Comment
While municipalities are a creation of the province under the Canadian Constitution I think that this sort of step is a massive over reach of power. Cities should be able to trek their own course and from a subsidiarity augment they are the most relevant level of government to be making these sorts of decisions.
Furthermore, there are many studies showing that increasing the viable alternatives to driving is the only reliable way to reduce gridlock, so forcing cities to only add lanes or never take away lanes is a short-sighted and misinformed mechanism for resolving this issue.
