Where this comes from is more out of frustration that a) our property tax structure means that urban residents subsidize those making less sustainable choices and b) our municipal government structure is such that suburban councilors regularly veto attempts to improve the quality of urban neighbourhoods in the name of preserving their holy grail of car access for commuters.

While I agree with the general principal you've put forward... the investment into Lansdowne, Lebreton, LRT, Library, Civic hospital, $500M to revitalize downtown, etc. is all very urban instead of suburban.
