What would it take to get you to switch from using a car to a bicycle?
- Thread starter CBC News
- Start date
Just as soon as:
Every rich, fat, politician and corporate leech climbs on, I'm in.
Local bus and trains are re-introduced so we can go from small town to small town without a 6 hour wait in Ottawa or Toronto.
Small towns invest in local buses which run on time
The CBC gets a brain.
Looks like I"m carrin fer a bit.

Not wanting to pad the pockets of politicians and oil company CEOs drives me to bike instead of drive. Not wanting to die of a heart attack does too. And wanting some extra pocket money. Sure... it's not a complete switchover (I have yet to figure out how to get a giant jug of Tide home in my bike basket), but, it's a start.
No car to switch from:-( No bike either! If the weather wasn't a problem,I'd love one of those electricbicycle hybrids..just to propel this old body up our steep hills]
Open a store a LOT closer....
Better medical care....
Better physical condition....
Less hillage (up variety. Down is cool)
A little more youth....

I have one of those kiddy trailer that attach to the rear of the Nuggcycle, Karrie. Carries loads like a bugger. Just a suggestion.
Wheeelinnug.
woops, that's Karrie with a K...........sorry
Why is everyone so eager to embrace this new poverty? Do we really want Canada to look like old photos of China where everyone is on a bike? It means that much to us to let our elite sell our oil to the USA that we are willing to do this? It's our oil people. There should be a push on to nationalize our reserves!
Anyway, I don't live in an urban centre so giving up a vehicle isn't an option - not that I would.

I have never owned a GM vehicle, and I have never leased any vehicle whatsoever, so it doesn't make any difference to me.
The idea of renting a car for 2 or 3 years makes no sense to my wallet.
