Removing bike lanes or making it necessary for municipalities to get provincial approval is simply wrong-headed and blantantly political. The government seems intent on making cars the king in cities and towns everywhere under the guise of very questionable logic and research.

As a pedestrian and as a driver, I see a far greater safety issue with one lane of traffic in each direction plus a bike lane than with two lanes of traffic plus bikes trying to weave in and out around the cars. This is simple logic, Mr. Ford.

The science says that induced capacity is the result of more lanes for cars and that more lanes simply kicks the gridlock further down the road. Please listen to the science, and not to others with conflicts of interest or axes to grind, or political motives. Show leadership and innovation. It's why this government was elected.
