You do realize that roads & highways will never have the capacity of subways & other mass transit, right? Take for example, the ~18-lane 401 - quite a colossal beast it is isn't it? And of course, prone to massive delays and as such, long commute times...yet it moves less people (through Toronto) every day than the Yonge-University-Spadina subway line, which consumes a minimal amount of surface space and for the most part, moves at fast pace (even if trains are often overcrowded). And do you really want the 1.5 million people that use the TTC every day to then crowd onto the already overcrowded road & highway network?
And not everyone (most people, probably) has the luxury of going into work whenever they feel like, or working from home. And when already working full days, no one should have to go early & leave late just to avoid third-world level traffic jams, as would exist in your transit-less city.

Ontario has become the backstore of Canada by having this massive highway infrastructure, this comes with a load of jobs.
Ping me when containers will be able to take the subway.
