But they aren't. Even most of our residential streets are pretty dangerous at signed speeds of 40 kph and designed to accomodate 50-60 kph.

They can. But they don't. I live off Ogilvie. There's no way, I'm riding a bike in the painted bike gutter there with 60-80 kph traffic speeds a foot or two away. And I don't think these stroada will get protected bike lanes in my lifetime.
