I'm Canadian and own a car but I was finally able to move to an urban part of my city around 5 years ago and it's been so great.
Like, my car broke nearly two months ago and I haven't had the money to fix it, but it hasn't been a problem at all. I own a bike and an escooter so I've just been walking and using those. If it wasn't for visiting family who live in places only accessible by car I'd get rid of mine entirely
Make them visit you instead 😈
My car needed a clutch and throw-out bearing and I only changed them last weekend. It sat for a month and half before I could get back to Ottawa to fix it in my parents’ driveway but until then it didn’t really matter. I don’t even drive it much when it does work!
