Who commissioned the report from the Conference Board of Canada? Based on their report "Where the Rubber Meets the Road: How Much Motorists Pay for Road Infrastructure", they seem to have a tendency to slant the report in a way the commissioning group will find favourable. In that particular report, for the CAA, they seem to do everything they can to minimise the how much of road maintenance costs are assigned cars and maximise how much revenue (fuel taxes, licensing fees) rather than trucks, in order to make cars seem economically palatable.
The report is part of an ongoing series of reports on major cities' economies.
