This Bill is a perfect…

This Bill is a perfect example of how a near-sighted and irrational urban vision can hamper true progress.

Whether judged on the basis of road space, carbon emissions, travel time, health, or numerous other factors, cycling within congested urban centres has been shown time and again to be a far superior and responsible mode of transport than driving vehicles. This is not a hypothesis, one can see it demonstrated in various countries around the world, especially Europe.

Toronto suffers from deep-rooted transport issues due to infrastructural limitations exacerbated by an ever-growing population. This bill chooses to worsen the problem by rewarding the wealthy, and promoting the most inefficient and environmentally damaging modes of transport.
