In almost-related biker news

A man got knocked off his bike outside my folk's place in England last week. No drivers stopped to help him until a neighbour driving by noticed a red back-light glowing in the grass. Bill stopped in the road (no pavements near the old house) and subsequently got beeped at for stopping in the road. The ambulance then took 20 minutes to make the 2 minute drive to their house and it took 20 minutes to get the guy into an ambulance he was in such a bad way.

I am not too worried about riding my bike in Canada.

The bloke I work with who got knocked off his bike is still off work, and still in pain. Bloody cars. Bloody stupid people driving them.
