Wayne Scott 


Wayne Scott was a legendary Toronto bike messenger, bike activist, musician and poet . He is respected and famous for his tireless advocacy. He is most famous for his almost 20 year battle with Revenue Canada to allow foot and bike messengers to treat the extra food they require as fuel for income tax purposes. The battle took a financial and emotional toll on Wayne but he never quit. What most people don’t know is that as it became clearer and clearer to Revenue Canada that Wayne would take his fight wherever he could they came to him with a settlement offer. Revenue Canada offered to give Wayne everything he asked for on the condition that it apply only to him. No other foot or bicycle messenger would benefit from his fight and his victory. Wayne rejected their offer and fought his case all of the way to the Supreme Court. He won. He changed the country. He changed the law. He changed the mindset of people toward active transportation.Today all foot and bike messengers in Canada are permitted to deduct (without receipts) $17.50 per day, which is about $4,200 per year for the extra food they require as fuel to perform their jobs.

Wayne spent years working with the Sheppard family fighting for justice for Darcy Allan Sheppard who was intentionally attacked and killed by Michael Bryant, the former Attorney General for Ontario. He was one of the the founders of the Toronto Hoof and Cycle Courier Coalition and also HOOF&CYCLE. He was a former Chair of the Toronto Pedestrian Committee and in 2003 he was the recipient of the Markus Cook Award for services to the worldwide messenger community.

Imagine this city without bikes. Imagine this city with few places to walk safely. Imagine this city without clean air to breathe. That is Toronto without Wayne Scott. He is woven into this city, its people and its future.  Every memory of Wayne begins and ends with his contagious smile and his undefeated spirit. Those aren’t just words. That is Wayne. I miss him so much already. He is my hero, my inspiration and my dear friend.

Wayne didn’t like it when I called him my mentor. He felt like it separated him. He would correct me to say partner and friend but he was my mentor too. I would not be the person I am without him. I want to say Rest In Peace my friend but I know you are smiling when you hear that because you are not finished with me or this city. You are not finished with us. You have inspired so many who have gone on to inspire more of us. When we would talk about traffic and infrastructure Wayne would always begin with the reminder that we are all pedestrians. Of course he was right but now we are all Wayne Scott too as we continue his work and benefit from his inspiration.

The last time I saw Wayne we sat on his front porch and reminisced about riding bikes in Toronto in the 80’s and 90’s. We laughed that in winter virtually the only cyclists on the road were bike messengers. And we smiled at how much better things were today.
I said to him “times really have changed!”

Wayne stopped me and said “No times didn’t change. We changed the times.”

I knew exactly what he meant. When Wayne said “we” he meant all of the cycling groups, activists and every day cyclists who fought for over 30 years and more. Sometimes there were setbacks and sometimes progress was slow but it is happening. And I’m sure that’s what Wayne was always thinking when he said “Onward!”

When Dr. King said “the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice” he  wasn’t saying that the bend toward justice occurs naturally. He knew all too well that it was people like himself, fighting and working endlessly to bend that arc.

And that was Wayne too. He was always working to bend that arc. Wayne was always in the streets standing up for just causes. He was always down at City Hall making deputations and meeting with councillors to change the times . He was holding press conferences to draw attention to cause that needed attention.

And often there was no victory only a slight bend in the arc, only a tiny change or a simple opportunity to chase that change. I worked with Wayne on many, many issues. Some people would question the point. How can we ever win? But for Wayne winning was only a matter of time. He knew it would happen just not when it would happen. That’s why Wayne’s response to victories and defeats was always the same. Onward! He knew the arc was bending and he was changing the times. His message was let’s get on with it because we have a destination to reach.

Wayne isn’t physically here but he is definitely here. His voice is everywhere. His inspiration is never ending and his message continues to resonate. Let’s keep working to bend that arc and change our times. As Wayne would say - ONWARD! - Joe Hendry

In memoriam: Cycling advocate Wayne Scott
Longtime champion of cycling worked tirelessly to improve street safety and the labour conditions of bike couriers

BY ALBERT KOEHL AND ALLAN SHEPPARD

Feb 14, 2021

Wayne Scott never shied away from a fight, whatever the odds – and as a pedestrian and cycling advocate in Toronto the odds were usually bad, or worse.

Wayne died late last month from a long battle with cancer that would slowly deprive him of the baritone voice that got audiences to take notice. His illness would also deprive him of his ability to ride his cherished cargo bike.

