As a recreational cyclist, and motorist, and pedestrian, I strongly oppose the framework for the bike lanes and the highway 413 in its current form.
Many residents in the city requires more options for transportation - mopeds, scooters, mobility scooter, and bikes will experience faster speed for most bicycle lanes than having them without in places where they are already are well studied. We have been taught that driving is a privilege. This regulation proposal falls counter to that.
However, this does make me wonder if there will be bicycle lanes parallel with the limited access expressway systems?

Highway 413 - multiple sources show that this only benefits a few, and time savings are not yet significant. This will also cross through known indigenous artifacts, which would be better as a interpretative site or community hub, instead of another highway.
See a small excerpt of what the media is saying about the provinces' plans: Narwhal. https://thenarwhal.ca/ontario-highway-413-bill-explainer/
The Globe & mail. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-ontario-to-exempt-planne…

Proceeding with most of these plans in its current form as a resident in a midsized city who also visit small towns is not beneficial with my vision and plans except those who are already privileged to begin with.
