It's all a moot point. The provincial government would put the kibosh on any kind of tolling.

Remember that Toronto's proposal to toll the DVP and Gardiner was quashed by the Wynne Liberals. The PCs have even less appetite for the idea.

Personally, I think something will have to be done in future as electrics become a larger proportion of the privately-owned vehicle fleet in Ontario and fuel tax revenues wane; perhaps a charge based on km-driven. At that point, maybe the charges can be varied by place (e.g., want to drive in central Toronto? it will cost more per km) or route.
