There are thousands of jobs lost downtown. The Tim Hortons near my building used ti have 15 minute lineups in the morning. Now you can walk straight up to the counter most mornings and rarely is the line more han a handful of people deep. And thats for a coffee for under $2.
When all those jobs disappeared so did a lot of high salaries, big bonuses and a lot if disposable income. On top of that, a lot of corporate expense accounts disappeared. Blaming bike lanes is a joke.
