Urban kchoze

Just a blog about urban and transport issues. It started as an English translation of my French-language blog "kchoze urbaine", though now I'm primarily writing in English to reach a wider audience. Why the name? "Chose urbaine" in French means literally "urban thing". Why "kchoze" instead of "chose"? Because, as says Linkara, poor literacy is kewl. I'm a traffic engineer (the irony!) from Québec, I have no urbanist formation, this is only my musings and my opinions.