After turning 30 and ending his rock and roll career in the early 1980s, Wayne became a bike courier after seeing a “Bike Messengers Wanted” sign in an office window. “I can do that,” he decided, putting aside his plans to become a graphic designer. And so began his decades-long battles to improve the working conditions of couriers.

In 1982, Wayne challenged the Canada Revenue Agency’s discriminatory practice of denying foot and bike couriers the right to deduct the cost of food and drink that fueled their bodies – even though car-reliant couriers could deduct the gasoline that fed their vehicles. In 1998, he emerged from an appeal court with a precedent-setting decision that accepted his “food as fuel” argument. “The little guy finally won one,” marvelled a local courier at the time.

In the intervening years, Wayne led a fight for compensation for workplace injuries. In 1996, he led a charge by couriers to improve dangerous conditions at a delivery entrance to Metro Hall. Wayne and his colleagues then succeeded in converting a proposal to license couriers into the city’s first annual “Messenger Appreciation Day” in 1997, celebrating couriers for their positive contribution to commerce, air quality, and the climate.

Wayne formed the HOOF&CYCLE Active Transport Workers Guild in 2005, reviving a similar organization he helped create a decade earlier. HOOF&CYCLE (Wayne always insisted on the capitalization) engaged in a variety of road safety initiatives, including the successful call to Ontario’s Chief Coroner for a review of pedestrian and cyclist deaths. As a former Toronto Cycling Ambassador, Wayne brought the city before the Ontario Labour Relations Board in 2010, alleging a failure to provide a safe workplace, namely city streets. (The case was dismissed, albeit on a curious technical interpretation.) .... more

 "I have already overstayed my welcome. I am starting to get on my own nerves." Alan Wayne Scott. December 16, 1950 - January 27, 2021.
My best friend left us today. While his physical body has succumbed to an eight-year battle with tongue cancer, his voice has only grown louder. He didn't leave quietly. He lived each day out here on these streets to their fullest. He shared and documented his art, poetry, songs, politics, activism and philosophies. He inspired and challenged all who came within his contact. No one was left unaffected. He raised the bar impossibly high. I admire the shit out of him and am an extremely lucky individual to have grown up within his presence.

 Named after equal parts Van Pelt and Pauling, I am a case study on the nature vs. nurture debate. I did not grow up with him on a daily basis, yet it is clear that no one has shaped who I am today more than Wayne. He shared music, film, art, and sports with me from a very young age. I looked forward to visiting him as often as possible under the bright lights and in the big city of Toronto during the ‘80s. It never fazed me that we once took a taxi over 100 kilometres just to get there. I yearned to be around his energy, spontaneity, and influence. I didn't care if we were both sleeping on his friend's couch or crashing at his new girlfriend's house (the walls of which he had recently used as his canvas). He bought me art supplies at an age when I'd rather be eating them than creating with them. I was amused by stories of burning his high school diploma on campus, and fascinated by tales of Rochdale College. We watched hours of Looney Tunes, followed by screenings of Being There and Paris,Texas. We'd go record shopping on Yonge Street where he used to work. He took me to see Miles Davis in utero, my first stadium concert at the CNE, and snuck me into the Apocalypse Club underage. We went to see the Maple Leafs at the Gardens and the Blue Jays at Exhibition Stadium. I smoked my first joint with him, and to this day his fridge is still stocked with Molson Stock Ale in anticipation of me coming over. I never referred to him as "dad" growing up, but I always knew he was my father – and ultimately he was so much more to me than that. He was and always will be a legend to me. My guts ache as this chapter closes but a new found sense of calm has come over me knowing his exit was of his own accord. The conversations may have paused, but their messages ring louder than ever and will be with me for my duration. Nothing has been lost, everything has transformed.

The best part of moving to Toronto a decade ago has been living in the same city with him and his wife, Katherine, for the first time since birth. Catching up on 50 years of stories with Murielle, Julian, Kirin, and me has been monumental for all involved. They were raw, educating, entertaining, and never-ending. Recently I just found out that my great-grandfather, the Rev. Dr. James M. Finlay, was born in Parkdale – another subtle reminder that Toronto has always been home.

