Meanwhile, in Europe and Asia they have publicly run bike shares and they work. We should do the same. That way we can invest in a single bigger network that doesn’t try to nickel and dime us. I don’t understand why we waste so much money on privatization or public-private partnerships even when it makes no economic sense.

I've been seeing more and more scooters left on the sidewalks in Coquitlam and I always wondered if people ran out of paid time or if the scooter ran out of juice. Turns out the website states you can park a scooter on the sidewalk.
