Sprawl isn't that easy to deal with. There's more than enough land around the city that if council decided to not appropriate more land (or whatever it is ... limit sprawl) some developer will just gobble up land right on the outskirts and give people what they want. Of course, that's just my completely uneducated opinion. Look at what's happened in Winnipeg after all the land insider the Perimeter was used up: developers developed outside it.
Airport tunnel for the NE. The decision to not go ahead with it was disgusting IMO and politicians would not have gotten away with it if the proposal was for any other quadrant of the city.
Increased focus on those TOD things.
LRT improvements - fast track the transition to 4-car platforms, 8th AVE LRT tunnel, SE LRT.
