in just a decade, Calgary has become a city where young people see no future - they’re leaving in droves. If you build your city around an unsustainable industry - oil+gas - don’t be surprised to see your future slip through your fingers.

  20. Yes, but when rennovicted new renters are pushed into a market with decreasing access to affordable housing in the absence of vacancy decontrols. Two sides of the same coin. Multiple policy solutions are required to work in concert to ensure stable housing in our cities.
