This promotion of bike usage is NOT a new concept - and the real proof will be how the Public Health folks react to the now-c. 16-month old part of the TaketheTooker study/report where PH was asked to report on establishing a clean air corridor during smog alerts on Bloor St. It's been kinda sidelined - we don't want to have anything controversial now, but they're a bunch of overpaid hypocrites if they don't actually do something real to cut the searial killer air, and having a Bloor smog day bikeway is one very tangible step that is so far not being taken. The PH joining in offering a car for a no-smoking campign does tend to mean they're on the "carrupt" side.
Dr. David McKeown, Toronto Officer of health wants the city to help people bike, walk, or take tranist to improve air quality.
