There was one guy on the DailyHive comment section who thinks exactly that:
Quote:
Why go to Metrotown if Surrey is such a great city? You're only proving my point. You should be able to do everything a city provides in Surrey. Trips beyond need only be irregular occurrences in which a transfer is no big deal.
Meanwhile Surrey benefits with transit that encourages people to stay local. A local population supporting it's local economy is what builds cities. Long commutes with nothing to offer in between builds suburbs - aka huge small towns.
What are you looking for in a city?
