Ontario and Canada are presently dealing with an affordability crisis pilled onto what is only the beginning of a climate crisis. Bike lanes serve to address both of these complex problems by providing a lower cost alternative for personal transportation as compared to public transportation or a person vehicle while simultaneously reducing negative environmental impacts. To restrict or prevent the ability of a city or municipality to introduce bike lanes would be a regressive measure that endangers some of Ontario's most vulnerable road users. I genuinely believe that should this legislation be introduced Ontario will be a joke on the global stage where nations are finding creative solutions and utilizing every lever possible to fight climate change and personal vehicle congestion.
