For. However, it needs to be implemented with a regional transit plan with concrete goals, otherwise it becomes nothing more than a cash grab.
To start, it should be implemented on the Gardiner ramps to York/Bay/Yonge Streets during rush hour. This is because this is closest to Union Station which is currently served by excellent transit from across the region during this time period. As regional rapid transit expands, more ramps can be tolled during more times. Eventually, entire stretches of local highways could be tolled, as long as there is a transit alternative available.
