This attempt by the premier is misguided and distractionary. Please focus on what is important, healthcare, housing, not selling public assets off for private profit etc. Stop making your buddies richer and stop meddling in Toronto politics.

This is an incredibly idiotic idea on behalf of the Ontario Government! Not only do bike lanes REDUCE gridlock and congestion on public roads, public transit, and sidewalks, they also SAVE LIVES!! Read more

The bike lanes portion of this bill represents several steps backwards in terms of traffic management. Bike lanes reduce traffic by encouraging people to use more ecologically friendly means of transportation. The bill also represents undue interference in municipal affairs. Read more

Removing bike lanes will impact pedectrian and cyclist safety, while only shaving a few minutes off a driver’s commute. Safe streets save lives. Please reconsider this bill - people continue to die due to poor road safety and cyclist protections.

This is a non-problem. People like biking, people don't like traffic. Biking helps elevate traffic as seen all over the world EXCEPT Canada because government policies like this are only for the car lobbies not the people. Read more

As a Toronto resident, I am appalled at the provincial government's approach to this issue. Premier Doug Ford shows that he either does not understand or does not care about the complexity of the transportation problems in Toronto and how it effects Toronto residents and visitors. Read more

Cars are the cause of congestion. Encouraging more driving is a losing strategy to reduce congestion. Instead of addressing actual issues and presenting proven methods of reducing congestion this bill will only increase it. Read more

As a resident of Toronto who does not have a car, and has used public transit for decades, I'd like to think I have a pretty good nose by now for when the Conservatives are just trying to score points with suburban voters by ignoring experts, throwing urban residents under the bus, and just going wi Read more

Removing bike lanes is only going to make congestion worse and increase safety risks for multiple commuters. Please base this decision on facts and other major cities in the world. Increasing commuting options and investing in bikes and public transit is the key for the future. Read more

I don't think it is the role of the Province to influence any local legislation like this one. Or does the Province want to have the Federal level intervene on such matters as well and by pass it? Isn't it a waste of everyone's energy and time? Read more

As a driver and commuter I do not believe this bill will help reduce traffic. For every bicycle there are, that is one less car on our roads. Less cars means less traffic. Destroying bike lanes means turning more cyclists into drivers which adds MORE cars to the roads and causes MORE traffic. Read more

Bill 212 is lunacy! Bike lanes provide healthy, economical and safe transportation for thousands of Ontarians everyday. They reduce congestion and contribute to the local economy. There is no doubt of this. Read more

Tearing up bike lanes in the city of Toronto is not only going to create more congestion but create a drastically more unsafe environment for the most vulnerable people who share the road, cyclists, e-bikers and other more manual based vehicles. Read more
