Ontario had issued generic ID cards for decades ... my Ontario Photo Card says 1986 on it.
Woo-hoo, Dufferin!
Given the manufacturer is out of business, and there's no staff left to refurbish and maintain these in the future, I'd think they are done. The only thing I can possibly ponder is a small run from Don Mills station under the 404 to a portal west of Consumers Road ... but I wouldn't be surprised if this was already in the bid documents ...

How does that work then? Children and car seat(s) at home. Car is about a 10-minute walk away. How do you get children and car seats to car ... or what to do with children when you get the car. I could see a couple of booster seats, which can be so light you can just clip them to a knapsack (did that once flying to Vancouver, when I realised the $30 booster seat was a lot cheaper than $14 times 14 days that Avis with no limits wanted ...).
The kids extracurricular schedules seldom involve cars. Most are walking distance, or along the streetcar line, or along the subway.
This is why I suggested "Bikes." "Streetcars" can wait for another decade, such that those who watched "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" when they were young would have young children of their own.
It's all about increasing the number of people within X distance of a subway. Nevermind whether that subway is going to be an effective part of a transportation network. Building the central stretch doesn't push that goal, as those people are already "served", by two lines!
