You’ll surely read a lot in the NP’s pages about the Wednesday ruling by Ontario Superior Court Justice Paul Schabas which found that the province’s plans to remove exclusive bike lanes on some key Toronto arteries is contrary to the Charter of Rights. Legal conservatives will argue that this decision, if upheld on appeal, amounts to an arrogation of further new powers by a Canadian judiciary that has already been running amok for 50 years. They will characterize it as a matter of scribbling a “right to bike lanes” into the Charter.
