The events that have lead up to this are truly terrible but it is great to see people gathering in support of safer streets.

    Not that long ago, in Montreal, someone manage to hit a school crossing guard… Also around the same time a kid Ukrainian refugy died from a car collision in a school zone…

    Here the majority of citizen wants speed bumps and chicanes to slow down cars. The main opposition comes from firemens (chicanes because their firetrucks are huge and speed bumps because it slows them down and I think smaller truck would have to be imported from Europe and would be expensive) and plowing operations (in Montreal every street gets plowed ~1/week for 3 months a year). It’s very legitimate reason. I which a good solution came up
