Comment
Bill 212's provision allowing the province to approve or reject municipal decisions regarding bike lanes is inappropriate and unnecessary. Municipal governments are directly accountable to their residents and have a clearer understanding of local needs. By intervening in municipal decisions, the province risks delaying important infrastructure projects and limiting local governments' ability to encourage safe, active transportation. This type of overreach could stifle innovation in urban planning, which should be a key priority as we work toward more sustainable and livable cities.
