1) REMOVING BICYCLE LANES WILL COST LIVES

You must be totally mad. What a waste of taxpayer money for this shambles. How many more cyclists have to be run down and killed by a motorist until you stop your culture war games?

2) HIGHWAY 413 IS NOT NEEDED - PUBLIC TRANSPORT IS

I'm originally from London, UK. The public transport system in Ontario is shocking. It is impossible to live here without car, unless in downtown Toronto - which you seem hellbent on screwing up. It's common sense congestion is caused by cars. Simply redirecting cars won't reduce congestion, unless you want to nothing but roads covering the landscape. Ontario needs to invest more in trains, subways, and streetcars (trams).

Hardly any local authority wants this highway to nowhere. Use the money to invest in sustainable public transport. You can achieve similar goals by opening up Highway 407 more for a fraction of the financial and environmental cost - and don't exempt yourselves from proper environmental scrutiny either.

3) STOP USING POLITICAL SLOGANS TO NAME BILLS / ACTS

The ruling Ontario Conservatives pride Canada's links to British traditions. One of them is presumably the Westminster parliamentary system. The Westminster convention is that the names of Bills and Acts are supposed to be factual and politically neutral.
