West Pacific: How We Move

Electric Vehicle Show, Roundhouse.

The wave begins.  From day to day, the arrival of the electric scooter is visible, as more and more appear on the streets, bikeways and sidewalks.  In the face of disruptive technology, we are as usual in no way prepared, still maintaining the illusion that their use is dependent on their legality.

This week we’re joined by Gordon Price, former Vancouver City Council member and former director of The City Program at Simon Fraser University. Gordon talks about Vancouver’s historical importance as well as its future. We chat about transport, the great west coast melting pot, and what folks should check out if they go visit the city.
