Ontario needs safe cycling…

Ontario needs safe cycling infrastructure. This bill is an attack on our civil liberties as Ontarians. Every person who is on a bike instead of driving, is helping to decrease car traffic. Removing the option of safe cycling will only create more traffic. This Bill would be a climate disaster. Our cities need less noise and air pollution, which means more bikes and less cars. Bill 212 will cause more wear and tear on roads, costing more money to fix roads more frequently. For individual and community health and safety, we need active transportation options. Every single person and facet of society benefits when we allow people the dignity to exist safely and productively outside of a car. People on bikes deserve safety and respect. There is no research to support Bill 212 and it can not continue.
