Comment
I strongly believe Bill 212 is not in the province's interests and is a large overstep of provincial jurisdiction in an area of decision making best left to municipalities. For this reason alone, it will lead to poor decision making and hurt Ontarians.
Bill 212 will lead to more congestion, not more. Promoting bike use is a good use of resources and this Bill 212 is a waste of tax payer's money. Bill 212 will negatively affect health and safety and cost the province significant money in health care and emergency services in the long term.
Bill 212 will negatively affect the livability of our cities with more congestion, more dangerous cycling options and poorer air quality. Ontario should be investing in reducing greenhouse gas emissions not going backwards as this Bill proposes to do.
This is an ill conceived legislative proposal with far too short a consultation process for sound consideration.
