The Ontario Greens Leader, Mike Schreiner, has criticized the Ford government’s newly passed bill that aims to eliminate bike lanes in Toronto and bypass environmental assessments for Highway 413. Schreiner highlighted the bill’s implications for cyclist safety, noting that it prioritizes highway expansion over sustainable transportation solutions. He argues that the government is exacerbating traffic issues rather than addressing them by removing essential infrastructure for biking and public transit. The statement calls for more effective transit options and safer commuting alternatives for Ontario communities.
