I've always been reluctant to bother because I hate cycling on roads and never wanted to deal with an inevitable bike theft, but it might be worth repairing some vintage bike and use it to get around here. With the LRT being empty most of the time due to the pandemic, I would even take it on there without feeling like I'm obstructing everyone.
I'm looking to do the same but more in a starter bike. Does anyone have any recommendations where one could be found? The local bike shops don't seem to have much <$700.
Don't know what you are looking for, but a few weeks ago (I think) Waterloo Bike Shop had a lightly-used Marin Fairfax 2 available, I think under $500. Lots of things for sale locally on Kijiji, too, can't make any suggestions as I don't know what you are looking for.
