For folks who are interested, Justice Schabas’s actual judgment makes for engaging and invigorating reading. He has little time for the government’s lazy, BS “reasoning” and he makes it crystal clear why.

(Edited to correct “Judge Schabas" to “Justice Schabas”)

Schabas's ruling on Toronto bike lanes is great reading! He repeatedly points out the Ontario government's case has no evidence, or is contrary to the evidence, and was contrary to the government's own CIMA report, which they took a long time to reveal.

ie. Doug Ford et. al. lied by omission, lied outright, then lied and tried to hide it.

And the cherry on top: Cycle Toronto was represented pro bono, but Schabas awarded their counsel $200,000 in costs anyway!
