I am in support of the bill. The data that the City of Toronto uses is biased to biking. In a recent public meeting about Bloor bike lanes the City stated delays as being 4 minutes on average.

This is dumb. Seriously. As a driver you know what slows me down? When I have to give space to a cyclist in front of me to maintain their safety and my own.

Cyclist and driver here. More bike lanes are needed, but maybe on none main streets. Get licensing going for cyclists so they can navigate the street better and have alternate routes made for Google maps.

I do not like this proposal.
In general, a strong bike network will reduce motor vehicle traffic as more cars are off the road and the remaining vehicles can achieve better efficiency even with fewer lanes. This can be seen in many studies across the globe.

Why only prioritize drivers getting where they need to. Public transit is a better way to get people out of space hogging cars and into better modes of transit. People only drive and clog the roads cause we have limited options to travel another way.

The is the most counterproductive and ignorant policy the government could have introduced. All the evidence says bike lanes DO NOT cause congestion, they actually reduce the number of cars on the road because people can bike instead of drive.

This Bill embodies many things that the Ford office has stood for throughout its tenure. It represents a horrible regression in policy and legislation, as well as a grossly irresponsible use of taxpayer dollars and public servant resources.

This is by far the stupidest thing I’ve seen the Ontario government put forth. Why would you waste tax payers money removing infrastructure that’s primary purpose is to provide safety & convenience to bikers which in turn gets more people biking.

This is populist provincial over-reach at its worst. You need to step away and let the city decide what works for the people of Toronto. As a driver, cyclist, Torontonian AND tax paying Ontario citizen, I approve of, and support bike lanes.

Our family relies on safe circling infrastructure. Cycling infrastructure decisions need to remain with the people who live here.
Go find something else to do Ford. This doesn’t need “fixing”.
I am a Toronto (and Ontario and Canadian) taxpayer. I fully support the provincial government stepping in when municipalities are not using taxpayer funds prudently.

This is an absolutely terrible policy that should not be considered. As someone who is unable to drive, due to a disability, I rely on biking to get to work and move around Toronto.

I am writing to express my deep concern and strong opposition to Bill 212, which seeks to prevent the construction of new bike lanes in Toronto and potentially dismantle existing ones.

This legislation adds more red tape to Ontario, and will make traffic worse. We should allow municipalities to do what is best for their situation without waiting around for the province.
Why not just take our tax money and throw it into a pit and burn it. The incompetence of this government is staggering. Stop wasting taxpayer money on things that will make our province worse.

1) Bike lanes make things faster and safer for everyone. As a car-driver, I neither want to get too close to cyclists in the same lane, nor do I want to have to change lanes to pass them. Both are dangerous, even for drivers; changing lanes is when a lot of accidents happen.

Please get bikes off the road and take back the streets … if you can ride your bike to work you should use public transportation
Bikes on the roads are damgerous
