Montreal demonstration honours pedestrians and cyclists killed by drivers - Canadian Cycling Magazine

Every city should be doing this, each weekend, until we can walk and cycle safely without the risk of multi-ton bullets killing us.
There are regular technical checks for cars but no checks for the mental state of drivers.
Everything is slow to put in place, always the same mechanisms of domination relationship.
Is it that difficult to design safe cycle routes?
It is when the majority (drivers) don't want them. I once asked a city rep why we allowed people in our bike lanes, and the answer I got was that you either allow people to park in bike lanes, or you don't get bike lanes.
Citing that people will complain to no end if the idea of more cycling infrastructure is mentioned. Motorists are far too entitled, and their feelings have far too much sway, in my opinion.
That’s crazy though, because most drivers hate cyclists slowing everything down. Having lanes dedicated for them would fix that by getting them out of the way.
Really? I've only ever needed to safety when transferring between provinces.
I did have regular check ups in Ontario, but it was only emissions, nothing mechanical.
