Ontario's Doug Ford government is celebrating a major legal win in the ongoing battle over bike lanes in Downtown Toronto.

Cyclists and activists are unhappy about the decision. "I think it's crazy, absolutely crazy that we're debating bike lanes in 2026? Like what other world-class city is debating bike lanes?
