Urban planners worldwide are reimagining their cities to make them more people\u002Dfriendly. The NCC\u0027s move is a small step in that direction.

But here we are with Mark Sutcliffe and Tobi Nussbaum disagreeing publicly over the closure of a section of the Queen Elizabeth Driveway, complete with duelling op-eds in the Ottawa Citizen to make their case, essentially about their transportation visions.Of course, there have been disagreements before over such things as a new bridge over the Ottawa River, which is really an interprovincial issue.

And it’s not just about reducing the carbon footprint. It’s healthier.
