Hi there,
I don't know if you guy's already have seen this but this is what I Came across:

The Province of Ontario is in the process of passing Bill 241 which will effectively eliminate all forms of Street Legal Motorsports in this province. This draconian bill is aimed at the very small percentage of drivers who race on public roads but in the process it penalizes the many law-abiding citizens who follow the rules and race on properly regulated and sanctioned racetracks. Enforcement is left to the discretion of the police but this is not acceptable. Close reading of the Bill indicates that a person can have their vehicle impounded for having things such as over-sized tires/wheels, modified and/or dual exhausts, modified intake systems, roll bars and roll cages, five or six-point safety belts, hood scoops, spoilers and other perceived problems. Passing of this bill will result in the loss of many jobs in the aftermarket industry, the tire industry, the speed shops and specialty exhaust shops. It will mean that a driver cannot take his customized/modified car or truck to a local cruise night as he or she could lose the vehicle. It would allow the police to set up outside cruise night venues and race tracks and stop vehicles exiting or entering the events. The ironic part is that the Province has done a great job of instituting standards for all street driven vehicles, requiring them to be certified for both safety and emissions. Bill 241 flies in the face of these advancements.
Every citizen of Ontario who feels this bill to be unjust is urged to contact their local Member of the Provincial Legislature and register their concerns. Also letters to Premier Ernie Eves would be in order.

**** CANADA if they pass this bill into law. I'll be making many trips there just to **** of the local constabulary.

Its not a Canadian Law they are trying to pass. It's in Ontario. Besides, most people say it won't even be passed!

Apex i ITR

Hey there isn't anything else in Canada but Toronto so my comment still stands

Okay maybe Vancouver and Montreal.

Well I can't argue that. A third of Canada is is Ontario alone

BTW:

I deleted the *** from the title because I want the rules in here to stand out first.

Sorry, but I'm sure you understand.

The fact that this has moved this far through the legislature shows what a joke the Canadian political structure really is.
I say we organize a massive cruise, and cram up the Ontario Legislature buildings.

Apex i ITR

I gotta drive up there anyway in March.... I'll be flying in on Feb though.
