I liked the comment about the fact that people are using anecdotal evidence to make decisions.
However, we've heard what the witnesses told us. One witness in particular spoke of the cost of the reducing one tonne of carbon dioxide emissions. The cost is huge. This measure costs about $4,000 per new user, and it hasn't even managed to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.
We can better direct our efforts to reduce the greenhouse gas effect. Above all, we can use other ways to reduce the carbon dioxide emissions that enter our atmosphere.
We've even heard this measure didn't significantly increase the number of public transit users. We must find measures that will actually use our resources where they're most likely to improve the situation. That's why the government is proposing major investments in public transit systems to improve the service offering, so that all Canadians can use public transit more easily and can have easier access to it across the country.
