This is the least thought out legislation the Ontario PCs have come up with yet. How can you present this blatant overstep into the Municipal realm when it is not the Province's jurisdiction? There have been countless studies on how bike lanes do not cause an increase in congestion, and actually result in the exact opposite! The problem for congestion in cities (let's be serious this is just a battle on Toronto) is not bike lanes, it is constant development, the OL shutting down main thoroughfares through the city, the Gardiner works, and other Provincial works that have impacted the streets of Toronto. The Province needs to focus on things that really matter, not taking away something that keep people safe. I will refer you all to the TVO 'blind date' that our Premier took part in with Singh where he blatantly says that you are not safe when you are not in a bike lane. Just because none of Ford's conservative voters ride bikes in the city of Toronto, it does not mean that people won't get hurt or killed without proper bike infrastructure. I am so against this legislation and I know for a fact any educated person is too. Keep to your provincial mandate, Ford.
