DOFO on his way to build another expensive highway that moves less people than trains, busses, and bike lanes, while forcing more people into car traffic.

You have your chance in a few months.

If only we used the popular vote instead of using ridings. All corrupt bullshit

Nearly every part of the bill will achive the oposite of its goals. It will not speed you up. It will not end gridlock.

What it will do is continue car dependency, continue unsustainable and unaffordable single family home sprawl, continue to create unfair transport systems for anyone unable to drive. It will increase municipal spending on roads, it will strip control and power away from municipalities and at the rate we are going, it will be illegal to protest it.

We are already behind on transit development, denser housing, and meeting climate goals. This bill is going to push us even farther behind. It is the opposite of a solution and will continue the planning decisions that have already pushed this country to its limit. Why do we refuse to build a functional country? Why have we let a crook involved in a multi billion dollar land scandal stay in power?

Let's not forget his steamrolling democracy, his love of trump, giving the koch bros hundreds of millions while destroying the turbines, the non-action on and secret phone calls with the convoy as he sat on his fat ass at his cottage, his fully supported daughter playing the conspiracy angle, and his pals - the proud boys

The placement of the words and creature need to be reversed.

Did they actually get a photo op of him riding a steamroller and expect a different outcome?
