They aren’t really unless you live pretty far out and you’re headed to the other end of the city. Like 35-50 minutes depending on traffic from Stoney N to 22x.
Especially now with since COVID, downtown commutes are pretty basic unless the weather is insane. Most days you can get from the outer areas to downtown in about 20-25 minutes. Inner city is like… 10 minutes. Long commutes are definitely not an issue for most people here.
