Strongly opposed to this. As someone who actually lives in and travels around Toronto, rather than just driving in on weekends, the issue is not bike lanes or cyclists, but rather that there are TOO MANY CARS. Traffic is composed of cars, and if you make it more difficult for people to get around without a car, then you will increase the amount of cars on the road, thereby worsening traffic.
The streets in Toronto with the worst traffic have no bike lanes. Regularly, when cycling on those streets, I and other cyclists cruise past gridlocked cars without an issue. It reiterates the point that traffic is caused by too many cars.
If the province instead strengthened its commitment to supporting the freedom of Ontarians to choose how they get around cities by providing them with more, useful, non-car options, then we would see a meaningful impact on traffic. The building of the Ontario Line and the expansion/modernisation of GO's rail network are bold steps in the right direction. We need more action like that, and action that will give locals the freedom to leave their car at home and get around the city by bike, streetcar, or subway. Don't go down this communist path of having a central politburo decide how everyone should live. Give us the freedom to decide ourselves.
