I own a car and use it to drive my two kids to school, appointments, etc and for work and household tasks. However, I do NOT support the removal of existing bike lanes, nor denying the creation of new bike lanes in favour of more space for cars. Biking in the city is FAR faster than driving, it is CHEAPER than driving (hence something you should support if you care about affordability), better for your health AND better for the environment. The measure you have proposed will hurt Ontarians - in their pocketbooks, their spare time, their environment and their health. Removal of bike lanes will hurt health, not only be discouraging people to get exercise, but also putting them in danger of being hit by a car. Do NOT make this change.
