In Canada, there's a transit penalty. It takes longer, is not reliable, and costs a fortune.
Taking the train to Ottawa from Toronto cost me $700 for my family of four last year. It would have been cheaper to rent a car.
But my federal government insists they are the most pro environment party. My prime minister marched with Greta Thunberg no less! (Then approved an off shore oil well within weeks).
@chu @o_andras @humantransit Sadly, I don't think much of that is unique to Canada 😠
