Why does the Premier keep…

Why does the Premier keep making such bad decisions? Not to mention outside his purview of control. As both a driver and a cyclist in Toronto, I strongly support these bike lanes. Their removal would be a huge waste of resources. It's faulty to think that this would improve gridlock in the downtown core. People live in these neighbourhoods, they're more than just roads for suburban residents (who don't pay Toronto taxes), to get to the downtown core. The bike lanes are very utilized, especially the ones on Bloor.
