Petition Pushes for Cycling Policy Improvements

A cyclist named C. Tomasini has launched a petition campaign asking the Federal Government to promote cycling as a preferred means of transportation in Canada. The petition asks for changes to policy as concrete steps to enable more Canadians to cycle, and it also asks that the government make a strong statement in support cycling as a preferred means of transportation. The following policy changes are suggested in the document: a) Offering a tax credit to bicycle commuters. b) Setting up a government supported, employer administered bike-to-work incentive program. c) Tax incentives to employers to install bike lockers and showers. d) The removal of GST from bikes and bike accessories.
