I oppose this proposal. Aside from being a waste of taxpayer dollars, removal of the bike lanes is a reversal of efforts to encourage citizens to choose alternative modes of transportation to automobiles. Disincentivization of driving in the city core is surely a more rational way to reduce gridlock and air pollution. Additionally, the province's resources should be directed towards addressing matters that effect all residents of the province, such as continuing to expand public transit and affordable housing. It is inappropriate for the province to interfere in affairs such as bike lanes which are clearly under municipal jurisdiction.
