Its fucking ALL of non metro Canada dude, not just the North, and thanks for implying that we dont matter/dont exist. Transit infrastructure is NOT cost effective outside the Cities here, and we arent a country shy on taxes

Don't need to worry about taxes, cities pay for them.

How do you expect cities to pay for things without tax money? Bus drivers, Road Workers, Repair People, etc. All gotta eat

City taxes pay for your suburbian lifestyle.
