This bill is cheap politics by Doug Ford to gain votes with voters outside of downtown Toronto. He’s playing with people’s lives for political gain and power it makes me sick.
Think of me, a young professional living downtown Toronto. I don’t have the financial resources for a car so bike is my means of transportation. Due to housing being unaffordable in Toronto I am forced to ride my bike as means of travel.
This bill is threatening to take away my safety.
Ford mentions they will be looking at data, however, has announced roads he wants to rip up bike lanes on, without even announcing cirtea that will measure what bike lanes will qualify for removal. The whole thing is shady, I don’t trust their process.
Studies done in holland show a 800 percent roi in bike lanes and a build it they will come strategy. It’s unfortunate that ford is over stepping what the people of Toronto want and he’s putting lives in danger.
If they remove the bike lanes on Bloor, people will still bike on bloor, leading to more congestion then there is currently And more deaths
I’m a disgusted at the ford government for this
