- we need to build for where…

- we need to build for where we are going - not where we were several decades ago.
- there will be tens of thousands of new residents in our city who will need to get around - they can't all drive cars.
- the city has invested huge amounts of time energy and money in creating this network of lanes that will take us into a future of lower emissions as planned by the "TransformTO NetZero by 2040 commitment.
- the young people of our city and province are telling us they want a climate safe future. Let's build it for them.
- Please do not interfere with the important investment the city of Toronto has made in these lanes - through local democracy at work - and please respect the need to shift our traffic patterns. Everyone in a car is not possible for Toronto, so let's not disadvantage those using other modes of travel.
- Building a highway over greenbelt land would also be a travesty, increasing carbon emissions and destroying farmland. For food security in our future we NEED to protect and preserve farmland. the primary purpose of the highway is to spread housing further out, instead we need to intensify, in the city, where people can travel by transit, walking and cycling and can save a LOT of money by not needing to have a car.
