I fully support the Provincial government’s requirement that municipalities obtain permission before installing bike lanes and its authority to remove them at its discretion. This measure ensures accountability and oversight in urban planning decisions that affect the broader population.

I strongly oppose the continued implementation of bike lanes in Toronto. While the concept of bike lanes may seem like a step toward sustainable urban planning, in practice, they have proven to be counterproductive for our city. Toronto’s infrastructure is already strained, and bike lanes exacerbate traffic congestion, reduce available parking, and hinder the movement of goods and services essential to our economy. Additionally, the weather conditions in Toronto make year-round bike commuting impractical for many residents, leading to underutilization of these lanes for a significant portion of the year.

Rather than catering to a small percentage of the population, I urge city planners to focus on solutions that benefit the majority, such as improving public transit, maintaining existing roadways, and implementing traffic flow measures that support the diverse needs of our city’s residents and businesses.
