It’s cute but this is from the same province that would rather blame immigrant drivers for road fatalities than the failing, inconsistent infrastructure and terrible driver training.

In Montreal, the drivers are bad enough that turning right on red lights was banned because we couldn’t stop killing pedestrians.

Turning on right policy was never enabled in Montreal. And wtf you going on about blaming immigrant drivers? Source please, because this sounds like some divisive bullshit from the ROC.

Because Ontario doesn't test truck drivers, Quebec wanted to ban them.

On paper we test but it's really corrupt and companies are basically given x number of licenses.

I imagine this person took it to thinking they were mad that they are majority immigrants rather than living in Ontario and seeing how unsafe our roads have gotten.
