In April of 2020, during the height of COVID, my wife was nearly killed while riding her bike in Ottawa, because of poor bike infrastructure. Better bike lines save lives, and a decrease in bike lanes will cost lives.

The provincial government on Queen’s Park has no business interfering in the decisions of local councils about where bike lanes are an appropriate improvement.
