I’m strongly opposed to this legislation.

I’m tired of cyclists being used as scapegoats for gridlock. Our government should not be legislating based on false premises.

It is a fact that the only way to reduce congestion is for there to be less cars on the road, which means investment in other more efficient forms of transportation is needed as opposed to yet another highway - as if the 407 isn’t underutilized - and discouraging the use of alternate modes of transportation.

Let’s not forget that it’s dangerous for cyclists to share the road with cars, and when you build good bike lanes - ones that are safe and provide easy access to destinations - they will be used.

This is backwards even by PC standards; it’s red tape. Let’s try some real solutions instead.
