Just had a colleague tell me at the gym that he routinely ends up spending 1-1.5 hrs at peak traffic. He lives in Alta Vista. Works at Carling. He leaves early to avoid traffic in the morning. Said it's hard to avoid in the afternoon. So yes, we're absolutely getting/going there whether you (and others) want to admit or not. It's not like folks in the GTA wanted 2 hrs commutes in traffic either. They simply underinvested and got there. Ottawa won't be different.
