Former Toronto Mayor John Tory is weighing a political comeback.

He was the leader of the Ontario conservative party before he became mayor and it shows.

Even for the so-called fiscal conservatives, Tory increased the city's budget by 20% in the first year after taking over from Rob Ford. Decades of conservative mayors and premiers have done serious damage to the city.

To fight despair, organize. Find and join your local advocacy groups for transit, cycling, etc. Many improvements that happen are the result of fierce advocacy behind the scenes.

It is used by just as many healthcare workers too who were the primary driver behind getting them built. Mount Sinai Hospital and Sick Kids strongly opposed Bill 212. It will clog the roads with car traffic and those who continue to cycle will be in danger.

63% of Mount Sinai Hospital staff cycle to work.

Agreesd, Ford is going to push lots of Toronto even further away from the cons with this move. It only pleases the outer suburbs, even though it worsens their commute by forcing more people to drive and add to the car traffic.

The loud minority was shooting Bloor West in the foot. The Bloor West BIA used to oppose bike lanes until they changed their minds after they went in and saw the positive impacts. They are now defending them, backed by several economic impact studies which found that 90% of customers arrived by foot, bicycle, or transit. This is consistent with similar situations around the world.

Turning the bike lane back into roadside parking and short sections of car lanes before the next chokepoint will be bad for business and cost lives.