Last November, I secured an advance screener of the then-upcoming Frank Zappa doc. It was his "Make-A-Wish" request. Together, we sat in silence, hands clasped and enjoyed what would be our final screening together. I'm convinced that afternoon helped push him through the past few months before making his way beyond his obsessions of the past 70 years.
 I love you dad.  Onward. Xo – Linus Booth

Rest in Peace Alan Wayne Scott you will be missed.  You made the city a better place to live in, you made people around you want to excel and you will be missed, so very much. – Derek Chadbourne

Thanks, indeed, for posting Derek Chadbourne. I can only add what I shared with those gathered at the tenth and final Darcy Allan Sheppard memorial gathering in 2019: The world is uncertain about who first said, "Be the change you want to see in the world." Some say Gandhi, others not. But those who knew or were touched by Wayne know that he was, perhaps not the first but one of the best, to live that aphorism and inspire others to follow his lead. He will be missed, but not forgotten. RIP. – Allan Sheppard

An amazing man and friend. He will be so missed. Save me a place in heaven Mr. Scott. Love you – Robbie Rox


Rest in peace, Allan Wayne Scott aka "Scunny". Words cannot describe the size of your heart, love and passion for your family and friends and your utter commitment for safe passage in your beloved city. Rest in peace dear old friend. “A beam in darkness: let it grow.” AT – Nick Kovats

Alan Wayne Scott was an absolute pleasure to have befriended over the years.  A big heart, big smile, wonderful human being.  Thank you for always being there for all of us! – Ryan Walsh

He gave me strength and inspired me to be me, my deepest condolences to his family, rest in peace , as you were/ and still are such a peaceful person ❤ - Chissy Sonier

Currently overwhelmed and comforted by the outpouring of love and support. Thank you to all friends, family and strangers for reaching out and sharing your stories.  Wild to note that this article was published early yesterday morning as I was preparing to meet my dad at home to aid him with his own medically assisted death. Never missing a beat, he apologized for the 8:30am "procedure" but liked the fact that it wouldn't "drag out anybody's day unnecessarily."More words soon. xo
'His body wrecked... my father insisted that his death, like his life, was his to control. It felt both cruel and kind that his “condition,” as he called it, spared his mind...' – Linus Booth

Wayne


So sad to wake to the news of the passing of Alan Wayne Scott aka Scunny. An intrepid bicycle and alternative transportation activist, a lover of making and listening to music and an absolute gem of a human among many things. Your battle was long. Now you rest. It was an honour and a pleasure sir. Keep on pedaling in the next journey!
RIP . – Geoff MacBride

He was always a man of great determination and fighting spirit for change and justice so will surely be blessed on his final ride into what's beyond this life , my sincere condolences to his beautiful family and many friends and colleagues 🇨🇦⚖️🙏❤️🥃🥃 – Brian McEwan

Miss you already, Alan Wayne Scott - Rest In Peace. I met Scunny at some bike event somewhere, I want to say it was the Jarvis bike lane removal, but I can't quite remember.
Soon after, I realized I already knew of him from his victory on the tax code. When all the messengers and couriers file that $17.50/day deduction for "Food As Fuel" - that's one of his legacies.
I'm better for having known you. You're an inspiration. – Andy Inkster

Yesterday Toronto lost an elder statesman of the bike community, Alan Wayne Scott, who passed away after a long battle with cancer. He will forever be remembered for winning a court case “Food as Fuel” that gave bike messengers the right to deduct $17.50 a day as a business expense. He was a constant presence at bike advocacy events. He was a familiar face at PWIC, - Jo Koga

Alan Wayne Scott; not just another one of Toronto’s close-knit messenger family gone. Loved and already missed by many.
-He was the model of truly sustainable urban transportation. Walked the walk- Literally. Every. Day.
- A fierce opponent of the car-dependent design the city turned itself into. Taking city planners, politicians, designers and ad-executives to task. Many times a step ahead.
- A champion of justice for those abandoned by our corrupt system of justice, most notably Darcy Allen Sheppard. Taking on a renowned effort to see justice served to these seemingly untouchable political elites.
- A consummate advocate for the rights of all cyclists to safe streets.
- He fought with Revenue Canada for almost a decade with a stern, but fair demeanour and won the battle for human powered occupations to claim Food-as-Fuel.
...there’s so much more to Wayne Scott that I will leave for others to list. My only hope is that the fight within him, will pass onto us all as we see our immediate environments changing all around us. A rather blank canvas stands before us as we rebuild what we have lost, and shore up our human living arrangements so that we don’t get so defeated next time a pandemic comes to town.
Rest In Peace Wayne; “ONWARD”!!! – Mike McGill


Wow. Alan Wayne Scott, what do you say about a man who was so inspiring and so personable? It was a pleasure to know you. #RIP – Sonia Serba

