New Yorkers don't have to cross an ocean to see good transit. Even closer to New York at just a day's train ride, the third busiest North American transit system is Montreal.

I was recently there to visit - the metro is beautifully efficient, on-time, clean, and frequent. Trains every 4 minutes during work hours like clockwork. Connected to an extensive underground pedestrian network downtown, and frequent bus service outside of the core (even on Sundays).
And an unlimited weekend pass valid on both the bus and metro was only ~13 USD.
