Yes, but metrolinx isn’t there yet. Ontario lost 2 decades of transit expansion when Harris halted everything. The next gov’t didn’t do much until UP Express showed that it could be done. We are just starting to make up for lost time. We are in the unsexy infrastructure phase.

We have tried to get speed bumps (or traffic calming devices) on our street for years, and have met indifference from our councillor. People regularly do 70kmh on the street as it acts as a shortcut between two main roads. So far the best solution is people parking on the wrong side of the road.
