In the city of toronto, they have Mr. Rob Ford running for Mayor. He is know for really stupid outburst, like the one against HIV/ AIDS victims. However, the one he made about cyclists is really stupid.

Good Logic Mr Ford.

He's just jealous cause he's fat

Can't support bike lanes, because people shouldn't be riding, because the roads aren't safe, because they aren't designed for cyclists, because he can't support bike lanes, because.......

And somehow this is our own fault!

Can you believe this guy is running for Mayor?

I'm pretty sure that's Mel Lastman and his son. Ah, that commercial takes me back to my days of watching the new VR, CHEX, and global on the family's antenna.

Oh come on guys.. dont you know anything? The only legitimate way of getting around is driving. Heck, let's take out the sidewalks and have drive-thru shopping, so we can all have resting HRs of 130.

Ford has it right.! if bikers want to ride on the roads they should pay annual fees just like the people who drive cars. They are a bunch of whiners.

Rob has already impessed me..sorry if the free loaders of society aren't impressed.

What always amazes me is that some drivers who complain about cyclists not paying, do not seem to realize that a number of cyclists own cars and pay for insurance etc. In Quebec, I wonder how many cyclists have a driver's license and thus pay annually to keep it, but do not own cars? Then again when did critical, intelligent thought ever become relevant to this type of discussion?

"FREE LOADERS OF SOCIETY"
the ones that can't afford cars
can't afford the subway or bus on a daily basis
can't afford to live within walking distance of their place of work

yea, let's make those freeloaders pay

And in the case of many city dwellers, I now pay many thousands in taxes. And I don't own a car, but a large part of it goes to building roads. I do use roads on my bike, but weighing in well under 200 pounds even on my commuter loaded with groceries, I don't cause a significant amount of wear and tear. Furthermore, I need very little room for parking... And let's not even get into the debate of how much I pay for health care versus how much I benefit vs drivers, or the cost to the health system from having so many cars around.
