This Bill represents a major step backwards for Ontario. We need to support active transit wherever possible, and increasing the burden on small municipalities who want to support bike lanes adds unnecessary barriers to supporting environmentally-friendly modes of transit, wastes taxpayer dollars at municipal and provincial levels, and worsens the safety of cyclists. Furthermore expediting highway construction by removing environmental assessments is ridiculous. Do it right. We know that climate change is going to impact the daily lives of Ontarians, and we need to support better means of transportation. Invest in cycling, invest in high speed rails, invest in sustainable transportation.
