I'm Shannon Devine and I am thrilled to introduce myself as the NDP candidate for Beaches–East York in the upcoming federal election. This is not a decision or a responsibility that I am taking lightly. I have worked alongside many of you over the years on campaigns and elections in Beaches–East York.
TORONTO – New Democrats in Beaches – East York came together to nominate Kate Dupuis, long time BEY resident, health care professional, and champion for seniors, to be the Ontario NDP candidate in Beaches – East York for the next election.
On October 16th , Doug Ford’s Minister of Transportation announced new legislation that would allow the province to oversee proposed new bike lines in municipalities- all 444 of them- across Ontario. Then, on Thursday, Doug Ford suggested that he would not only restrict new bike lanes, but would look into destroying existing ones.
Research supports the use of bike lanes for safe, healthy, vital communities. Removing bike lanes will not get drivers out of gridlock. Bike lanes help people get around our communities safely. Bike lanes are good for our health. Bike lanes help tackle climate change. Bike lanes are even good for small businesses.