I'm not even sure where one could possibly begin when speaking about Alan Wayne Scott. What an epic life lived. RIP,  Sir. I hope there are lilacs everywhere, now. - Michele Gerow

Wayne

Wayne Scott was an activist, a musician and a poet. His activism played a large role in his poetry and music. When he received a grant to make an album he called his band the “Difficult Musicians” inspired by a woman in Mayor Mel Lastman’s office who once told him over the phone, “Mr. Scott, sometimes I think you just call this office to be difficult.“


This one hurts. Said goodbye to one of my biggest inspirations. My biggest supporter. I’ve never felt so much love and acceptance from one person. Growing up, I was constantly inspired by you, and always will be. You taught me what it means to truly be passionate about something. From music, to film, to artwork, I am so thankful for your influence on me. I’ll always remember the Dufferin Mall trips. Sitting in the movie theatre to see the newest Pixar movie. Your immense patience when Julian and I spent hours making stupid videos on your computer. All the art exhibits, Pho trips, and backyard visits. These memories, and more will stick with me forever. I’ll miss you like crazy. But I know you’re probably up there chatting with Zappa. Rest in peace to my kick-ass grandfather. I love you Umpa, OXO. - Kirin Booth


After eight years fighting tongue cancer, Alan Wayne Scott has left us. He and I hit it off immediately fifty years ago, give or take, when we met at the Roxy.
Wayne was one of Toronto's most inspiring activists. HIs life is well documented and most appreciated. He fought for cleaner air, pedestrian space, fewer cars and more bikes. He won a HUGE court case (FOOD AS FUEL) against Revenue Canada whereby bike messengers won the right to deduct $17.50 (one extra meal a day) as a business expense. He was instrumental in implementing more and safer bike lanes. He co-founded the non-motorized messengers' guild, HOOF & CYCLE, he won international awards from the cyclist community. He advocated on behalf of fellow courier Darcy Allan Sheppard who was run down (killed) by politician/lawyer Michael Bryant because Wayne believed the case was never properly investigated or charged. He was an artist and adored the musical families known as Zappa, Feat and our own Robbie Rox. But that only scratches the surface.  Wayne, you are to be admired by all. Toronto owes you ten monuments. You made a difference. I will never forget you. I'm so glad we had such a lasting love for each other. I'm glad you're now in comfort. My thoughts go out to everyone who loved you. – Gary Topp


Wayne


In 2007 I had Michael Pickett for a house concert to celebrate my birthday. We were talking about my obsession with Frank Zappa and he told me about a friend of his who was also a bit of a fanatic. Alan Wayne Scott, better known as Scunyun or Scunny and I became instant friends and fast Facebook mates. We saw each other away from online many times as we shared a love of a particular style of music. I have very few friends who appreciate Frank Zappa's music like he did. He had a lifelong musical journey and I met some of his cohorts through assimilation (The Difficult Musicians were very deserving of the name 😂).

He was a musician, graphic artist, Green Party candidate and enjoyed busking the streets of Toronto. He spent his life as a bicycle courier and never had a car or licence and was an avid proponent of bike rights. This spread to environmental concerns and standing up for our rights as citizens of planet Earth.
About 8 years ago he began a battle with tongue cancer that would have ended anyone else's will very early. But Scunny was a fighter. What he went through was unbelievable. I'm sure there were a lot of things I didn't know about Scunny, but I had so much respect for him. He was so upbeat all the time on social media you would never have known what he had to endure. I can't stress enough the admiration I had for that man.

Today his battle ended. I'm so sorry Scunny. I'll miss you and have a Stock Ale in your honour. We'll see you out on the street. Frank will welcome a keytar player to his ever increasing band in the sky.
P.S. I'm not looking for comments or condolences as I know he wouldn't either. I just want to let you know about my friend who left us so you'll have a small appreciation of who he was. ❤ - Nick Harding


When I first started my journey as a cycling advocate, Wayne was my biggest supporter.  He was never judgmental to my ignorance on certain issues and spoke to me as an equal rather than a newbie, he knew how important it was to pass along his knowledge.  He mentored many, educated hundreds with his powerful words (and songs) and made real, impactful and permanent change.  If you're a bike courier, you have this guy to thank.  He is just simply, a total badass and I am so glad to have known him.   Ride peacefully Scunyun, your ride is here.  Until we meet again, we'll be out here on the street, doin what we know is just and right.  ❤  PS. I REALLY hope you get to meet Zappa. – Melissa Dowrie

