The alternative is people will just drive. Don't accommodate that guy on Islington, and you think he will care? No, he will just hop in a car.
And in a city the size of Toronto, having people living 15 KM from the city centre is not far out in the North American context.

Why will transit fail? Because people expect to be subsidized for living on the
periphery? The outer region of the City is not dense eoungh for subways. A buried Eglinton east line to Kennedy will lose money and then everyone is complaing that TTC is losing (even more) money. People cannot have it both ways.
