I cycle, drive, walk and use transit in Toronto. The bike lanes on Bloor are an essentially biking commuting artery for me. If I did not have access to those bikes lanes I would likely be driving adding more driving congestion rather than decreasing the congestion. The evidence bears this out and demonstrates that cycling infrastructure helps to convert vehicular traffic to cycling traffic which ultimately will make the city easier for all to get around. The answer to the GTA gridlock problem is NOT to eliminate bike lanes. I strongly oppose Bill 212.

Also, there is absolutely no excuse for removing the need for environmental assessments for the 413 project and I have grave concerns around the province's ploy for power to expropriate land. This is deeply concerning.
