More roads equal easier commute which means more people buy cars and move out of the city. They should be focusing on lowering housing costs in the city and investing in public transit.
It's Toronto, how many people didn't already have cars? It's not exactly London or New York City.
I'm in BC. We have a car, but traffic into Vancouver is heavy in the morning so I take the Bus connector and Skytrsin. I get to work almost in same amount of time. More transit with better schedules reduces traffic much faster than adding lanes.
