I absolutely agree with you. I would also add that, in theory, implementing this plan and using the Alexandra Bridge also has the potential to greatly reduce interprovincial car traffic. As a large portion of interprovincial commuters are Gatineau residents working in Ottawa, and 75% of them commute by car, perhaps providing direct, efficient, and fast transit to central Ottawa will incentivize many of them to leave their car at home and take transit to work. Not to mention that rush hour traffic on the bridges is terrible, and a faster alternative might just get them to switch transportation modes.
