An Ontario court has ruled that the law enacted by Premier Doug Ford's government to remove bike lanes in Toronto is unconstitutional. The decision, delivered by Justice Paul Schabas, found that bike lanes constitute a right protected under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. This ruling effectively prevents the provincial government from dismantling bike lanes in the city. The judgment has sparked debate about judicial authority, with some commentators criticizing the court's interpretation as judicial overreach, noting that Justice Schabas has assumed a decisive role in bike lane policy that is not subject to electoral accountability. The ruling has prompted discussions on the implications for urban planning and cyclists' rights in Ontario.
