It will fill up within a year due to induced demand and we will be short tens of billions. This ain’t it. When will Ontario learn that spending billions on more and wider highways will not fix car traffic?

Any serious plan to tackle car traffic must include better public tansit which gets drivers (read: car traffic) off the road.
