Vancouver's sustainable transportation share was like 49% in 2019. Victoria and Montreal are similar. The rate falls as you go further into the suburbs, but that's another problem.

oh really? I live near Victoria (in Nanaimo) and the public transit is absolutely fucking terrible.

I guess if rent prices are ever not insane again in my lifetime then I could move to a larger city in Canada.

Vancouver and Montreal have the most convenient transit systems in North America outside of New York.

shame about the cost of living then, or I'd just move to one of those cities

Yeah, CoL in Vancouver is absolutely fucked. Supposedly it's not so bad in Montreal because they actually have missing middle housing.
