A Statistics Canada survey on the time Canadians spend commuting to and from work has crowned Toronto as the city requiring the most patience.
In 2010, residents of Toronto’s Census Metropolitan Area (CMA) took 33 minutes to get to work. Montreal’s CMA isn’t far behind with an average of 31 minutes.
In both cities, more than a 25% of commuters took 45 minutes or longer to get to work in 2010, while an additional 25% took 30 to 44 minutes.
Vancouver (30 minutes), Ottawa-Gatineau (27 minutes) and Calgary (26 minutes) round out the top 5.
Among the full-time workers who took 45 minutes or more to get to work, 36% described most of their days as somewhat or very stressful. Of those who commute 15 minutes, 23% said they felt stressed.
Montreal, Canada's automotive hell
However, it is in Montreal that the drive is the most painful - 30 minutes being required to reach destination. Toronto follows closely with an average of 29 minutes while Vancouver is doing much better at 25 minutes.
