While I have very little…

While I have very little confidence in this government to act in the best interests of the citizens of the City of Toronto (we didn’t vote for them, after all), I still hope it’s possible that this deeply flawed legislation is reconsidered. Evidence shows that returning these lanes to car traffic will have minimal impact on congestion - to do that, the city needs reliable public transportation infrastructure.

My teenage boys use bike lanes to travel all over the city - to their part-time jobs, to their leisure activities, to see friends. I never worry about their safety because of the excellent cycling infrastructure developed over the past decade.

There is practically zero enforcement of traffic violations in the city, drivers are more dangerous than ever and the TPS is useless. If my kids - or anyone’s - are harmed by a driver because these lanes are removed, I hope this government accepts their culpability.
