Most of us travel to work many times in one week. Some of us have a quick little trip and others spend hours on public transportation. This episode is all about that—travelling to and from work. Harp 1 and Maura talk about what commuting 2 is like in Canada, how people get to work, and how long it usually takes them. They also share their own experiences of getting to work every day. If you’re a commuter 4, listen to this episode on your way to work.
Harp:And then we’re gonna talk about our some of our own personal experiences with commuting.
Maura:You know, it is something very personal. Sometimes people love their commute 3, or they hate their commute. So people really have a strong feeling about it.
Harp:Yes. I definitely agree with you.
Maura:OK. So let’s start by talking about how people get to work in Canada.
Harp:Well, I have to be honest; most people get to work by car.
Maura:That is definitely true. I think, internationally, Canada and the US are known for drivers. People really like to drive around here.
Harp:Yeah. People love their cars and they love driving to work, or anywhere.
Maura:And most of the time, people are alone in their cars. So you have a car with one person driving to their workplace.
