Durham Region (where my sister lives) (East of Toronto) actually has a pretty good set-up right now. They've essentially amalgamated their public transit systems so you can travel from Pickering to Oshawa on one fare and formed a partnership with the Go Bus system so you can take parts of your trip with them along Hwy 2 included in your DRT fare. It's not bad at all.

I'm TOLD that Vancouver has good transit, but I never cared for it when I lived there - but I guess because I was so used to Toronto.

Even where I live now (dumb little town of about 70,000 people) the transit is pretty good, my only complaint being that it doesn't run late enough at night.
