"Reducing traffic congestion" is well below "dealing with climate change and protecting the environment".
Yet Ford claims that traffic is one of the biggest issues for Ontarians, and is doing everything to make sure that climate change guardrails are ignored or abolished while he tries to force another unnecessary highway onto protected land.
FWIW, the plans to spend tens of billions on a tunnel, and a new highway, and to remove bike lanes... negatively impact the cost of living, healthcare, and housing affordability (the actual top concerns).
Because creating more car infrastructure is unsustainable, so more taxes go to supporting it, but you never get back benefits in return.
Please don't vote for this idiot. He's making all our lives more difficult.
