The brainless premier of Alberta is attempting to do the same with Edmonton and Calgary bike lanes.

That’s a decent W

Note that they put the ruling at the bottom of the article; I didn’t initially see it and was having a hard time finding the text online.

Also note that the government appears to be appealing the ruling, so probably going to be more to the story.

So, I’m studying law, and this was one of the first things I analyzed. I expected the constitutional challenge would win.

I suspect if they’re granted leave to appeal higher, it’ll lose there, too.

But as always, there are ways the government of Ontario can push it through despite a court ruling.

This title and article confuses me. After reading the article it seems like there were a few lanes of traffic that were originally normal road lanes, but had been converted to bicycle only lanes at some point, and they are now talking about converting them back into normal traffic lanes. Where is the law in this? This sounds like a civil engineering exercise not a legal one. Did someone sue the government over this? The article title made it seem like the government was trying to ban bicycle lanes, but the article paints a very different picture.

Edit: I’m talking about the title of this post that says “Canadian judge rules law to remove bike lanes is unconstitutional, cyclists have a right to safety”

Edit 2: did the article title change after this was posted? If not this post seems to be violating the rule that the post title must match the article headline.

Yessssss
