Holy bike shedding batman. I can't comprehend our inability to focus on the important things. Toronto's Port Lands need to be revitalized [1]:
> Waterfront Toronto has received $1.25 billion to clean up and protect the Port Lands. Federal, Provincial and City financial contributions cover the total costs.
> ...nearly a century ago the Don Valley became heavily industrialized and the river was re-routed to enter the lake into a concrete channel. The new project is intended to create a new opening for the Don River.
Spend some time in Google Maps [2] and explain to me why this revitalization project has to be framed in terms of smart neighbourhoods, affordable housing, and digital privacy. The plan only has to be slightly smarter than 100% condos which seems to be the default for Toronto waterfront development.
