But what do I know, I live in a "600sq. ft. downtown apartment" and by that I mean a 1000sq. ft. detached bungalow in Sunnyside that is still a 15min walk to work...

The weird thing is I don't actually mind the fees. If the city charged anywhere near what transit costs and gave half way decent services everyone would probably be happy.
But we all know what they charge will have no relation to services. They've got a gym to build.
