This is moronic. We need to move people through improved transit and safe bike lanes. Stop focusing on cars and focus on people. You are embarrassing this province. We want accessible, safe and climate conscious transit options.

As a civil engineer approaching the age of 40 who drives, takes transit, cycles and walks in a major city, I'm disgusted by this proposed legislation. We should be doing everything in our power to reduce the number of cars on the roads. Ignoring climate change will not make it go away. Read more
