I firmly oppose removing bike lanes and reducing future bike lanes. You are taking Ontario backwards into an era that no longer exists. Cars are not a practical solution for the amount of people in the GTA, and we MUST encourage other modes of transportation. People who ride bikes deserve space in our cities, and they deserve to be safe. Municipalities deserve to make their own decisions without provincial overreaching. If side streets were practical solutions, they would already be in place.
I also understand that this bill allows the government to skip the proper environmental assessments to build Highway 413. The corruption here is blatant. There will be nothing left of value in Ontario as Doug Ford paves over paradise.
I hope Doug Ford will listen to the experts here. This bill is flat-out wrong on almost all proposals, time will not be saved amd injuries and deaths will increasd. Let's move Ontario forward, not create a war on bikes. How many deaths are worth 2 minutes of saved time in traffic? The correct answer is zero.
