Paris Mayor: I want a city with less cars. Perhaps it's controversial, but I think I'm on the right side of history. I had lobbyists from car companies threaten me in my own office.

Montreal mayor Valerie Plante has the same story… Made the city much better for the majority of citizens but got tons of hate from the minority of drivers in the city plus the suburbanites who couldn’t find a parking spot on the weekends

Unfortunately she is not seeking re-election due to the hate she gets from a very vocal minority of the ciitizens and the suburbanites who arent even technically citizens in montreal
