I can appreciate attempts to address the traffic issues in Toronto. However, removing bike lanes is not a real solution. This will endanger and discourage bikers. Biking is part of the culture of dense urban areas like Toronto.

I am a young conservative and frankly I am appalled by this, it feels like pretending to do something about traffic and subsequently will not improve traffic and will endanger more lives.
Please reverse course,
A young male who has historically voted Ford
We need bike lanes in the city, and we need government who is willing to advocate for bikers instead of making more obstacles to getting them. For climate, for those who want to save money on transportation, for general safety measures we need access to bike lanes.
I live in Toronto and can’t afford to drive. It’s really expensive to live in the city. I ride my bike because I have you. I use Bloor Street and University Street. By taking away the bicycle lanes you’re endangering my life I strongly oppose this bill.

This bill is awful for Ontarians. It degrades property rights and won't even fix any of the problems it says it's for.
I wouldn't vote for anyone who agrees with this bill.
The prioritization of cars over alternative modes of transportation is an exercise in backward thinking. As the population continues to grow, it is simply not feasible to expect efficient, single-occupancy vehicles commutes through major urban centers.

I am writing to express my strong opposition to provincial plans to remove bike lanes that we have paid for and that residents of Toronto use on a daily basis.

As a resident of Toronto who resides metres from Bloor street, I strongly appose this bill. The bike lanes on Bloor St allow for cycling traffic and travel safely and efficiently across one of the City's main through ways. I travel by car and bicycle regularly on Bloor St., and Dupont st.

As a driver and a cyclist I know the dangers of biking in the city. I also know that most of the issues we see with cars are from lack of enforcement of traffic and parking laws and too many cars on the roads.

Removing bike lanes is the wrong thing to do. The best way to reduce traffic congestion is to discourage unnecessary car use. Make the city accessible by making cycling and public transportation easy and pleasant and affordable. Cars pollute and kill.

Keep the bike lanes. They save countless lives which is way more valuable than saving a few minutes of traffic. Let’s be real, even if the bike lanes were taken out, we wouldn’t save that much time on the roads.

I would like to express my concern regarding Bill 212, which proposes the removal of bike lanes along Bloor, University, and Yonge streets in Toronto to accommodate increased vehicular traffic flow.

We need bike lanes in Toronto and to keep us safe. Terrible idea to rip out bike lanes. Would be better to stop the implementation of new ones without better consulting.
