Two years later we are still waiting for Montague's "studies", while we count another dead pedestrian on our roads.
Our hearts go out to the victim's friends and family.

We're not surprised because we know this intersection is dangerous. Indeed, it's one where we asked for a red light & speed camera based on evidence back in 2023. Unfortunately @BrianVMontague killed this motion and asked for "more study" instead. (2/3)

As we learn the tragic news of Vancouver's 10th pedestrian fatality of 2025 (not including another 11 at Lapu Lapu), we are again dismayed but not surprised to see the location. This happened at Victoria Dr & E 12th. (1/3)
