I am not sure what was more stressful, that game or the budget meetings this year.

Thanks Lanrick interesting research project and hopefully a model for other communities. So glad the hockey game ended before you got to the important stuff.

I am a 22 yo neurodivergent LGBTQ+ unemployed senior in college who have to take my degree online because itโ€™s cheaper. I have a payment due on March 5th thatโ€™s $583.76. Please donate to make ends meets, so my classes wonโ€™t be dropped.

Thank you. ๐Ÿ’ธ๐Ÿ’•

7/ If we actually care about vulnerable road users, the solution is simple: maintain infrastructure properly for everyone, all year long.

6/ โ€œI didnโ€™t see any cyclistsโ€ is not data. Winter riders exist. Shift workers exist. People without cars exist. (there is actual data)

19.02.2026 17:26 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

5/ Closing bike lanes also does not meaningfully save money. Plows are already out. Snow still needs clearing. The real cost comes later when safety drops and we rebuild what worked.

19.02.2026 17:26 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

4/ Removing bike lanes does not create accessibility. It creates faster traffic and more dangerous streets. Personal parking inconvenience is not transportation policy. Cities cannot be redesigned around individual drop offs.

19.02.2026 17:26 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

3/ The accessibility argument also falls apart. Protected bike lanes slow traffic and add space between moving cars and sidewalks. That helps seniors, mobility device users, and anyone moving at human speed.

19.02.2026 17:26 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

2/ If a bike lane is buried under snow and boxed in by ice, that is not proof nobody bikes. That is proof it was cleared badly. Make infrastructure unusable and people stop using it. That is a maintenance failure.

1/ Someone suggested closing bike lanes for the winter because they โ€œhavenโ€™t seen a bike since November.โ€ Letโ€™s unpack that.

Reality check. ODSP max is $1,368 a month, roughly 60% below the poverty line. After rent, the math is brutal.
If you can help or RT, it matters.

Thank you for this chance. Feeling rather drained and tired. Currently on job hunting hiatus for my health. But still trying to earn money for pass due bills via adoptables and ebay. Will get back to adoptables in a bit.
