I have yet to see any data that proves that bike lanes are contributing to gridlock. What I have seen is data showing that business has improved for business owners along Bloor with the bike lanes there. Cp24 just released a report today with owners saying they oppose removing the bike lanes.

On top of that, bike lanes make it safer for people to get around by bike and will encourage more people to choose biking over taking a car.

Some car drivers may think bike lanes don't get used enough but that's probably because the bike lanes aren't full of gridlocked traffic.

The data shows bike lanes are good for Toronto. The premier is merely trying to win votes from people that don't actually live in this city.

Also, it is an amoral overreach for a provincial government to have this kind of say over municipal affairs. Stay out of Toronto, Doug.
