Ingrid Buday, founder of the group No More Noise Toronto, says her launch into pro-quiet activism came during the pandemic, when the emptier-than-normal streets near her west-end home started to sound like a nightly drag race.
The whine of racing motorcycles and the growl of illegally modified mufflers, echoing off nearby underpasses, left her so sleep-deprived she was unable to return to her job in IT as COVID-19 restrictions were lifted.
Good.
