If the Premier is committed…

If the Premier is committed to reducing commute times at all cost without referencing any data to support his decisions, he should probably just outlaw traffic lights, stop signs, and pedestrian crosswalks next. Surely these trite pieces of infrastructure are not worth the increased travel time to the suburban car commuters that the Ontario government seems to value above anything else.

We have plenty of data that shows that the best way to reduce traffic is to invest in other methods of transportation. Why are we wasting time and money on backwards policies like this instead of investing in existing alternative transportation infrastructure? Give this money to the TTC, stop building highways at the cost of the environment, and let's leave city bikelanes alone.
