I'm appalled at this proposal. Myself and my family (including two children under age 10) regularly use the bike lanes to traverse the City of Toronto, including those that are immediately targeted for removal (without any sense of if/when alternatives would be provided). Read more

This proposed legislation is unwarranted regulation and bureaucracy that will cost tax payers more than any supposed benefit could justify. The province need not create any new regulations on cities lest it boat the bureaucracy, duplicate checks and impede local development. Read more

I do not understand how Bill 212 is at all compatible with a fiscally conservative government. This bill not only extends government overreach, it proposes wasting tax dollars in order to do so. I paid $170,000 (rounded down) in income tax last year. Read more

I appreciate the opportunity to discuss Ontario's Bill 212. Let me be clear: this bill raises significant concerns for our province. It’s essential that we prioritize the voices of Ontarians and ensure that any legislation reflects their needs and values. Read more

I live in downtown Toronto, and bike lanes are one of the best things to happen to this city in a very long time. I take my bike all the time because it is significantly faster than driving and public transport. I deserve just as much as a driver to have a safe way to get around and get to work. Read more

I am writing to strongly oppose Bill 212. Bike lanes should be a municipal decision, built according to the needs and desires of the municipality in which bike lanes serve as important transportation infrastructure. Read more

Bike lanes are vital for heroine bicyclists safe in the city. The traffic is bad enough and it is NOT because of bike lanes. I've been both a cyclist and driver in Toronto. Keep the bike lanes. Make more bike lanes. They are vital infrastructure to keep people moving in Toronto.

I am conservative and will vote Conservative at the next election. That said - removing bike lanes is socialist overreach. Bike gives freedom in the city to move around much faster that using a car. Hands off our lanes!

I am writing to express my strong opposition to the Ontario government’s recent bill that would allow the province to ban and remove bike lanes, and we urge you to vote against this misguided legislation. Read more
