First, I understand CRA now taxes all parking at full price, but second, increasing the price of parking makes no difference if all you have is bad public transit.

It is a mistake of public transit advocates to try to browbeat people into taking city buses.

Right, so the same incentive is achieved by offering parking cash-out. I don't think Sun Life has done that either. If employees could get a free bus pass and then some cash instead of a free (I think?) parking pass that gets you a spot a shuttle bus ride away, it might be compelling enough to get some people to switch modes.

And I don't think the transit to Sun Life is bad. Though it'll certainly be better once iXpress starts stopping at Allen.
