Ontario Greens Leader Mike Schreiner has criticized Premier Doug Ford’s suggestion of buying back Highway 407 as a means to alleviate gridlock on the 400-series highways. He argues that the sale of Highway 407 was a poor financial decision that has led to severe congestion on Highway 401. Schreiner advocates for subsidizing truck tolls on the 407 as an immediate and cost-effective solution to reduce traffic on the 401, emphasizing that this straightforward plan has yet to be acted upon by the government.
