I don't understand the objection.

People living in rural areas of Canada represent less than 16% of the population (and even fewer drivers, since that number includes children).

Everyone else lives close enough to "everything" and don't need to use their car for "everything".

And people living in cities or the suburbs for sure don't need a large truck.

And people in rural areas don't need 4 lane stroads.

So where is this huge need to continue building things out for more cars?

For what it's worth, I'm often in rural Ontario... On my non-electric bike. Unless I'm hauling a thousand pounds, it seems more than reasonable to see an ebike work quite well in those areas, too.

If you need to use a car or truck, then use a car or truck. Most people don't for the majority of their trips.
