You live in Canada where there is no other option and yet somehow a significant portion of your neighbors don't own cars. Wonder how that words, Rab.
All my neighbours own cars. Literally every single one
You're using "neighbor" to mean, "people who's property is directly or nearly directly adjacent to mine". This is a shitty little trick of sophistry where you pretend to be obtuse so you don't have to acknowledge the obvious fucking point. I guarantee you, I fucking GUARANTEE you, there are people in your city who don't own cars. How do they do it, Rab? How do they do it?? There are no other options!!
Are you ok? My nearest neighbour is 3km away. You need to own a vehicle
