Hello.
I am a citizen of Ontario who commutes by bike a minimum of 5 days a week year round. Bike lanes are the only time I feel not only safe, but respected on the roads. I currently live in Oakville Ontario where there are few bike lanes, and where they do exist, they are clearly designed to favour car traffic, making them next to useless. This bill is incredibly short sighted and so obviously politically motivated. We need more, safer and better connected bike infrastructure, especially in Toronto, a city I love and was a resident of for 10 years.

The more you build out bike lanes and public transit, the easier it is to get around with these modes of transit to more people will opt to use it, the less cars there will be on the road and the smoother and fast the traffic. It's just common sense.

I ask you to reconsider this regressive bill.

Thank you.
