Do you think you have the worst commute? Tell us why in the comments.
I swear like 60% of driver now day don'y give af to traffic law.
They think I'm the weird one for using turn signal
Saving you some time : (Because they used routes, not commutes corridors)
1) Highway 401 through Toronto (approx. Highway 427 → Yonge / central Toronto segment)
2) Autoroute 40 (Metropolitan / A-40) — Montréal (stretch between Pie-IX and A-520 / Côte-de-Liesse area)
3) Autoroute 15 (Décarie Expressway) — Montréal (A-40 ↔ Côte-Saint-Luc/NDG stretch)
4) Highway 1 / Port Mann corridor (Greater Vancouver — Port Mann → east/west approaches on Hwy-1)
5) Highway 102 / Bedford Highway corridor (Halifax Regional Municipality — Bedford ↔ Peninsula / Hwy-102 approaches)
Doug fords government is out to lunch 🤡
Vancouver’s Lions Gate bridge
Langley – Richmond in BC using Transit. More than 2 hours
Ottawa New Ways to bus is a joke.
lmao they all drive slower than speed limit and in the right lane 😀
Vancouver used to be far worse on Hwy 1 until they extended the skytrain with the Millenium Line and Canada Lines, and widened the Port Mann Bridge. The problem with Vancouver is that there is no direct access to a freeway from downtown and the number of narrow bridges that limit the number of options in/out of downtown.
So surprised that the CBC has allowed comments ! Our tax dollars pay your salaries and we should be allowed to comment on any clip . Why only this one ?
Life is too short for any commute BS ! Wasting a great portion of you salary on fuel and wear and tear on your vehicle!
“The worst commute has got to be in the one place I drive every day”
Try kenaston or lagimodiere at 4pm 🤮
My commute is anywhere from 30 mins to 1 hour and 45 mins. Depending on the day and time I start.
For those going across Toronto, making 407 free will reduce congestion.
Why not do that?
Suggesting another tax for driving in rush hour is not helpful.
Recommend that the government work on the following
1 – Increase the number of GO train and GO bus frequencies across Toronto
2 – Invest in providing a carpool apps and carpool parking that makes it easy for ride share
3 – Recommend that businesses set up satellite offices around GTA, so that people can be at the nearest location instead of everyone converging at the same location
When our minister of transport doesn't think anything but more lanes will help congestion
Idk in my opinion “the worst commute” has more to do with comfort than time, are Toronto highways busy ya, but your in the comfort of your car. Walking around the northern territories with no real roads seems worse in my opinion.
People are so dumb: live close to your work if you have to go into an office.
This was super interesting! Thanks!
5:53 So many tread marks on CBC's parking lot.
When I have to head downtown for a major doc appt, and not well enough to take public transit, I WILL be taking my car and WILL NOT want to pay a fee! Total BS to charge a fee. Toronto's public transit is crap.. It is not up to snuff enough to make it easier to take the TTC over driving into downtown. FIX the TTC and maybe that will change. 15 years and they still haven't got the Eglinton Crosstown LRT up and running… so no way will they have proper public transit to offer prior to traying to implement a user fee to drive. LOL
Problem with Toronto's transit network is it's poorly connected, unreliable, and unsafe. My route to work was all surface routes, so it takes the same time if not longer in a car (busses don't detour down side streets) and then you have to deal with smelly/crazy/dangerous people.
as someone who moved here in Canada from a 3rd world country I can survive the traffic here anywhere any day compared back home 😅
REBEL NEWS ALREADY DID THIS
Edmonton is fine —- it was worse pre-henday. They should have had 3 lanes all the way (probably 4) but oh well. I was in Calgary and the deerfoot was a mess at 2-3PM —- it goes from like 5 lanes to 4 to 3 to 2 to 5 to 4…. It's hilarious!
I'm surprised the Massey Tunnel didn't make it on there. Even with the carpool lane, when I used to take it we left Vancouver at 7am so it was only a 45min trip to south Delta.
My daily commute one way is 1.5-2hr
I think I may have one of Canada’s best commutes, I drive 60-80km 1 way, mostly backroads and highways, I rarely see another vehicle for the first 30 minutes
