I vehemently oppose Bill 212.

Bike lanes do not cause congestion. Plain and simple. This is a conservative ploy designed to distract from their failed policies and has nothing to do with bike lanes.

Alternate forms of transportation are the reality Toronto will need to move forward in a sustainable and liveable way. There simply isn't enough space to park cars, or on the roads.

I live in Bloor West Village and routinely use the Bloor bike lanes to commute to and from work st Yonge and St. Clair. Bike lanes create safe, vibrant, economically viable communities. I am also a driver and like having bikes separated. It makes me feel safer when driving. If I am on my bike, I also love bike lanes. They improve my commute to work and provide a safe, healthy and fun way for my family to get around the city. Without bike lanes, we would be one more car adding to the congestion.

Scrap Bill 212 and preserve municipal jurisdiction.
