My thoughts:

Well marked on street bike lanes in residential areas on collector streets.
Major roads and up should have a dedicated bike lanes
Downtown, and busy areas should have separated bike lanes.

Change provincial legislation to add category, and specific rules for bikes. Currently, they have to be classified as either a vehicle or a pedestrian. Allow such things as rolling stops at stop signs for bikes.

Implement other operational tweaks that other citys have done, to make biking safer. Bike boxes, etc.

Well marked bike lanes, not just the stencils we have every 100m or so down some collector roads.

Education for bikers and motorists.

Large network of snow clearing/sweeping.

Incorporate bike specific infrastructure with every new transportation project.
