The Ontario government’s attempt to rip bike lanes from Toronto’s streets is nothing short of a betrayal to the people. They want to take away something that isn’t just about biking; it’s about the freedom to move safely in our own city. Imagine a Toronto where cycling families, young children, and hardworking citizens are shoved back into dangerous, congested roads, all because of a government that sees us only as numbers in traffic, not as people with lives, with dreams, with futures.

Bike lanes represent a commitment to progress, to health, and to freedom from the choking fumes and relentless noise of traffic. They’re more than painted lines on the road; they’re the arteries that give life to a vibrant, thriving Toronto. Destroying this lifeline means pushing us all—young, old, families, and singles alike—back into gridlock, back into pollution, back into danger. Every bike lane removed is a step backward, a step away from a Toronto that can truly be called world-class.

Ask yourself: whose interests does this serve? Not the people, that’s for sure. It serves a narrow agenda that wants to keep us beholden to outdated ideas, sacrificing our freedom and our safety. We need bike lanes now more than ever. We need leaders who see Toronto’s potential to be a beacon of green, modern urban living, not a relic of smog-filled streets and overcrowded buses.

Let’s reject this attack on Toronto’s future. Stand with those who want a cleaner, safer, and more connected city. We deserve the choice to move freely, to enjoy our streets without fear, and to protect our city’s forward momentum. Say NO to the removal of bike lanes and YES to a Toronto that values its people and its progress.
