Saying hello and welcome to the club Melbourne.
Canadians in Ontario sold their toll highway for a quick buck years ago to a private firm. Worst decision ever, and we still pay the tolls.
Though I guess with our local governments track recorded in keeping public infrastructure maintained the 407 would have probably been closed for safety concerns over comple lack of maintenance.
