I am writing to express my opposition to the addendum to Bill 212, which requires the province to remove the separated bike lanes that have been installed on Bloor Street, University Avenue, and Yonge Street in the City of Toronto.

Do not move forward with this bill. Especially for caledon residents who will be losing their life long homes. This bill, with its fines and penalties for people who live in their farms for 50 years is absolutely disgusting. Reminds me of living in a communist country.
Please keep, and expand the current bike lane system. It has made cycling in the city much safer and helps new cyclists feel more confident on the road.

Dear Premier Doug Ford,
I strongly oppose Bill 212 - this act will NOT save time - bikes alleviate gridlock, and save lives. By removing bike lanes, my life will be at risk.

The problem with congestion and traffic in the city is always cars. This city needs better public transport, more and better bike lanes. Encourage people to use TTC and bikes, to walk. Make the infrastructure good so people would choose public transport or bike.

This is a horrible proposal in every way.
It will lead to people getting killed.
It will not improve car traffic at all.
It's a total waste of money.
It allows the government to expropriate land with little recourse to the owners.

I am opposed to this bill as there are to many hidden items in the bill thatbhas nothing to do with bike lanes but also about taking property away from owners in the 905 to be able to use there land for a highway that nobody wants but Doug ford and his housing and road development companies.

This bill will have detrimental consequences for Ontarians and Toronto residents. This will not solve anything and peoples' lives will be put at risk. Traffic will increase, people will lose their lives, simply because the provincial government is playing politics.

Please do not go through with this bill and waste our taxpayers dollars. Bike lanes don't meaningfully increase car traffic and often reduce it, especially in dense cities. We need more investment in transit not highways.
This legislation appears, from what information has been made publicly available, to be myopic and misguided in the extreme. The only proven method to reduce traffic congestion is to reduce the trip share by single-occupancy vehicles.

This bill is a terrible idea and a massive overreach of the provincial government.
Removing environmental protections. Forcing sale of land without any recourse for home owners...all for a highway that will fix nothing.

Please do not remove the bike lanes.
I biked as a child but never thought of it as a means of transportation as I thought it was too dangerous.

Do not remove any bike lanes. I commute everyday cycling even in the winter, and drivers in Toronto are incredibly unsafe. Bike lanes save lives. I have had multiple friends hit and some have passed away due to cycling accidents in this city. Do not remove any bike lanes.

Removing the bike lanes from the city of Toronto isn't going to decrease the amount of bike traffic or gridlock in the city, active transportation is here to stay.

Removing bike lane infrastructure is a waste of tax payer money and does nothing to improve life for the average citizen of Ontario. Focus on important issues and stop wasting time and money. I use the bike lanes in Toronto, daily, and removing them will make my commute more dangerous.

This Bill represents yet another idiotic attempt by the Ford government to avoid actual responsibility for protecting road-users and addressing traffic congestion issues. The Ford government is using bike lanes and bike-users as scapegoats on which to blame gridlock.

Bike lines save lives, and do not cause grid lock.
leave the City streets to municipalities, and let municipalities do what is best for their cities, and residents of their cities.
