This policy is dumb. Biking…

This policy is dumb. Biking is an important part of life for many Ontario residents. By removing and making bike infrastructure more difficult to build you are effectively leaving us in a dark age of unfriendly urban design. As a teenager, this affects me even more. I cannot legally drive on my own so biking is the next best method to get where I need to be, when I need to be there. In many parts of the city, biking is already dangerous almost entirely due to motorists, and the small respite we get with bike lanes is now in danger. This bill will make travel less efficient for a large portion of commuters, it will increase carbon emissions, reduce air quality, and make our streets more dangerous.
