This is an egregious waste of taxpayer dollars and well outside the jurisdiction of the provincial government. The people of Toronto voted for the representatives who backed this bike lane and paid for it; it is an affront to democracy to undo acts of other levels of government. Even if this legislation were to pass, it would certainly not be retroactive. The premier clearly has a conflict of interest in this matter as the route he is targeting is on his commute to work. This is also an underhanded way to pass legislation designed to remove requirements for environmental assessments to enable him and his associates to pursue construction projects that will directly benefit him once out of office. I would say that this warrants investigation from the appropriate ethics/integrity adjudicator. I would encourage Doug Ford and his party co-conspirators to do what the rest of us to do have our voices heard and vote in municipal elections, or use his position to advocate rather than enact arbitrary laws based on his whim. I understand that may be an unreasonable expectation however as recognizing that others have value and that you are not special requires adult-level intellectual functioning.
