I believe that Bill 212…

I believe that Bill 212 should not be passed. It represents a micro-managing of municipal areas of responsibility that the provincial government should not be doing. It is an over-reach in other words.

We are in a terrible climate crisis, and need to focus on strengthening municipal bike networks, public transit, and inter-city travel by electrified trains and creation of busways. We need to de-emphasize our reliance on individual vehicles, even electric ones. We need to reduce sprawl and move trucks onto the 407 highway. We need to make it cheaper and easier to use transportation alternatives, and stop privileging car drivers.

Rescind Bill 212 and provide adequate resources to municipalities to strengthen their public transportation and bicycle networks.

And open the Eglinton Crosstown! This will make a big difference for Torontonians' travel time.
