I ' m deciding between Pryor and crowder . Crowder has been so consistent but doesn ' t always get lots of targets . Pryor is basically guaranteed targets <| sep |> So basically people who hateall comedy ? <| sep |> The thing is when you look at the cordon reports there really isn ' t that many 905 ' ers as everyone thinks . The MississaugaToronto border sees traffic at par , that is how many people commute from Toronto to Mississauga for work now . People in Toronto are giving up on the TTC and driving . You are going to end taxing your own taxbase further . Most of those people on the Gardiner and DVP are originating in the megacity suburbs like North York , Scarborough , Etobicoke , etc . If you exempt them , you aren ' t left with enough drivers to justify building the system . And the GO service just keeps improving , less and less people are driving in from those outer burbs . The other thing is the logistics of this . The companies that specialize in building tolling systems are soooo crooked . Accenture Presto , SNCLavalin banned by the world bank , Cintra 407 , etc . They are going to stretch those project costs out for years and milk taxpayers dry . And they WILL get that contract no matter what . Their hooks are deep . I have said it before , and I will say it again . Raise the HST back to 15 %, and give the 2 % back to the city it was collected in . That is , create a municipal portion to complement the provincial and federal portion . It is the perfect mechanism . It taxes consumption , it is turnkey with no construction needed , and items essential to lower and middle classes like basic food , medicaldrugs , baby clothes , feminine hygeine , transit , etc . are all exempt . The Ontario government is expected to raise $ 24 B next year from sales tax . Extrapolating from that would mean $ 6 B in municipal tax revenue province wide collected . Considering the sheer amount of business in Toronto big and small , that would mean billions a year in new revenue . It would unlock lots of revenue for other cities too , and they could even lower property taxes if they so choose to pass the savings on .
