This bill is not in the…

This bill is not in the interest of most Torontonians, as it compromises the long term viability of our transportation infrastructure. By facilitating politicized backsliding into a car-centered approach to infrastructure development, this bill would not only impede the government's climate targets, but do the exact opposite of what it claims by actually worsening congestion.

The only way to combat car traffic is to improve alternative, much more efficient methods of transportation. This is a known fact in the field of urban planning, with hundreds of international examples to back it up. This bill is a short-term populist superficial action that would have disastrous effects in the long-term. I sincerely hope that our provincial lawmakers will not compromise our future by caving to Doug Ford's government in adapting this harmful bill.
