@fordnation Bike lanes are not only safe, but they also help reduce traffic and serve as an affordable mode of transportation.
It's time to #ReverseBill212 and invest in safe and sustainable transportation options like public transit and bike lanes act.gp/3Zg20bv

"Shellnutt said the video that was entered in court didn’t show anyone making any threats. Shellnutt said his legal team entered it into evidence thinking the charge would be dropped quickly. Instead, it wound its way through the justice system for a year-and-a-half before the charges were withdrawn recently." cp24.com/local/toronto/2026/…

I’ve sat in committee all day listening to people speak about Bill 212, the bill that speeds up highway construction and rips out bike lanes.
Not a single person has come to speak in support of ripping out the Yonge, Bloor, and University Ave bike lanes, and restricting municipalities from creating new bike lanes.
Not a single one.