The riderless trike. Here's a symbol for this day, the beginning of the time without Alan Wayne. He was present and active last summer at the BLM Mass Ride, and took a picture of his own "absence." I saw him only at a distance, but loved this view. Rest in peace, friend. You have earned your fine self a vacation. – Alan Gasser

The mightiest warrior ever to rise from the Toronto Bike Courier community has fought his final battle. #fuckcancer.
Alan Wayne Scott left more than a couple of dents in the universe that is the streets of Toronto. "Scunny" took the big issues all the way, and got measurable results.
The mighty gathering of souls that should really be happening in Wayne's honour obviously cannot happen in real time. Some day. For today, once I have my wits about me, I will go out and bellow loudly at the sky in the traditional Klingon fashion, as a warning to Suto'vo'qor that a warrior is about to arrive. – Pete Gray

A father figure of ARC, Alan Wayne Scott, died today from his battle with cancer. This is so sad to announce, one of Toronto's great cycling activists, Alan Wayne "Scunny" Scott has died. From the 1980s forward, he was involved in Toronto's cycling courier community. He became a City of Toronto Bike Ambassador and was THE elder statesman of cycling advocacy in this city. May his memory go on forever. A piece of my soul died tonight. – Joey Schwartz

He was dedicated to everyone of us ... he lives in every one of us ... be at peace now old friend – Keith Robinson




Wayne Scott Jack Layton

I have a story about Wayne Scott that always made me smile. Bike messengers are a wide and diverse group. The topic of sponsorship and advertising can be a divisive discussion. Many messengers don’t like taking money from unrelated corporations because they refuse to advertise for them. On the other hand messengers don’t have a lot of extra money to spend on things like hundreds of t-shirts for their friends.
At the second annual Messenger Appreciation Day in 1998 we wanted to have a bigger celebration at the courier bar, “Breadspreads”, at Yonge and Temperance. The city paid for a breakfast and closed Temperance Street. Jack Layton came down to make presentations to Wayne and the Toronto Hoof and Cycle Courier Coalition and Sarah Hood convinced business’s around downtown to give messengers free treats and drinks all day long.
Wayne wanted to give out free t-shirts to every messenger in the city but that can be expensive. He approached radio station Q-107 and they agreed to come down and broadcast from a van in front of Spreads that morning and they also paid for about 300 t-shirts on the condition that their logo appear on the t-shirts. Wayne told them he would be happy to put their logo on the sleeve of the shirts so they would be seen all over the city.
What Wayne didn’t tell them is that he and many other messengers often tore the sleeves off of their t-shirts because they get hotter riding around in sleeves. The t-shirts arrived at the breakfast so it was too late for Wayne to cut off his sleeves but if you look closely at the picture of Jack Layton with Wayne you will see the logo on the sleeve has been blurred out.
Wayne made the same agreement with the city of Toronto to have their logo displayed on the sleeves of his 2003 and 2005 Messenger Appreciation t-shirts. Wayne often wore his sleeveless version every where right up until he passed away.


I love this picture of Wayne on the tandem statue of Jack Layton. I was on the cycling committee that Jack Layton chaired after the amalgamation of the Toronto mega city. He would politely recognize me when I saw him at city hall for other reasons. But when I was with Wayne, Jack Layton would walk across the floor smiling to shake his hand and thank him for his work or coming to make a deputation.
All of Toronto’s mayor’s and most of the councillors knew Wayne. In the 1990’s he would just walk in to their offices and ask to speak to them. He would often be sitting with them within a few minutes. In later years he would call them and make an appointment. Before Rob Ford passed away he made plans with Wayne to tour some areas that were challenging and dangerous for cyclists. Ford was no fan of cyclists but Wayne could at least persuade him to listen.
Wayne was a true activist. He loved the action part of activist meaning he didn’t always have the patience for the slow movement of organizations and groups. While groups were planning action and strategy to gain some attention or influence, Wayne would have already met with the Mayor or an MPP or whoever he thought could influence change. He was respectful of their time and viewpoints but they also knew he was quite comfortable going to the media or the courts if they were his only options. And he often went that route too. - Joe Hendry


Wayne

At times I had wondered if Wayne was shouting into the void. But if I've learned anything this week, it's that his voice was heard loud and clear throughout various communities in Toronto and beyond. You never really know how far one's influence has reached until they're gone.

The tributes that are being shared have been incredibly important in aiding to work through the immediate hole that has been left by his physical departure. Me and our family are hearing everything and truly appreciate your words. Time to walk this walk a little taller. – Linus Booth
