Are You Ready for 15 Minute Cities? Neither are we! Let's take action NOW. It's time to start the discussion and hold folks accountable so we can end this before it begins. 

A 15-Minute City is a residential urban concept in which most daily necessities can be accomplished by either walking or cycling from residents' homes, ultimately limiting a resident's travel anywhere outside their assigned sectors. Resistance is steadily mounting in test cities such as Oxford (England), as well as parts of Paris and Barcelona; but not yet in our communities.

While many are claiming the point of these “15-Minute Cities” is not to prevent travel outside of the 15-minute zone, when you dig deeper one can easily see there is more to this then we are being told…

Watch the "promo video" for the Toronto 15-Minute City, SMART city plan.

From the Oxford city council site as of March 3, 2023:

"The traffic filters are not physical barriers of any kind and will not be physical road closures. They are simply traffic cameras that can read number plates. 

If a vehicle passes through the filter at certain times of the day, the camera will read the number plate and (if you do not have an exemption or a residents’ permit) you will receive a fine in the post.  

Oxford residents (and residents of some surrounding villages) will be able to apply for a permit to drive through the filters on up to 100 days a year. Residents living in the rest of Oxfordshire will be able to apply for a permit to drive through the filter on up to 25 days a year."

We are starting to see signs of 15-Minute City plans across many communities in Canada through the implementation of bike lane networks (often in high-traffic zones), the closing of side streets to make "community hang-outs" or bike share stations, and traffic reduction by blocking roads with cement barriers. All of these installations are designed to acclimate us to accept road closures, traffic flow reduction and/or speed reduction. 

While these plans may seem innocuous, it may even appear to be a convenient way to structure a community. However, if you dig into the global framework it becomes apparent the real goal is to reduce our consumption, our movement and create a greater level of control over all people than we could possibly imagine.  

Please read through the PDF on C40.org and you will see the aggressive consumption goals for 2030 and 2050, for quick reference see page 20 although the entire PDF is very robust: https://drive.google.com/file/d/136QkpjwnFW5jkFe2_uqzFKRAa2bFN54H/view?usp=sharing

C40 is one of the driving forces for the 15-Minute Cities. What is C40? From their site it states: "C40 is a global network of mayors of the world’s leading cities that are united in action to confront the climate crisis." The cities of Toronto and Montreal are both members of this organization. Toronto joined in 2005 and Montreal in 2016. 

C40 is a network of global partners including ICLEI – International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives, the Global Covenant of Mayors, Carbon Disclosure Project, United Cities and Local Governments, World Resources Institute and World Wildlife Foundation (one of the most offence organizations participating in the global agenda). These global partners are all working toward an impossible "net-zero" carbon emissions. Many of these sites include a list of participating cities, so have a look to see if your community is on the list.

This is really just the tip of the iceberg. There are many NGOs involved and they all roll into the two main organizations spearheading this; the UN https://sdgs.un.org/2030agenda and the WEF https://intelligence.weforum.org/topics/a1Gb0000000LHN7EAO. 

There is good news in all of this... it is a crime to collaborate with foreign entities to create domestic policies that violate Canadian law. It's called treason. Let's not be victims, rather, let's take back our cities by holding those accountable for breach of trust, breach of duty and for attempting to cause us harm by preaching our rights enshrined in the Canadian Bill of Rights!

The future of High Park is in peril as city council is limiting access to the park. High Park closed to vehicles during COVID and since then has continued to be closed on weekends and statutory holidays. Now the City Council has voted to continue the current closure and work towards 365 days a year closure by 2027.
