“Pedestrians are considered traffic,” writes Ontario Ministry of Transportation spokesman Ajay Woozageer.
That was a most interesting statement - it seems to have two messages - 'pay attention drivers', and then 'look out pedestrians.' The statement was made in response to a Globe and Mail question and answer article on whether cars should (are required to) yield to pedestrians at a crosswalk.
What I so enjoyed about the Toronto Islands was the lack of crosswalks - there are no cars on the Islands. And in Grimsby Beach where the Painted Ladies are, the streets are 'lanes' so narrow they are effectively one-way streets in whichever direction the car is going.
Today's pictures again showcase TBG's Wilket Creek. I was at Grimsby Beach yesterday, and wished for the golds and oranges to reflect in Forty Creek. But alas, there aren't any Autumn colour reflections so far.
