What Ford is proposing is a rhetoric that defies all research and rationality and willfully ignores decades of studies within urban planning. This proposed bill even ignores his own government task force's research. The logic that this will reduce congestion is also flawed. More and more people will HAVE to drive because they have no other option. Doug Ford is proposing a bill that surely will be a death sentence to many cyclists and pedestrians. It seems apparent that Ford's dream is a place where cycling and transit is deemed too inconvenient or dangerous and everyone has to have a car to have any mobility. He wants a place where the only walking anyone does is to and from the car parked a minute away. I doubt he has ever even biked throughout the city. Cyclists and pedestrians will die, businesses will suffer, and congestion will increase.
