Does Edmonton City Council give disproportionate attention to pro-bike advocates at daytime meetings?

The two readers split, so this is parked under the rule that GO needs both readers or one GO and one PARK. One reader said GO: Public hearing minutes show who spoke on bike network items, what they argued and whether residents could take part remotely or in writing; whom council 'mainly listens to' can't be measured and will be dropped. The other said NO: No public record measures who council "mainly listens to"; meeting schedules show when hearings happen but not whether council favours one group of speakers over another.
