The Ford Government’s proposal to limit and remove bike lanes will actively cost people’s lives and increase congestion. Cars are the most inefficient means of travel because of the space they require to move what is most often just a single person. There are plenty of studies showing that bike lanes do not increase congestion and often lower it. This does not even consider the benefits of a more active society and lessened climate impact that bike lanes contribute to. Cars are also incredibly dangerous and are the cause of the destruction of many downtowns across the world due to their incessant and unjustified demand for more space. The Ford Government continues to act on opinion over fact and forces Ontarians to live with their regressive decisions.
