This bill will ultimately cost Ontario taxpayers millions of dollars to pass and enact – on top of the cost already sunk over decades to study, propose and implement them. It will kill Ontarians in collisions with drivers. Their blood will be on your hands. It will increase pollution. It will make Toronto a less liveable city. It will make Toronto a lesser place to play or do business in. It will hurt everyone who either refuses to drive, doesn’t want to drive or cannot afford to drive. It will put thousands of low wage new Canadians at risk delivering our food.
There is one thing this bill will NOT do: it will not reduce gridlock for commuters. It will take years to remove these lanes and even when complete it will not change the basic fact: CARS CAUSE TRAFFIC. The only way to ease traffic is to get people PUT of their giant personal vehicles and onto alternate forms of mass transit. This isn’t rocket science. Do better. I’m disgusted.
