From Canadian Biker website:<br /><br />"While Quebec defines motorcycles as passenger vehicles, and as such must be fitted with winter tires for the season, there are in reality no such things as DOT- or Transport Canada-approved snow tires for motorcycles.

Let’s face it: very few people ride motorcycles in blizzards, though it has been done, I can assure you. But the government’s response was overly simplistic: No motorcycle riding at all on the bracketed dates."<br /><br />Makes me glad to be in Ontario.
