This is a blatant power grab…

This is a blatant power grab to enable the provincial government to unilaterally build the expensive, environmentally harmful, and inefficient 413 Highway. As far as the bike lanes themselves go, all rigorous studies show they reduce traffic and are a net benefit to the city by taking cars off streets and lowering pollutants. There is no logical reason to rip out these bike lines which will be very expensive and will not resolve anything while also increasing vehicle emissions and encouraging more cars. Like many of the Ford government policies, it centers around what is good for him personally at the expense of the electorate which is shameful public policy.
