We live in a democratic society, right?

In my opinion enough is enough regarding bike lanes. The population is growing so is the car owner numbers. The traffic is crippled in crucial areas, like direct route to hospital ER. I witnessed the ambulance stuck in the traffic, because the two lane road was reduced to one lane in favor of bike lanes; the paramedics took out the patient from the ambulance and were running pushing the gurney on the side walk to reach the hospital.
Does anybody think that the bike lanes cost life ? Canada is a four season country with cold snowy winters, when people don't ride bikes. In my area never see bikers in the bike lanes, never which to me indicates there's no need for it. Turning lanes turned into bike lanes, sometimes mean that you have to wait for that traffic lights to change three times till you are able to turn.
With all my respect for the bike riders the bike lanes are not justified. They are causing anxiety, congestion and enormous cost from the tax payers money.
Please stop the nonsense!!!
