Agreed. Except sadly it is not the people in the GTA that will suffer, rather the people in Timmins. The vast majority of Ontario's muncipalities wouldn't survive with the massive transfers from the provinces for roads and highways alone. Toronto pays for the highways that run through it. So should the remaining municipalities....

So get ready for a trebling or more of property taxes in smaller municipalities to pay for the loss of subsidy from the Ontario government mainly paid by residents of the GTA. 

The GTA pays for Ontario.
