The idea that blocking the installation of, or more bafflingly, removing existing bike lanes shows that this government has no interest in research-based solutions to improving traffic congestion. Every study conducted has shown that providing people with viable alternatives to driving will reduce traffic congestion, as it gets people out of cars, leaving space for those who must, or even prefer, to drive.
Furthermore, removing bike lanes forces cyclists into the car lanes, which is dangerous for them and drivers. To add to this, because of the way this “argument” has been framed by this government, you are further endangering cyclists by creating animosity between drivers and cyclists, which WILL result in drivers acting aggressively to the cyclists who will now be FORCED to share the car lanes with them. The blood of any dead or injured cyclists will rest solely on your hands.
Lastly - this province is experiencing REAL problems with underfunded health care, education, and housing. The fact that this bike lane issue is becoming a provincial matter at all is laughable and shameful. Leave bike lane decisions to the municipalities and focus on helping ALL ONTARIANS, instead of trying to stick it to people in Toronto. This government is a disgrace.
