OK , as long as we apply that to roads as well . No more fees for roads on property tax bills , no more gas tax , etc . Charge each driver using tolls preferably per mile of road driven . Just like zonal transit fares which would be nice to have in T . O . Pay your marginal utility for the service you receive . Fair is fair right ? And before you say gas taxes , registration , etc covers all the costs of roads , that ' s wrong . We have general revenue that goes towards covering roads . Never mind the cost of other externalizes associated with driving . Given that the TTC has a 70 % fare box recovery , it probably would be the least exposed to this type of user pays approach to travel . I ' d be down for such a system , sadly it ' ll never happen .
