Tights are not pants
LET'S BE CLEAR
The wearing of tights as pants is an abomination. TIGHTS ARE NOT PANTS.
Sure in the context of sports, ballet, hair metal, and renaissance fairs, tights function as suitable leg coverings, but still they are not pants.
No. These are not activities that transform tights into pants; these are historically acceptable acts of PANTLESSNESS.
Tights as pants leave nothing to the imagination. Tights as pants are an affront to those of us who PREFER NOT TO KNOW the most intimate details of their neighbors' bodies.
Tights as pants are the fashion equivalent of Too Much Information . This gratuitous divulgence of assets repels where the tights-as-pants wearer presumably hopes to entice.
We have tired of tolerating attempts to force tights into this non-native garment category, and have decided to do something about it?

yes.
The most interesting bit is that it took a campaign to end the practice of wearing tights as pants for me to become aware that people were wearing tights as pants.
it's called fashion. it will get to canada in due time.
It was already in Canada and still is. But lately I only see the well-formed wearing them. Still not what I want to rest my eyes on in a line at the airport.
