Ebikes have really helped flatten things out in my area. I see plenty of couples in their 70s and 80s tooling around.

However they’re not cheap, and I think there should be tax incentives for buying them.

In Canada I’ve seen some places advertising a 500$ rebate for ebikes.

In BC it’s up to $1400 scaling with income!

I completely agree with the incentive, and in some countries there are.

For instance in France, there are government helps for buying ebikes.
