Farmland conversion and landfill sites

Yes, but the fundamental problem is that most of the province is built to be car dependent. It is dangerous and difficult to get around by bike or transit instead of cars. And unfortunately, we're making negative progress. DoFo is in the process of ripping out bike lanes in Toronto....

Some folks like to pretend that there is a "war on cars"...but that isn't true...however there *IS* a war on bikes right now.

Well, I have never owned a car and have managed to get around by bike and public transit for over 50 years. Admittedly, there are many places I have never visited because intercity transit is either poor or non-existent, but I have regularly cycled in the country around Waterloo Region.

I'm not sure what you're saying here? I also lived in WR without a car for several years. But are you suggesting that the region is not largely car dependent? I'm not sure what you're suggesting.
