I mean, there's literally hundreds of other roads. If you lack the imagination of not having it, you could also just drive in using one of the other roads and experience it in real life...or take the subway in, or the GO Train.
It really is amazing (in a problematic way) how little people are able to imagine change in their daily lives, no matter how that change really is quite minor in the grand scheme of things.
Like are you honestly telling me that if the Gardiner didn't exist, that driving down Black Creek Dr. or Avenue Rd. (or whatever other road is more convenient) would change anything about your day other than the road you drove on for the last 20 minutes of your trip to Toronto? What exactly do you fear would happen?
Just like you think people like myself lack imagination, you lack understanding that not everybody or everything fits into your lens..
