Bike lanes save lives! 2024 has the most cyclist deaths since 2006 in Toronto and the years not even over. Congestion can be solved by better funded public transit and bike lanes ; in Finland, folks ages 8-80 bike year round in a city no bigger than Guelph Ontario.

Besides spending tax payer money unnecessarily. Bill 212 is a backward move in terms of environmental protection, among other issues. Many people, including young and old adults, cannot afford to drive motorized vehicles. Read more

It is a waste of taxpayers money to rip out the bike lanes!!. As someone who lives in downtown Toronto, we pay a premium to live here and with that should come the right and the accessibility to bike safely on the street. Our taxes should not go to accommodate those who live outside of the city. Read more

This portion of Bill 212 has been overfocused on by the government in an attempt to portray Bill 212 as a bike lane bill and to hide all the other items they are trying to push through. Read more

This deeply impacts my ability to travel within the city I live in and creates a safety hazard for cyclists and drivers. I do not support this. It will lead to traffic accidents and further congestion as cyclists will have to share the road with drivers.

Dear Premier Ford, I wish to express my opposition to the passing of Bill 212 which would eradicate specific bike lanes in Downtown Toronto and require the City to ask permission from the Province to create new bike lanes.. Read more

What an absurd decision. These should be choices for local communities, not micro managed by the province. It’s absolute over reach and shows no vision and no understanding of traffic.

If, as the title of this bill suggests, the province is interested in reducing gridlock then there is a super clear way forward: build more bike lanes! Improve public transport! Read more

Bike lanes are essential for public safety! Remove bike lanes and more people have to drive and take transit and that puts more people in already congested channels. Read more

Removing bike lanes? This is ridiculous. An NHL hockey player just recent was hit and killed along with his brother, biking on a road with no bike lanes. This proposal is a slap in the face to our society and canadian way of life, not to mention to our nature and eco system. Read more

This is overreach by the Ford government to propose ripping out newly constructed infrastructure invested in making cycling in Toronto safe. The provincial government is also intruding on municipal jurisdiction far too often. Read more
