I am a physician and am writing to add my voice to those who are opposed to removing bike lanes in Toronto. They promote health, reduce pollution, reduce accidents, and enable faster commutes.
As the planet warms our winters have become milder and our snow falls have decreased so biking all year round is more and more an option. I bike commuted for years without bike lanes and was only doored once tho had many close calls. With the new bike lanes I feel much safer cycling and have had far fewer close calls.
The wastefulness of the expense of undoing the expense we have already gone too to improve our chances of limiting climate warming is fiscally irresponsible and now what I would expect from a conservative government. I will be reconsidering my vote as a result
