Bike lanes save lives.

Incredible turnout to protest #Bill212 and the removal of bike lanes. Bike lanes save lives and are worth fighting for. #BikeTO #ONpoli #TOpoli

Hundreds of people gathering at High Park to demonstrate how important bike lanes are for safety and sustainability.

Drivers too often put their own convenience above the safety of others, even when there is parking just a few feet away, and Doug Ford's anti-bicycle rhetoric further emboldens these drivers to break the law and put lives at risk.

How do we know this is nonsense? b/c the Progressive Conservative's amended #Bill212 to prevent people from suing for harm/death from bike lane removal, and studies show bike lanes improve safety for everyone. The PC's have become a party of science-denial and cronyism. #BikeTO #TOpoli #ONpoli

With bike lanes being ripped up, it's a good time to remind everyone of the legal rights of cyclists under Ontario's Highway Traffic Act.

Doug Ford conveniently and disingenuously leaves out that the traffic was caused by the Santa Claus Parade. Removing bike lanes just forces more people to drive and will make traffic even worse. He needs to focus on finishing public transit projects. #TOpoli #ONpoli #BikeTO

There are no "secondary streets" for Yonge St.
Mt. Pleasant & Avenue Rd. are the only other North/South roads.
Doug Ford simply wants bike lanes gone, despite the actual data, and study after study, showing economic, health, environmental, and safety benefits of bike lanes.

Recent study shows that bicycles along Bloor in The Annex account for ~37% of all road traffic during rush hour.

The fact that the 401, 400, DVP, QEW, Gardiner (and many more) are regularly a bump-to-bumper standstill, and that none of them have bike lanes, should make it clear that bike lanes and bicycles are not the problem.

Bathurst St. on a typical Saturday afternoon. No bike lanes, but still bumper-to-bumper traffic just crawling along. Improving public transit and bicycle infrastructure gets people out of cars, which means less traffic for everyone. #TOpoli #ONpoli #BikeTO

A huge and passionate crowd gathered at Queen's Park to let Doug Ford know that bicycle infrastructure saves lives and is a key part of *actually* addressing traffic congestion. More people biking = less people driving. #BikeTO #TOpoli #ONpoli
