Who's to say that the Ford Government won't ban cycling on all major roads? (lemmy.ca)

Why would he stop at removing bike lanes?

The MTO is on his side, and when his plan to reduce and remove bike lanes fails to ease traffic congestion (hint: because they aren't causing it), why wouldn't he go after banning all cycling from major roads using the same reasoning (that cycling itself is the cause of all our traffic problems)?

I don't see any end to his overreach, and it'll be a matter of time before ebikes, then regular bikes, become highly restricted in Ontario.

Convince me otherwise.

With right wing populism any stupid thing is possible. How could I convince you otherwise when it's totally possible? Populist are always looking for their next outrage target to throw their simple solutions at.
