Hi I disagree with this…

Hi I disagree with this proposal

All these lanes are recent additions, Toronto takes years to make these decisions after spending time and money on consultation, and now they've spent the money and actually installed them you want to get rid of them? Most of them are a few years old at most. It makes no sense and is not in the least bit fiscally sound.

It's also not safe. Have you seen people riding bikes on busy streets without bike lanes? I saw someone nearly sideswiped by a bus on Spadina. My sister just won her insurance claim this month after being injured when a driver didn't look before making a right turn. My mom was hit when someone opened their car door. I haven't been hit yet but its either my 70 year old father or my turn next. Here's to hoping we survive.

I expect as a response to this Bill there will be more bikes on sidewalks angering pedestrians, and more drivers mad as cyclists take the lane, as I would advise my fellow cyclists to start doing. We need to refuse to cycle in the gutter in what should be a world class City. We should also try to prevent death and injury, but it seems the province isn't interested in focusing on health or wellness.

Also this is a big City. Want to get rid of gridlock? Get rid of snow, construction and people. Can't do that? Then get rid of the cars. In 10 years, once this doesn't work and there's a government not as interested in interfering with City initiatives, how much is it going to cost to redo these lanes?

I love spending my tax money on political power plays and watching my City fall apart in the process. It's great. Everything's awesome.

Thanks you for your time.
