      It worked for Premier doug ford (kinda like a governor) in Ontario, whom also ran on “strong mayor powers”. You know strong powers like the province telling you its illegal to build bike lanes in your city for your constituents.

      Most Americans are incapable of seeing the big picture. They’ll drive to the polling station cursing about all the bicyclists in the road, vote against bike lanes “because I don’t use them”, and drive home still cursing about all the bicyclists in the road. They could have been on a bike path out of your way, you know!
