I am a cyclist and urban designer who commutes to work daily. In August 2024, I was hit by a car on a residential street near a school. I’m still recovering, but I was lucky—the car was going 35 km/h. At a higher speed, the outcome could have been far worse.

The Premier needs to understand that removing bike lanes not only wastes tax dollars but also endangers lives. I am a human being, a Canadian, and I expect my government to prioritise my safety and value my life.

We live in a democracy, and I expect the Premier to respect the decisions of our elected councillors. Everyone has the right to safe streets.

My life depends on these bike lanes. Please think of that.
