The proposal to remove bike…

The proposal to remove bike lanes is deeply flawed and wasteful. It shows a clear disregard for taxpayers and fails to address the real issues affecting workers and businesses. If the government truly wanted to improve gridlock, it would invest in public transportation and reduce dependency on cars, rather than eliminating infrastructure that supports sustainable transit options.

Cars are inefficient, costly, environmentally damaging, and a poor long-term investment. Instead of doubling down on car-centric infrastructure, the government should prioritize high-speed public transit for both people and goods. This would benefit Canadians and businesses by offering faster, more reliable, and sustainable solutions.

If the government acknowledges the problems caused by accidents and road closures, it should focus on de-prioritizing cars, not entrenching reliance on them. Similarly, any interest in digital connectivity has no logical connection to removing bike lanes.

Building a new highway or removing bike infrastructure will not solve the underlying issues. Instead, we need policies that make alternative transit options more appealing, practical, and accessible.

This proposal lacks foresight, stinks of conservative sell-outs and should be thrown out entirely.
