Bike lanes, like those on…

Bike lanes, like those on Bloor/Danforth, Yonge & University in Toronto, are vital for cities to thrive. They make things safer, result in less traffic congestion, improve health & wellbeing of citizens, help to sustain the environment, and are essential to address the transportation needs of Ontario citizens. None of the ideas in this legislation make any sense. Each idea here will make the situation for cities across Ontario worse! Stop making life worse and worse for Ontarians! We don't want this at all! We don't want you to remove bike lanes! In fact we want want MORE BUILT!!!

You will also be ruining the environment by not ensuring that the correct investigations are done before building a highway. Environmental scans are required for a reason. Don't purposely make Ontario worse for generations to come.

You MUST rescind this proposed legislation. Otherwise you would be PURPOSELY ruining the lives of Ontarians and their access to good modes of transportation. You will kill people. You will make it so people can't commute in their cities between their work and home. You will make it harder for cars to not accidentally kill cyclists!

Your government is unapologetically corrupt... Under so many investigations... Basing decisions without considering the consequences... Or worse making them out of some type of child's spite for a city that didn't want you as Mayor.

I know there is no reasoning with this type of governing/authority, but at the very least this comment can serve as a record that citizens did in fact try to express how wrong all of this is before being ignored once again. I know your government will simply approve this legislation without any consultations, data, community engagement, look into healthcare financial benefits (or lack thereof), or inquiry into what's actually right for Ontario.

Signed,

A very sad (but not surprised) Ontarian
