That's an excellent question. I will say a couple of things.
Number one, really my message is to give people more of a choice. Right now if you live in downtown Montreal, Toronto, or Vancouver, you have a choice. You don't have to have a car if you don't want one. But if you are in the 905 area, suburban Montreal, or rural communities, obviously you have to have a car because there's no viable transit to get you anywhere, other than the commuter rail during the morning and evening rush hours. What I've heard from my experience in talking to people in the Toronto area is that they're prepared to pay more provided the money is dedicated to providing that increased transit service. That's the number one message I've heard over and over again.
I'll use the GO Transit system as one example. Every time GO puts a new train on, it's instantly full and it's still standing room only. It's a bottomless pit in terms of demand. In fact, what we need to do is to not have this rush hour commuter service. We need to convert the GO system into a regional rapid transit service, and it should be electrified, no question about it. But the fact of the matter is that you shouldn't even have to have a schedule. You should know there's going to be a train every 15 minutes, like in Europe. That's the direction we have to go in.
With respect to cars, there will always be cars, whether they're gasoline, electric, or whatever, and I fully understand that. The thing is that people will need to provide that range of choices and options.
