I heartily disagree with Bill 212; the *province* should not be involved at all in the removal of *municapl* bike lanes. This is a municipal issue that the Premier should have zero involvement in unless it's to provide funding for more of them.

Bike lanes are statiscally proven time and time again to REDUCE gridlock.

If bike lanes are reduced, it makes biking more dangerous for cyclists, drivers, and pedestrians; there are zero upsides other than appeasing a Premier obsessed with Toronto who likely has never taken a bike lane in his life. It also in no way reduces grid lock because those cyclists now need to board public transit, which would increase stops and potentially require additional buses and streetcars, or they have to get in cars. More cars on the road means more grid lock, something that should be obvious to this government but is ignored entirely, either out of sheer ignorance or willful malice.

Cycling is healthy, mentally and physically. It reduces environmental impact and saves tax payers money.

This entire idea is preposterous and a waste of our provincial government's time and valuable tax payer money. They should be embarrased at even having suggested it and knowing that people have to take time out of their days to fight their petty and personal vindictiveness.

LEAVE THE BIKE LANES.
