I want to express my strong opposition to Doug Ford's bill to remove bike lanes. As a daily cyclist, I rely on these lanes to ensure the safety of myself and my family during our commutes. The bike lanes are not just painted lines; they are vital infrastructure that protects us from traffic and promotes a safer, healthier community.

Removing these lanes is a significant backward step for our city. Instead of dismantling existing infrastructure that supports cycling, we should be focusing on expanding and improving it. Cycling is an environmentally friendly mode of transportation that can reduce congestion and pollution, contributing to a better quality of life for everyone.

We must adapt our city to be more cyclist-friendly. This means investing in safe, accessible bike lanes that encourage more people to ride, fostering a culture of active transportation. I urge our leaders to prioritize the safety of all road users and to think long-term about the benefits of a cycling-friendly city. Let's not take a step back; let's move forward towards a more sustainable and inclusive future.
