City staff are also studying several new taxes, including a commercial parking lot levy and a tax that would target foreign home buyers. They're expected to report back to council in 2024.

Chow is candid when asked if the city will need more revenue tools.

"Yes," she said. "There will be."

Heck yeah, Chow. Tax the fucking traffic away. I have no clue how people afford $35/day parking as it is, if the tax caused parking rates to increase it could convince people to take transit more.
