As Thunder Bay, Ont. grapples with an unprecedentedly high tax levy on the table, pre-budget public deputations to council shared a common theme: transit. From waterfront trails to active transportation and reduced rates for city transit passes, plights to make the city more accessible were heard repeated. But if the tax levy is to be reduced, cuts will have to come from somewhere.
As the municipal election looms, a group of passionate Thunder Bay cyclists gathered Monday afternoon with hopes of boosting awareness around active transportation and the role it can play in the city.
