Once again this government…

Once again this government is using a red herring issue, bike lanes, to mask the real intent of the bill which is to fast track Hwy 413. I would remind the government that despite having a majority in the house, the majority did not vote for them.
Apparently, the fast tracking is because there is a full agenda for the legislature. Why did you take such a long summer break? Perhaps the intention is to muzzle democracy.
The premier suggests that there is no need for further environmental studies because they have been going on for 30 years. A lot has happened in 30 years. We know a lot more about the fragility of our ecosystem. We have the Greenbelt and the Oak Ridges Moraine for a reason.
Also, a lot more is understood about traffic. The more roads, the more cars. Hwy 413 will not end gridlock. It will encourage more. It will encourage sprawl which benefits developers but doesn't help people looking for affordable housing close to where they work. All those people will be in their cars going to work. Never mind the increased carbon footprint.
As for the bike lanes making gridlock worse has the government considered parked cars as impediments to traffic flow?
