The pedestrianized corridors on Mont-Royal Ave, Rue Wellington, and Rue Ste-Catherine in Montreal are truly amazing. Mont-Royal Ave on the random Thursday afternoon was more vibrant than I have ever seen Carytown outside of the Watermelon Festival. #CarsRuinCarytown #CarsRuinCities #RVA https://www.iheart.com/podcast/962-moore-in-the-morning-with-73948749/episode/madeleine-bonsma-fisher-university-of-toronto-122604362/

In Montréal on vacation with the family and getting around is just so much more pleasant than anywhere in the States. Vibrant car-free neighborhoods, bike lanes everywhere, a Metro that runs with frequency - really proof of #CarsRuinCities. Also, it's not nearly as hot as at home and it feels amazing
Recently the wall surrounding the parking lot at my local grocery store was smashed because someone didn’t know how to park. Another way to show that #CarsRuinCities. I’ve never seen someone accidentally break a brick wall when parking their bike.
I picked up a few cases of drinks at the store today. My trusty cargo #ebike got it all home easily. No car required.

Giving a hearty "#BanCars" from my bike to the gentleman trying to cross at the crosswalk without a traffic light.

The car #traffic that came into view as I crested a hill on my morning commute was a sharp contrast to the surroundings of the pleasant #greenway I had been on.
#Cars--and the way we bend over backwards to cater to them--really do ruin everything.

THAT'S my 'car'.
It's fun, fast, fume-free and fighting climate change.

This episode of @TheWarOnCars with @ianwalker from @SwanseaUni is excellent.
Reflecting on his recent work on "motonormativity" - how car culture is so deeply established that we can't even see it.

You might be thinking "oh, how long do parked cars actually hold up the buses?" and the answer is: long enough for someone cycling to do this, and leave the bus in the dust... https://twitter.com/david_mccraw/status/1617239651407826945

how does that saying go? #carsruincities and stunningly beautiful sleepy villages in the colombian andes that can be walked across in 15 minutes? #cycling #urbanism

My #waroncars stickers came in the mail yesterday. It looks good on my laptop next to the #RadPowerBikes sticker. Where should I put the rest? Hopefully my #carsRuinCities stickers arrive as promptly. Looking forward to the discussions these stickers create.

@katnjiapus this is part of the reason some folks are using #carsRuinCities.
Acabo de cruzarme con 11 +1 coche mal estacionados (el +1 es porque voy a ser indulgente con el que llevaba una chapa para minusvalido) en un rango de 3 manzanas... Es alucinante lo normalizado que está que los coches hagan lo que les da la gana #CarsRuinCities
