I always let riders to pass between me and next car. If possible, I actually slightly move out of way and wave them. It does not make sense for me to let a rider sit in sweltering heat on Gardiner West parking lot.

No mention of passing on the right because you are simply not suppose to!
In Canada we pass on the left, unless you are passing a street car, or the vehicle on your left is making a left turn.

Right lane is often the fast lane these days.

If you're being passed on the right it usually means you are in the wrong lane.

Read the post that responded to yours... just before the the post you quoted... section 150.. all about passing o the right.

You know those things have built in sanders for in the winter,
:I makes them hard to pass in deep snow.

If traffic isn't moving at all doesn't that mean the left lane is free from overtaking traffic? It can't be overtaking anyone if it's not going anywhere. If traffic is moving you're not filtering, you're splitting.

Passing a stationary vehicle is still considered overtaking.

You question states "left lane is free from"... reading the laws.. they state "to the left".
That rule is stating that before you pull out to the left to pass.. you have to make sure it's clear, that someone behind you hasn't already pulled out and started to pass you... that you're not pulling out infront of that overtaking vehicle.

So I can't drive down my one-way street for half the month because vehicles are stationary on the left during that half of the month and I can't pass on the right?

You are not passing traffic you are passing legally parked vehicles.

Fair. Although section 150 doesn't say that makes it ok. Then again, I don't see how the highways in Toronto would function at all if you aren't allowed to pass on the right except if someone is turning left. I guess I just won't worry about it much.

If that was a multi-lane one way road with parking, you should probably still be passing on the left of traffic
unless it's stop and go, then you should just be careful



if you are on water at the time then you go by nautical law, pass anywhere you can with safety.
