The current government is removing tolls from highways it controls and just uploaded the Gardiner away from Toronto. Unfortunately not happening without a big change in government and probably will never work with the self-interested (even if misdirected) vote from the GTA being so important...
Would be a good idea though! As is well proven elsewhere in the world, congestion pricing is unpopular until people start having less congested highways and don't think its so bad after all.
