Oh, it’s not just Canada. If you post this in a German forum (you know, home of one of the densest public transport networks in the world), suddenly everyone lives in a remote village in the Black Forest and has to drive 40 km each day to work. It’s also always impossible for them to choose where to live and work, and when asked how people who cannot afford to buy a car or cannot drive at all manage to do so they suddenly get very aggressive. 🤷‍♀️

That much. Wow. Sad!

Taxis are popular because there’s too much traffic. Yeah, okay…

So New York doesn’t have homeless people, drugs, and crime? Or is NYC not a high-density area? Or why are there 8 million trips daily?

but that's the barrier

No, it is not the barrier. It is one possible barrier, and if you want to remove all possible barriers before you start, guess what, you’ll never start.

“We need to have higher density! But we can’t have that because of parking minimums! But we can’t get rid of parking minimums because we have no public transport! But we can’t have public transport without higher density!” 🥳

they still wouldn't take it because

Those people will always find a reason. Now it’s to dirty and unsafe. Now it’s too expensive. Now I relocated and the train doesn’t stop here.
