Although CMC team member have visited Canada many times and worked with a lot of Canadian professionals and companies, it is always better to have local experts and insight in your own team. We are thrilled to add Karl Saidla to our CMC team!

Karl lives in Ottawa, Canada and works as an independent consultant and researcher. His research explores what policy and political approaches are most likely to help sustain and grow active and sustainable transportation rates. He focusses particularly on Northern European cases given their comparability with his home country’s (i.e., Canada’s) context.

His current research compares the successful bike share systems of Tartu and Helsinki from the perspective of public policy. His previous research compared the promotion of walking, cycling, and public transit use in Ottawa, Canada with Helsinki, Finland, from a political vantage point.

Karl will be joining CMC transport policy team, and as a competitive cross-country skier he is also looking forward to increase independent outdoor play of children and adolescents through Good4Hood –projects and other initiatives.

Welllcome Karl to the CMC team!
