The Ford government is promising to pay the cost of removing bike lanes from major city streets that fail to meet its unannounced criteria as it ploughs ahead with a plan to limit biking infrastructure and rip out some routes.

How useful really is transit if everyone has to drive to their train station? The fact they greenlit so much rail should mean they should be fighting for more bike lanes, not less.

I'm in total agreement with you about supporting bike lanes, I'm just pointing out the fallacy of saying, "We can't afford to build rail."
