Building a northern freeway will ensure that we become even more sprawled than we already are. More Tim Hortons and Walmarts and a soulless city. Having just moved back from the UK to London, I just cannot believe how huge the roads are here and how much sprawl we have. These developers that just want to push London further to Sprawlville should be slapped. How about we fill in all the empty spots and repurpose all the empty buildings first. London's downtown has loads of empty lots that could be built up.
I would completely halt road expansion and build a fantastic transit system - one that had proper Park and Ride facilities at all four ends of the city. Building more roads just means that the status quo is what we want.
