All this much cheaper but won't help those in Eastern Gatineau commute or land developers build new houses so isn't discussed.
I am all for linking Gatineu and Ottawa more but transit should be where we go with that. We have a lot of bridges already and no rapid or even semi rapid link unless you count the bus lane that quickly ends on the Ottawa side.

I would agree we probably don't need a new bridge.
The real problem is with the approaches from the 417 to the M-C on the Ontario side.
