This government is incredibly misguided in its priorities in everything, but very much so here. Private automobiles are incredibly harmful to both the environment and society at large, and all governments have a critical moral imperative to actively work to reduce the use of cars.

The real issue here of course is that Ontario does not need Highway 413, or more detached single-family housing. We need to aggressively build mid-density housing and better public transit, and we need to end subsidies for driving, and start making motorists pay their fare share.

Furthermore, if this government was serious at all about reducing gridlock, they would be taking action against the police departments who actively refuse to enforce traffic laws. This of course is at odds with our Premier who had made it clear he believes police are above the law.
