People expect their elected officials to be working when crisis hits. That’s why we are ready to get back to work and have called for an immediate recall of the legislature. Sadly the Sask Party has decided the opposite, pushing our session by two weeks. #skpoli #sask

Today’s inspiring workshop was filled with meaningful discussions about what professionals need to understand about the needs of an important, influential and frequently forgotten group—teens! How much more inclusive could our mobility systems and public spaces be if we paid them greater attention?

Education is not a business. The goal of publicly funded education is not finding the cheapest way to warehouse children while their parents work. Public education is the great equalizer, and is an investment in our collective future. It’s worth saving.

City of Saskatoon…please remove this angle parking along 10 St E. near the cheese shop …countless accidents/near accidents, induces traffic clogs in the Broadway intersection and terrible for cyclist safety. (This weird looking parked vehicle was well into the westbound lane on Monday!)

In memory of Donald Shoup, we re-released our 2023 interview with the brilliant, witty and influential scholar. "The High Cost of Free Parking" is a hugely important book and his research has influenced countless planners and advocates around the world. RIP. thewaroncars.org/2025/02/08/r...

Unfortunately the latest concept plan of the new Polytech Institute in Saskatoon shows a campus which seems to completely ignore the new Bus Rapid Transit system being built right beside them. Lost opportunity.

A terrible opinion that makes me angry after Sask teachers sacrificed our time, money, and energy last year specifically. We're not fighting to privatize and privilege. We're fighting for ALL Saskatchewan kids to have a great education because that's our professional responsibility as teachers.

Air pollution has dropped significantly in #Paris in the last 15 years. Mayor @annehidalgo.bsky.social’s leadership has traded car space for green space, safe bike space, kid space.. and traded pollution for people. Good trade.

Winter? That’s still biking season! With the right prep, the ride goes on. Thanks to @albertaecotrust, we’re diving into the wonders (and woes) of winter biking. Our refurbished fleet, now with studded tires from @bpcyclesports, is ready for action. Here’s YER staff testing them in Fish Creek Park!
