So, when this plan inevitably results in MORE traffic congestion, who will Ford target next? Pedestrians and the removal of sidewalks?

And Transportation Minister Sarkaria should honestly be ashamed of himself for the way he blames and attacks cycling infrastructure. Is he the transportation minister or the cars-only minister?

      Addicts, with a backdoor campaign against the homeless without having to come right out and say it.

    Ford doesn’t give a shit.

    This is just distraction, like beer in corner stores. He’s learned that retail politics gets traction and energizes his base. If he could give out money directly, he would.

    Oh wait, he did do that. And he’s about to do it again.

      This is just distraction

      I think this is far worse than a distraction. He’s creating more division between people, and actually putting lives at risk.

      In a press conference the other day, he actually went a step further about “no new bikes” and suggested that we actually REMOVE bike lanes. He also doubled-down on his stupid fucking tunnel under the 401.

      He’s already stripped away power from municipalities when it came to doing environmental assessments before building more urban sprawl, but this is just way more fuel to the fire.
