I'm disheartened to see that a fundamental right as simple as safe transportation is being politicized by my government.
The very issues that Bill 212 proposes to address - gridlock caused by decades of suburban sprawl - will not be solved by making driving more welcoming for anyone and everyone who prefers to drive. If your policies were based on true transportation principles, rather than the prospect of securing short term votes by vilifying bike lanes amongst suburban voters, the basic concept of 'induced demand' would shut down your own argument immediately.
If this current government considers this a truly sound, non-politically motivated bill, I would please ask you to share your data with the public on how Bill 212 will solve gridlock. No taglines or broad statements - data, please.
We have a right to see that our leaders are making data-based decisions in the public's best interest.
