These improvements can't come soon enough

Transit mode share in Vancouver is low enough that it should have still been growing despite the drop in travel demand caused by COVID. Bus service should have been expanded rather than moved from the core to the suburbs. In Victoria, bike trips grew through COVID, despite a drop in total travel.

Overall ridership is growing however, bus ridership in the core is dropping. This is because TransLink is moving service from the core to the suburbs rather than expanding service.

Not just bizarre, but factually wrong.

A lot of other busses use the Douglas Street corridor. Combined volumes on Douglas ranged from 24,000 to 63,000 passengers per day in 2019.

There are a significant number of car light households. However, 1 car per worker is the standard by a wide margin. The data is from Victoria which has the second lowest car mode share in Canada.
