Send this to any worker 💜

Bike shares change how I move in Toronto as someone who doesn’t drive! The workers that make sure bike share stations are stocked with bikes that are maintained with regular frequency are doing work that is as essential to my daily life as the workers that make buses, streetcars, and the subway run and they should absolutely be protected as workers!” - Fatima H, Toronto

Our communities are letting us know how important bike share services are in their day-to-day lives.

Are you a bike share worker or use bike share to commute? Let us know by filling out the survey 🟪🚲🟨
