The support for this is so exciting. I am one of the planners on the campaign, and we're blown away by the huge amount of feedback in such a short time.

Our plan is to present the findings of this project to council in the Fall, and so the best thing anyone can do to help is direct people to the campaign page and work to find and share good research on the benefits of bike lanes. Hopefully we can respond to Jackson's old comment: "I am not convinced that there is clamor for bicycle commuter lanes across the city." Clearly the response over the last few days shows that clamor levels are high! Of course the more signatures the better. It would be hard to ignore thousands of comments and signatures!

If people would like to get even more involved we would love some extra help. So far we have a few dozen people on the street team, but would love even more help. Best to email yeswecannon.hamilton@gmail.com so that we can get all the info in one place, and pull people together soon! It may take us a little bit of time to get back to everyone (we are just getting going, and all have day jobs!) but we would really love all the help we can get.
