I wonder why a bike path…

I wonder why a bike path should be removed and the sidewalk should be made narrower, what is more important, your residents or the car???????. It can also be done differently, namely reducing car traffic so that there is MORE SAFETY on ALL levels. Since we can do it here in Europe, it should also be feasible in Ontario and the rest of North America, but the car is sacred so cyclists may be hit because they are also ''so-called'' traffic jam causers, that is discouraging 1) an environmental solution, 2) more peace in the streets, 3) in general more safety and 4) less maintenance of streets, or shall we say ''stroats''. Most motorists are alone in the car and cause, as I read on your site, SMOG, to reduce that you can do something about it....allow fewer cars in the city and arrange better public transport which can also generate money for the municipality. Another option is to start charging taxes on cars that want to enter the city like they do in London (UK), it will generate money and reduce the number of cars. These are options, but these are options that at least generate something, and not a highway through the city that makes it all less safe. #carcentricOntario.
