Dear Mr Ford,
I am greatly disappointed in your proposed legislative reach into the business of the city of Toronto and its 3-year plan to build bicycle infrastructure. I recently retired and bought two new quite expensive bicycles and spent much of 2024 riding Toronto for fun and fitness. The bike lanes are a valuable attraction and I suggest you and your transportation minister should try cycling them, just for kicks. You might like it. If you do, your health will undoubtedly improve as mine has! I feel great! Cycling makes distances dissolve and you will be amazed how far you can go! You might be tempted to try cycle commuting, in which case your Bloor street cycle lanes will be very convenient for your case.
Removing those beautifully executed lanes on University will be more expense in both time, effort, and money and such an outrageous waste of tax money that you really should be ashamed to even propose it. It is indeed much worse than that, as it seems transparently based on your own personal distaste for them and I imagine the inconvenience you perceive they cause you. Be humble please Mr Ford.
Ontarians are your concern. All Ontarians.
