I'm a 25-year-old architect who cares about his city, the environment and his health and that's why I commute on my bike every single day. Removing bike lanes and putting red tape on new bike lane development is going to negatively impact congestion, not make it better - it's basic urban planning. Look at cities like LA: adding an 8th car lane didn't solve their traffic problem. This is absurd and definitely not what Canada and Ontario should be striving to achieve.

If the argument is the low ridership, it is because there's not enough incentive. You should be discussing legislation to increase the number of bike lanes, not remove it.
