Most cities in North America are trying to improve public transit. Unfortunately most cities in North America were also built at peak car idealism and therefore built around it and people don't want to be taxed for things because we're short sighted.
As a result things move slow. It's pretty clear the direction municipalities are moving in, but clearly it's not going to happen overnight, or even in a decade and that's just reality.

Whoa buddy when did this become about Calgary vs Vancouver? That's all you, I'm afraid.
As for your other points, I completely AGREE.
