Ford: "Quick! Bring out section 33, the not with standing clause, to nullify your section 7 charter rights to be protected from smooth brain drivers"

I have this conspiracy that because so much of Canadas economy (specifically Ontario) is based on car manufacturing, politicians want to maximize car-dependency. It would make sense in the context of this bill as well

Alberta’s provincial government is trying to pull similar nonsense.

Who would win in a court of law:
A: The Ontario government literally making up BS to justify removing bike lanes in Toronto
B: Decades of extensive evidence supporting bike lanes and the government ITSELF admitting that removing bike lanes will get people killed and won't reduce congestion
The 41-page ruling was a complete and utter smackdown on Doug Ford's government, who had absolutely no evidence to back their claims. It's hilarious. Even a newborn child would have the intellect to rule against them.
Apparently, they even tried to move the bike lane removal law onto a DIFFERENT bill as an attempt to make this case moot 🤦
Ford's government will still appeal the case, so this technically isn't over, but they just took the biggest L in the history of L's.
Huge shoutout to Cycle Toronto for winning this case. Please please check them out and consider donating!
