As a Torontonian and an Ontarian, I'm very disheartened by this bill. Although I have a drivers license, I prefer cycling to driving. In recent years, the City of Toronto has made great progress in making cycling a safer experience, and thus more accessible and appealing to the public. I truly believe having safe alternatives to driving will help congestion, not worsen it. The more people choose car alternatives, the fewer cars there will be in car lanes.

This bill is also an overreach by the province. Cities go to great length to study and invest in their transportation network. This government should not roll back the years of work done by the City of Toronto. This bill takes us backwards, not forwards in creating livable cities.
