Parking “should” be difficult
Some experts say parking shouldn’t be made easier and car use should be restricted in the city. It’s a hard sell.

This is the only way to reach our climate goals while also making the city a better, healthier and more pleasant place to live. But it needs to be accompanied by investment in public transit. It’s not enough to not cut STM funding – the STM needs a massive funding boost so that buses all over the city are running frequently enough that people don’t feel they’re sacrificing something by leaving their car at home. (PM’s investment in boosting metro frequencies has really paid off, but the metro doesn’t go everywhere and the bus system has been sadly neglected.)
