“Congestion pricing” may be a solution posing as a miracle

The Toronto Star may be your best bet to understand the published labours of something called the Ecofioscal Commission relating to congestion and tolls. The commission’s conclusion is full of hope that the answer to congestion is tolls  The Ecofiscal thinkers have coined the expression “Congestion Pricing”. Okay. Tolls are certainly a solution to raising revenue. But our simplest brain process will tell us that congestion is always with us. There are ways to manage it but even Manhattan and the City of London have congestion despite high and multiple charges. Congestion Pricing may be a solution posing as a miracle. An alternate perspective is offered by some that Toronto’s congestion problem is mostly whining. Hey, just saying. On a minor note, Star writer Tess Kalinowski has fallen for the corruption of the word gridlock to describe congestion. It wouldn’t matter except there is something called gridlock and it needs a name. And you’re right  Nothing really happened in this post.
