I don't think it is the role of the Province to influence any local legislation like this one. Or does the Province want to have the Federal level intervene on such matters as well and by pass it? Isn't it a waste of everyone's energy and time? Let's keep political intervention at the relevant level and on the relevant areas.

Then, on the content on of this bill: All residents all paying for roads an infrastructure in Toronto, yet only a handful use big individual vehicles. Even without bike lanes and more car traffic, it will only be a small proportion of Torontonians using these streets. Whereas public transportation and bike lanes (as opposed to individual cars) help having more people move around in a more equitable way. In the context of climate change, energy scarcity and space scarcity, let's follow evidence-based solutions that many other cities are implementing successfully (Paris, France, just to name one): bike lanes are the way forward for better, more livable and sustainable big cities.
