Reports have come out that the Ontario government plans to bring forward legislation that would block the installation of bike lanes where motor vehicle lanes would have to be reduced.

Maybe we should all start riding our bikes right in the middle of traffic. Sorry you're late for work, but I'm helping reduce gridlock by riding 20kmh! Maybe if we had a bike lane I could be out of the way!

I agree with the need to end Fords madness, but why does a petition need my phone number? It's a required field? No thanks.

Anyway you could could petition to for with every signature in Ontario on it and it'll still get ignored. Fords getting kick backs from road construction contracts. He knows ripping out bike lanes means there's just going to be more contracts when sensible leaders take over to put them all back in. Even if he loses the next election he's going to make a killing on this.

I've done that part for what it's worth.
