Bikes v cars: backlash after Ontario premier threatens to tear up cycling lanes in Toronto
Doug Ford plans to rip out bike lanes on busy streets, citing ‘insanity’ of gridlock he says they contribute to
Here's a video from Oh The Urbanity!, a resident of Toronto, on the stupidity of removing these specific bike lanes, and the insanity of Ontario making expensive, self-destructive traffic decisions for Toronto's residents.
Oh The Urbanity! is a couple, and they live in Montreal. They previously lived in Toronto, but I think it's been a decade or more.
Ah, OK. They seemed to know the streets well and the ongoing political process, at least.
That sub is so toxic. I fully support vote reform, though my preferred system is ranked choice/mixed member proportional. Any comments asking legitimate questions about how 100% proportion representation would work in Canada is shot down, and often deleted.
I'm not a fan of straight proportional representation, because it undercuts and devalues ridings and constituencies.
I'm not going to pretend to know the real solution though.
