Back in the spring, I wrote about a platform called Build Canada. More recently, this same group launched their first "city project" called Build Toronto (which is not to be confused with the city corporation that ultimately became CreateTO). Similar to Build Canada, they publish regular memos and advocate for policies and projects that will help build Canada's largest city.

Their most recent memo is by the CEO of A2X, Jamie McDonald, and it covers a topic that we discuss a lot on this blog: congestion pricing. Jamie talks about the drag that congestion has on the region's economy (upwards of $45 billion every year?), the numerous successes we can point to from around the world, and then lays out the following proposal:

• Create a downtown congestion pricing zone

• Introduce dynamic highway pricing across the GTA
