Ridiculous strawman with no evidence.
Neither "urbanists", nor Ottawa residents as a whole control what happens outside Ottawa's urban boundary. It's up to those cities and towns to build the transit they need. I'm not sure what somebody living in the Golden Triangle has to do with the decision of commuters in Rockland or Embrun, to drive.
If the province wants to subsidize their commutes with an Ottawa GO bus system, that's the perogative of Queen's Park. But I certainly don't want my transit dollars catering to them when we have so many Ottawa residents who need improved services.
