I went from Guelph to Toronto recently for a baseball game with my partner. Via rail was somewhere between $40 and $50 (I forget the exact amount) per person each way. We drove instead.

In short, make transit a more viable option and maybe more people will use it.

I live in Hamilton and work in Milton, to use Go transit to get to work I would have to leave my house 3 hours before my shift, it's only 30km! What the hell is wrong with the GTA?!?

I'd love something like a Niagara - Kitchener go line and have Hamilton be a hub, really. I recently looked into commuting to Toronto for work, Yeah no, it's so bad for us non GTA but still Golden horseshoe people.
