It's sadly true to form for the PC party to oppose Tory's modest user-pay proposal for the Gardiner and DVP without offering any credible alternative.  Mr. Brown's predecessor from the Niagara region was a Ford Nation cars and subways man, against all expert advice.  Now we have another rural PC party leader  weighing in on Toronto's mobility mess.  I get the political calculus: add voters from 905 and the kind of 416 people who support Mammoliti to the bedrock rural base, and the PC's have themselves a government to play with.  But the actual policy stinks.  GTA transportation planning has been dominated by suburban populists for so long that we are now approaching a mobility crisis in our region.  By  opposing Tory's baby step on tolls, Brown has signalled that the Wynne government - with all its many faults - is the only credible choice for any voters who care about the quality of life in the GTA.
