Why is this provincial government weighing in on municipal affairs?

Why is there a push to go backwards when it's clear that all world-class cities, including Paris, New York, Amsterdam, and countless others have a multitude of bike lanes, to great success?

Adding more car lanes will not decrease gridlock, as has been evidenced through the ever-expanding 401 highway, the QEW and others. Toronto's population is increasing, so we should be providing viable transportation options (mass transit and bike especially) instead of encouraging driving at all times.

This has turned into a culture war instead of what it should be: A discussion about the health of our cities, our citizenry and the future of our infrastructure.
