I live in Waterloo and I…

I live in Waterloo and I bike to different places every day, meaning biking is an essential part of my life because it is the only mode of transportation that I use. Since it plays a vital role in my daily routine, my social life, and my friends' social life, it has a huge impact on the quality of our lives. We have our biking community which means a sense of community we share and social events we attend.
I will not be able to use the bus or Uber, or I cannot drive because I do not have a car. Because I care about my health, fitness, time, and the life quality of where I live. I care about the planet that I live on and I want to keep Waterloo as green and clean as possible.
I cannot imagine Waterloo without its bike lanes because I do not want to live in a city like Toronto. That simply means that I do not like air pollution, noise pollution, constant stress of getting to work, road raging at other citizens, wasting my time in traffic, and wasting my money on other modes of transportation.
Given all that, instead of wasting taxpayer dollars by adding red tape and bureaucracy, the government should invest in constructing more bike lanes so that cyclists are able to bike safely in rainy and snowy days of Winter. That should be our next project.

Is it not the 21st century? Is it not time to move forward instead of backward? Have we not caused enough exploitation and violation? Why can we not think less about exploiting each other?
