    Well, that's a fair concern given that our city will lose up to 25 kilometers of bike lanes due to Bill 212. That's why we went out and mapped alternate routes that cyclists can use instead of Yonge Street, Bloor Street and University Avenue. But...that's not as easy as it sounds. We used Google Maps paired with the Toronto Cycling Network Map to calculate what would be the fastest route that still takes you along existing cycling infrastructure.

    We want to acknowledge that the land on which The Green Line operates is the traditional territory of many nations, including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples. Today, it is home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples from across Turtle Island. We also acknowledge that Toronto is covered by Treaty 13 with the Mississaugas of the Credit. Our team is grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land.

    How to choose who to vote for? Well, that's up to you. To help you make an informed decision, we collected information on where the Ontario Liberal Party, Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario, the Ontario New Democratic Party and the Green Party of Ontario stands when it comes to The Green Line's five pillars of liveability: housing, jobs, food, commuting and health. The Greens and NDP sent us their statements by email.
