Why is the province micromanaging cities like this? This is very much a municipal issue and adding extra red tape won't actually improve anything, it'll just be a lot of sound and fury and news articles and at the end of it, all that will be accomplished is more construction on already busy roads that will be more hostile to cyclists after it's all eventually done. Why is the province paying for minor road construction in a city? Is there too much money lying around after funding healthcare and education?

Also, is the Ontario government planning to become an expert in the traffic patterns of every city it plans to "consult" about bikes or is it Toronto specifically that gets special treatment?
