Toronto Mayor John Tory pitched plans for road tolls on the Gardiner Expressway and Don Valley Parkway, key highways that carry tens of thousands of commuters into the city. Thousands of those affected will be Hamilton commuters who drive into Toronto each day. For Hamilton residents who commute into the city for work or pleasure, and businesses that rely on the highways to transport goods in and out of Toronto, that may be a price too high to pay. According to 2011 Statistics Canada data, 6,835 people commute from Hamilton to Toronto daily. @CBCHamilton I have to commute into Toronto and it makes perfect sense to me — @eatboots@CBCHamilton Maybe Toronto Council and Mayor Tory need to control their spending.
