A little harder here in the past 5 minutes but still light. Looking at the highway cams, that green stuff hitting the Sunshine Coast is on the light side, too.
It's called clown range for a reason.

I mean other than the law, environmental reasons, and lowering vehicle traffic volume, I'm not sure why these entitled cyclists think they have a right to the road their taxes pay for? It's far more important that us drivers can get to the next light faster so we can check our phones and wait 15 seconds before noticing the light has turned green.
I know right? I pay gas taxes so I am entitled to the road, well, I used to, now I drive an EV and I don't pay any of those taxes anymore but darn it I used to so that should count for something! Someone riding a bike has never in their lives riven a car, thus never paid any tax so they can't use roads. Now don't get me started on people parking on the road in front of my house. Oh boy.
Why not try cycling to work, grocery store, anywhere!

This is the kind of snowfall where it could snow for days but we wouldn't accumulate even 1 cm. Quebec's classic.

By the way, how does the road funding break down in Canada? In the States, gas taxes pay for the major highways but don't come close to paying for the side streets or the secondary roads. The latter are paid for mainly via property taxes. And of course those are the ones most popular with cyclists (because who likes riding a bike on a busy highway).

Sky is getting noticeably lighter here and nowhere near as many flakes are falling.
