This bill is extremely short…

This bill is extremely short-sighted. And so obviously transparent. We see you for what you are and what you are doing, Doug.

It goes without saying that I stand against Bill 212.

Bicycle lanes provide a safe alternative to navigating our city, for the purpose of commuting to and from work, and for conducting daily life, for those without, or choosing to be without, a car.

Vehicular traffic congestion in the city is due to the increasing volume of cars and has already hit its peak. As a rational, reasoning driver, it's obvious that the reason for traffic is the volume of cars. As a safe driver, I welcome cyclists having their own lanes so that I have no worry and concern for their safety (as is my duty) and so that they don't impede what little vehicular flow there is. Removing the bike lanes will simply put cyclists back in the lanes with those very cars that want cyclists removed from the road, and in harms way.

Bicycle lanes increase transportation options. They enable people to get to their place of business, school, and conduct daily life. They connect communities. And bicycle lanes save lives.

Doug Ford and Bill 212 clearly aim to remove these benefits from the citizens of Toronto.
