Streets Are For People: The Petition
by Lloyd Alter, Toronto 
on 04.10.08
The tree-hugging, car-hating, bike-riding, transit-loving contingent of our readership should join the 4,000 who have already signed the "petition-car" that is being rolled to the Legislature in Ontario via a parade on Earth Day. It carries the message:
“We the undersigned do hereby demand that not one more dollar go to promote, support, or perpetuate car culture. We want bike lanes, public transit and a train system. We want our public space back. We want local food, clean air, sustainable industry, a liveable future for our children, and an end to oil wars. We want to dance in the street. We want a government that values life over money.”
You can also do it online here. ::Streets are for People via ::Spacing
Last September this car had way fewer signatures on Car Free Day.

Only 4,000? That's sad, we need 40,000, or even 400,000. I'll sign, and post a link.
Hi y'all,
Please be sure to check out and sign (if so inclined) our own petition.
