Not an excuse: the lines are clearly visible even if zebra markings would be better. More importantly, while I don’t know Canadian laws, usually pedestrians have the right of way regardless. You can’t just use the excuse that you were going too fast to stop, you can’t be angry at them because you hit them, and you can’t just take off.
