In my opinion, because she has taken her petty issue public, this woman deserves every bit of the mockery and derision that she will receive. The audacity of her selfishness and her completely irony-free indignation would be almost amusing if it weren't so nauseating. This all sits in the context that her wealth (and requisite McMansion) were obtained at least in part through her husband's role in designing and building these unsustainable neighbourhoods.
For once, the reader submitted comments beneath this Star article show (so far, anyway - the trolls haven't joined in yet) unanimous support for the public transit. Even most of those who personally choose cars over transit will still see that attempting to interfere with the right of others to use transit is a step too far. I hope that somehow this woman sees these responses and reconsiders how selfish her stance is in the context of greater society. However, I realize this is unlikely.
This woman is a relic from another age, a dinosaur with an outdated mindset, and her kind will be extinct in a few short decades. May she enjoy the rest of her days stewing silently behind her triple-glazed windows, staring glumly at her $100,000 lake view.
