Kate Whitfield, P.Eng., MCIP, RPP

My favourite thing to do through my work is to help represent walking and bicycling as a viable, valuable, and enjoyable part of regular, everyday life. The added joy of a cargo bike ride with my kids is what brings life to what can be a mundane, daily action known as a commute.
