I am writing to express my strong opposition to Bill 212. As a recent transplant to Toronto from Los Angeles, California, I chose to settle here because of its vibrant, walkable, and bike-friendly downtown core. Read more

The provincial government must forget the 1950's and its now out-of-date push for more highways and use of the automobile as main vehicle of transport. Both its pollution and misuse of land is a disaster for both our current and future needs. Read more

I have lived in this city (Toronto) for nearly 22 years and in this Province my entire life (47 years). This is a step backwards for our beautiful city and province and a stain on the country as a whole. Do you ever travel to city's where cars ARE NOT the priority? Read more

This is yet another example of provincial over-reach into municipal jurisdiction, of bullying, of disregarding the safety of those who do not own cars, of putting people's lives in danger, of pretending that air quality, climate change and a more livable city don't matter. Read more

This won't fix anything and waste of our tax money. Adding more lanes cause more traffic. You really thinking ripping out 10 years tax money and infrastructure upgrades is a good thing?

The removal of existing bike lanes in Toronto on major roads is not only a waste of taxpayer resources but a vindictive play that doesn't consider the Toronto citizens that use alternative forms of transportation. Read more

Removing bike lanes is counter productive and a gross misuse of public funds. These bike lanes are used CONSTANTLY, every day, every hour, and help thousands of people do their work, get to work, get home, SAFELY. DO NOT REMOVE THE BIKE LANES!!

Please do not get rid of any bike lanes in Toronto. Internationally, this city has started to receive accolades for the way cyclists are supported. Why change that now? I do not have a car, I go to work on my bike or on the TTC. My bike is far more reliable than the TTC at this time. Read more

As one who is a driver, pedestrian and cyclist at different times depending on my trip, it is difficult to fathom that any government in 2024 would consider such backwards, vindictive legislation as Bill 212. Read more

I use bike lanes to move across the city all year long. I urge the province to do some research on how bike lanes in other countries have improved movement throughout cities. I strongly opposes Bill 212. Stay in your lane.

A community works best when all are considered a part of the whole. Cars should not be at the top of the hierarchy. All modes of movement need to be included and coordinated.
