The provincial government with this bill continues its arbitrary raiding of municipal representation. The people of Toronto and their duly elected representatives--elected under a system the Premier saw fitting enough to create for them with no consultation or heed--have chosen a path that includes more safe infrastructure for cyclists.

The provisions in Bill 212 which deal with bike lanes make up a tiny fraction of the Bill's text, which is reflective of the lack of care that the Premier has shown for facts and evidence regarding the source of vehicle traffic congestion in Toronto.

This Bill tramples on the rights, safety, and livelihoods of Ontarians and I strongly object to its provisions about bike lanes, as well as its trampling of environmental protection measures regarding the proposed highway 413.
