Bike lanes are crucial to a healthy, and environmentally friendly downtown core. Most importantly, bike lanes in the City of Toronto should be a discussion that remains municipal. To have the province holding power over something that is inherently municipal is extremely unfair, and bias. For instance, why is Toronto being treated differently than any other municipality? Should the province be given the right to decide where certain bike lanes are allowed in Oakville?

Additionally, to remove bike lanes is inherently bad for environment, and a waste of resources. The environmental impact from forcing people to drive or transit would already increase, but the environmental impact of having to go and remove bike lanes is dastardly.

As a born and raised Torontonian, I do not support this bill. Let the people who live in Toronto have ownership over what happens in their own city.
