So. To try to use controversy and #bikelash to distract from the Centurion data breach and UCP electoral boundary gerrymandering scandals, the UCP are rolling out anti-bicycle legislation on Monday.
Insiders say it will use the #Notwithstanding Clause to circumvent the supreme court ruling that prevented Ford from ripping out bike lanes in Ontario.
Talk about low-bar callous disregard for safety: literally throwing people (kids!) in front of buses (& trucks). All to distract us from UCP perfidity.
We won't take the bait.
We will take the lane.
We'll stay calm, deflect back to #Centurion breach of 2.9M Albertans' privacy, the election boundary #gerrymandering, the UCP-fomented attacks on Canadian confederation, and pedal on.

On Sunday, as I wait for Monday to learn the extent of the Ab UCP's latest legislative overreach into Municipal Affairs, and attempt to farm bikelash so as to distract from their gerrymandering and the Centurion project, I am reminded that Nadine at @Slashgraphics has made a T-shirt we'll all need as, instead of taking their bait, we take the lane: https://www.slashgraphics.com/bikeology/p/bikeology-unisex-tshirt-bike-lane #biketooter #Abpoli
