It's also infuriating that cars still take funding priority, when there's obviously a massive demand (and need) for more public transportation options here.

Yeah but then you would have to walk to the bus stop, which takes time away from me losing weight at the gym

I had a neighbour in Montréal who would drive to the same gym as me (700m away), and then walk on the treadmill for 10 minutes to warm up.

The part about exercise (walking) taking time away exercise (the gym) was a joke.
