Most of the commuter trains are also overcrowded during rush hours, especially the Deux-Montagnes line.

And buses... The reserved bus line that is running between Brossard and downtown running at full capacity, and the replacement of the line by a modern LRT line is in planning since a decade now. Same thing for Park Avenue and Pie-IX lines.
Tell me about it. Vancouver's trains are also overcrowded... and they come every 60 seconds during rushhour.
