The walkability, bike-ability is absolutely horrible in these American cities that have freeways running through the entire downtown/edge.

My point wasn't so much about whether having a highway was good or bad, but rather that tearing down the viaducts will not be as dramatic as Honda puts it to be given that he's the same guy who voted down the highway 50 years ago and ruined the lives of all Surrey people.
But i'm sure he'll come back here in 10-20 years to tell us how right he was and complain about how bad the traffic there is when he has to sit through 2 extra intersections during a Canucks game night.
