To: The Hon. Doug Ford, Premier of Ontario
Subject: Opposition to Provincial Overreach on Bike Lane Decisions
Dear Premier Ford,
I am writing to express my disappointment with the Ontario government’s decision, through Bill 212, to override municipal authority on bike lane design. This overreach undermines Toronto’s elected officials and disregards the City’s needs for sustainable transportation infrastructure.
The decision lacks transparent, data-driven justification and detracts from addressing genuine sources of traffic congestion—namely the delays in the Ontario Line construction overseen by Metrolinx. If the government is concerned with congestion in Toronto, it would be more effective to ensure Metrolinx adheres to its timeline.
I urge you to reconsider this amendment, respect municipal jurisdiction, and prioritize evidence-based policies.
Sincerely,
Toronto Resident
