I do not think the provincial government should be involved with municipal road issues. This is big government over-reach. Adding extra red tape for no value.

A local government is in the best position, elected by its citizens, to decide on traffic patterns, safety, not queen's park elected by citizens of other larger jurisdictions.

There is no one size fits all answer, a small town with wide roads and no transit versus a large very spread out city. Why should there be a provincial law that tries to set a one-size fits all 'override' on local democracy?

Reducing gridlock is a noble goal. Safety is a noble goal. The environment is a noble goal. The health of the citizens is a noble goal. Let each municipality sort this out.

Remove red tape, remove large provincial overreach, cancel this bill 212, its a political agenda, not a proper policy decision.
