Environmentalists are delighted by the fact that Quebec's economy minister said the province's automobile fleet should be cut in half. Car dealers, on the other hand, are worried.
Unfortunately, the prime minister won’t endorse his minister.
I won’t disagree with you. I interpret the Minister’s remarks as suggesting that we should make it so that at least half of Quebecoise have the option of going carless, and choose to take it. I don’t think anyone is seriously advocating for a ban on cars without any investment in alternatives.
Not literally anyone. Poor people don’t require cars. Funny, right? How do poor people manage without a car OR money, when everyone else apparently needs both?
If you were poor, you wouldn’t have a car. Like tens of thousands of other people in Ontario, I survive on 13k a year. How many km do you think I walk (or rather bike because I’m not a total moron and I’m fortunate enough to still own one) in a year to get groceries? It’s more viable than fucking starving.
