I oppose this bill.

The people of their municipalities paid for the lanes, now everyone has to pay to take them out. Just for some time in the future, I'm betting we will pay to put them back. The point of conservatives is to not spend money like liberals.
This is also adding more red tape for municipal projects, which is the opposite of what being conservative means.
This will increase government employees just to analyze future proposals sent in by municipalities if they want to build lanes. Again, going against typical conservative politics.
I've been feeling lately that this is the most fiscally liberal conservative government this province has had and worsening the deficit.
It is typical conservative to like cars over any other form of transportation fine. But theres no need to spend the money on tearing down what municipalities want for their communities. Better off focussing on the413 and getting that started before rushing this dumb bill targeted at downtown toronto.
What about the rest of ontario and their needs. Building a road to the ring of fire so ontario can once again be a resource leader.

As a driver too i dont want cyclists on the roads, same way i dont want pedestrians on the road, they impede traffic and giving them a lane is the logical thing to do since bikes are slow and small. If i hit one i dent my car and my insurance goes up. IF they get hit they break bones or die. Doing this while also pausing the gas tax is also weird, 413 money and all of that better be coming only from taxes paid by motorists.

As the city grows there is no room to expand streets further after this demolition of bike lanes. They were clogged before the bike lanes and that was with idk 1 million less people in the GTA. This wont fix anything anywhere as the population grows.

I like to drive, i dont like to drive downtown, and its not because there are too many cyclists its because there are too many cars. If we can just get these drivers in bikes they would be out of my way and i could drive bloor smoothly. roundabouts could be interesting too because stop lights slow me down.

Mayor show won her mayorship with this policy when campaigning. People in that city voted for her to add bike lanes alot closer to today than people voted for the conservatives. Meaning that her goals are alot more up to date as to what city of toronto residents want from their city.
