I believe that the removal of bike lanes in the City of Toronto is a mistake and am opposed to the use of tax payer money for this purpose. First of all, the provincial government should not be micromanaging municipal issues, such as bike lanes. Although I am a car user and do not commute by bike, I fully support the presence of bike lanes throughout Toronto, even on major roadways. Saving myself and other car commuters a few minutes of traffic is not worth the dangers of cycling through the city without dedicated lanes.

I urge the government not to remove any existing bike lanes. Instead, they should invest the money in expanding bike lanes throughout the city and improving public transit, which would reduce reliance on cars as the primary mode of commuting. I strongly disagree with the government spending taxpayers' money to remove bike lanes that have already been installed.
