Bulldozing through the rights of municipalities to self-govern so that you can bulldoze their land to create more traffic is very on brand for this bunch of clowns pretending to be a government. Read more

How much money is being spent to build highways faster that could be going to healthcare, housing, or education? This government is placing such a big priority on people who drive cars and their big corporate friends, with little regard for how their decisions impact everyday Ontarians.

This is a really near-sighted proposal. More highways results in more cars on the road. Cars are expensive and not available for a lot of people. Please invest our tax money in sustainable, public forms of transportation instead. Read more

Highways are a massive financial toll on our province and we should be using the many viable alternatives in southern Ontario. Investing in public transport and rail should take priority. Our current dependency on cars and highways is destroying our environment, planet, our health, and our pockets.

As an active cyclist, driver and walker, I believe this proposed legislation to be regressive and put forward with a blatant disregard for treating all modes of transportation equally. Read more

This proposal is completely ridiculous. It will do nothing to solve gridlock. There is gridlock because we have too many cars. We need to be encouraging alternate forms of transport especially in cities. And cities should be able to decide what is best for their city without interference. Read more

This proposal is biased towards highway building, while ignoring other forms of development such as rail infrastructure, community buildings, or even housing. It is unclear why highway development needs this special consideration. Read more

This bill is not based on data and will do nothing to improve gridlock. Research shows that bike lanes either reduce or have negligible impacts on travel times, make roads safer, and increase visits to local businesses. Read more

This is unnecessary red tape being placed on municipalities. Why doesn’t the Ford Government focus their time, money and efforts on ACTUAL provincial concerns like our health care. This is absolutely unnecessary to be sticking your noses into cities. Read more

Unfortunately this is yet another example of bad policy that will prevent Toronto from becoming a world class city. This policy will create a city that is less pedestrian friendly, more polluted and caters to a certain demographic. Read more

This act (Bill 212 build highways faster act) appears to trample over the rights of citizens, businesses and local municipalities to review, evaluate, comment and critically assess the implementation of large infrastructure works. Read more

Do not remove bike lanes. I personally cannot afford a car and am physically impared making it hard to access ttc stations without elevators. I need these bike lanes to get around the city. Read more
