Cycling in Waterloo Region

[danbrotherston]

Future bike lanes banned by new provincial legislation
Bill 60 also blocks the creation of bus-only lanes, wider sidewalks and some forms of traffic-calming measures.


Doug Ford and his car brain supporters are enemies of the people of Ontario. He wants cyclists and pedestrians to die. Fucking asshole!

That's a whole lot worse than just the anti-bike angle. Does this bill still leave room for seeking exceptions from the province? Does it have implications for LRT expansion where lanes need to be removed?

Doesn’t matter if there are exceptions. This will kill all progress. At this point Ontario is the last place in Canada I’d move to. Zero future prospects.

I dunno. It makes me very depressed the direction Canada and especially Ontario is going. The world isn’t exactly inspiring but between the federal liberals infatuation with Alberta’s oil industry and Ontarios war on people outside of cars, it seems like the “at least we are better than the Americans” identity that is so central to Canadians is as tenuous as I’ve ever seen it.
