There it is, folks, the Ford Government wants us dead.

I was never a hostile cyclist, but I guess I'll need to become one in order to fight against this war for personal safety.

Here's to hoping that DoFo and his cult get stuck in traffic for an eternity.

Bike volumes will probably significantly reduce due to dangerous nature of biking among traffic, which is probably exactly what DoFo wants.

I'm not sure. I would bike on those streets before bike lanes, and the lanes have "taught" people how to ride bikes. For Bloor, There are side street routes east of high park/Dundas. College is ok. Short spurts on Dundas and Bloor (though this is high speed parts of those streets). After Humber river, west, there's more side street routes. Hopefully at least a painted lane still exists on those stretches, but it is not a parking area.

Yeah, I feel like someone should make bumper stickers that say something like, "If it was safe, I'd be on my bike instead, and out of your way."
