Toronto Has the Third Worst Traffic in the World! Fallout from Massive Immigration


WOW! Toronto has for some time preened itself as a “world class city.” Well, it now has the worst traffic gridlock in North America, and the third worst in the world.The costs to motorists, both in terms of wasted time and nerves is heavy. The CP 24 (January 11, 2024), of course, doesn’t explain why. It’s simple — mass immigration, 125,000 yearly over two decades with almost no new roads built, and, all the while, the war on car and crippling of existing roads with bicycle lanes and lanes often arbitrarily blocked off with cones and no construction in sight.
“Toronto has topped the list of the most congested cities in North America, beating out both New York and Mexico City, according to new traffic data released by navigation and location technology company TomTom.

The company, which released its annual traffic index on Thursday, ranked Toronto third on a list of the most congested cities in the world, falling behind only London and Dublin. According to the index, it takes Toronto commuters an average of 29 minutes to complete a 10-kilometre trip, 50 seconds longer than it took just last year. Toronto’s drivers have only a slightly better commute compared to Dublin, where it takes 29 minutes and 30 seconds to go 10 kilometres. In London, the city identified in the index as having the worst traffic globally, it takes 37 minutes, 20 seconds to travel that distance.

Torontonians lost an average 98 hours in 2023 due to rush-hour traffic.”
