Living in Montréal, I'm happy to see this article. The highways / traffic situation is horrible here, but I will point to one example in particular.

Getting to the airport: there is no way to get to the airport easily. There is a dedicated bus line that might get stuck in traffic for 10$, or you pay 35$ for Uber, or 50$ for a normal cab (which also might both get stuck in traffic). You need to plan at least 2 hours from your house to get there, often 3 hours in advance for your flight. I've taken the bus dozens of time, and you can see the faces of the poor passengers, realizing they thought 1h to get 20KM away would be enough.

I go back and forth to Amsterdam and the difference is embarrassing. I get to Schiphol, hop on a train (every 5 mins), it costs 5 euros and I'm at Central Station in 15 minutes.

Light train? metro extension? How hard can it be?
