They could just toll non-residents of Hamilton and that would hit both birds with one stone. Not piss off Hamiltonians and still get the attention of Ontario. Nobody in Oakville is going to show up to destroy JP Danko because of tolls on outside residents and Janet isn't going to vote for John Smith instead of JP because of tolls that don't affect her. Problem solved.

Man, I should be a politician.
