According to
StatsCan, there were ~220,000 "motorcycles and mopeds" registered in the province of Ontario in 2016. It's a good bet a large number of those registrants are voters, and you might be able to effectively double that if you consider the parents, spouses, adult children and extended family members of motorcyclists who also care about their safety.
So let's be generous and say a something like half-million votes might be available as a political lobbying force in the province. Consider that in the 2014 provincial election the popular vote gap between Wynne and Hudak was around 350,000 votes; it's possible that an effective and politically meaningful lobby
could be established in this province to advocate at the highest levels on our behalf. This would be important for issues involving Ontario-specific legislation (e.g. the HTA and how its use by enforcement and the province often endangers us despite empirical evidence from other jurisdictions that practices like filtering are safer...)
In Canada as a whole the number of such registrations was 716,000: using the "family and friend" extension logic, you we could say that a lobby of more than a million voters could, in theory, be constructed Canada-wide. This would be important for strengthening penalties for criminal code of Canada offenses such as dangerous driving.
If you want to make real change for us it's not going to come about from bake sales and social events. It's going to be lobbyists walking into candidates offices and saying "I have half a million voters in my pocket. Here is what they're looking for. ... How can you help them and earn their votes?" It's a concerted media campaign showing motorcyclists as family people, brothers, sisters young and old being mashed daily by careless and distracted driver and essentially shaming police for focusing on loud pipes instead of going after those using their "devices" while driving (
distracted driving now the leading cause of fatal road crashes in Ontario).
The problem is any political "organizations" we have are feckless and/or just useless clubs of poseurs wanting patches on their assless chaps or full-race suits. The problem is
us: we suck for being too loosely associated, too "independent" and too lazy to do anything. Media campaigns and lobbyists aren't cheap. Who wants to pony up "dues" to support this cause? Such an effort could be in the tens of millions of dollars with no assurance of a positive outcome; how much are we each willing to pay to such a group?
