Restricting or removing bicycle lanes in the province at this point in the climate crisis is sheer folly and political pandering. The science is clear that we must do everything we can to encourage people to get out of their cars and on to public transit, bicycles, and on foot. Studies have also shown that more lanes for cars do not in fact reduce congestion, all they do is attract more traffic. The planet and our cities cannot sustain 1950s and 60s commuter patterns. Someone's personal choice to commute to work alone in a private automobile in downtown Toronto should not come at the cost of my safety as a committed bicyclist living downtown. Cyclists pay taxes and vote too. And each daily cyclist contributes more then their share to actually doing something about the climate crisis. More bike lanes, not fewer.
