"Sarkaria said at a morning news conference that Highway 407 would not be included in such a ban since it is "privately-owned.""

Oh so solving nothing. Thanks dougie.

The fact that the 407 east of Brock road is not free means that this promise is already broken. Ontarians own the part from Brock road to highway 35/115.

Toronto should toll the Gardiner and 401, or implement congestion charges before the province makes that near-impossible.

That's just silly. Anything one Parliament can legislate another Parliament can unlegislate. A bill with no effects
