This proposal is reactive, careless, and not evidence based. Bike lanes increase business for businesses on major roads, make it safer to get around, and contribute to making Toronto a world class city. For the vast majority of people in Toronto, biking is an excellent mode of transportation. I regularly use Bloor and University to commute safely to work. The majority of Canadians don’t have the luxury of putting their feet up in their suburban home (Etobicoke) and weekend access to a massive cottage (Muskoka).

The solution is obviously to get cars off the road. To do this, bike infrastructure needs to be improved, public transport networks expanded, and by prioritizing initiatives that reduce CO2 emissions.
