Also, the government telling everyone that they have to shell out 500$ for winter tires doesn't strike me as something that will go over well with a largely conservative, less-government-interference-the-better mentality that is so prevalent here.

It's not just the $500+ for winter tires, there's also the storage of those tires and potential extra set of steelies. For people living in the core in apartments, storing tires for 6 months of the year would be a huge additional cost.
