Toronto city councillors have raised questions about the number of e-bikes and e-scooters using sidewalks, and whether police should be given permission to confiscate them.

E-bikes are permitted in the city for those over 16 years of age, and are only to be used on roads, not sidewalks, according to the city website. E-scooters are not allowed to be operated in Toronto for those of any age.
