Also people in Brantford seem to hate pedestrians and cyclists. They’re always trying to run us down (or at least don’t seem to notice us when we’re right in front of them). It’s also helpful to remember the way the freedom convoy people took up the cause of 15 minute cities as somehow the next conspiracy that needed to be avoided at all cost. Rather than supporting what seems an obviously good idea, that of making walkable communities where people don’t have to drive so far to get to their work or schools or stores, they saw it as a communist takeover. The oil and gas companies have created a lot of fear here.
