the culture war around cars aside, our transit sucks. Fix that and maybe Ottawans won't drive.

Regarding parking - live in Centretown and try and have someone coming by car visit during the day. The hourly parking limit is all over the place. For instance, Bay St. is 3 hours, Percy and James are 2, but Gilmour and Florence are only 1. No rhyme or reason to it that I can see...
