Went out tonight in the slight rain monsoon to protest the closing of the bike lanes on Jarvis Street.
We gathered for a candlelight vigil. I was interviewed by the Toronto Star, I said I don't understand why the city is ignoring the people who live on Jarvis, like me, and removing the bike lanes. The reported asked if I thought this lane removal could be stopped but I said this is about a bigger picture, a Toronto where we share the roads and explore alternate forms of transportation, and this idea is not going away.
Afterward the group chained a green bicycle to the street with messages on it in protest and to keep our city green. I may have suggested the bicycle's location.
Some flags.
