I don't live in MTL -- just happened to go for a very pleasant vacation this summer -- and I don't think STM's current arrangement is especially punitive. Locals with monthly/weekly/3-day passes ride for free, and we visitors get a 24-hour bus/subway pass out of it. Instead of extorting money from passengers, STM seems to me to be rewarding them for using public transit regularly.
